Can anyone give me notes on verbal? If at all someone has made

None of my personal notes survived I think but out of memory, here’s that maybe something helpful. It is old but still relevant minus SC/AWA.

PS unless of course you are in the crowd of people who think that GMAT focus questions are completely different from the old GMAT 🫠

Hey can you more elaborate how real test questions were difficult than gmat club tests or vice versa and why you scored 70-80 points below than your avg score or official exam was more difficult than official mock and gmat club.Thanks

So how would you rank GMAT prep exams versus GMAT Club exams versus the official test?

I get complaints from people that GMAT Club tests are too hard so I want to have somebody else provide a good answer. How did you feel about the difficulty? And did you run out of time on your official test or would you think sunk the score ?

I think before you rush into next steps which is frankly amuch better idea than collapsing or morning so use the setback to motivate you to propel your forward but I think first it’s very important to do a bit of postmortem and understand was this a systemic issue with test taking or was this a bad day or was the lack of certain skills or knowledge... the official tests can be very unpredictable is what I’ve learned over the years and people report having absolutely very different experiences. Part of it is based on what questions are being served. For example, hr1212 had five of his first questions on the GMAT, being some of the hardest he has encountered. Then it was super easy after that. The funny part is that if Gmat Club tests did something like this, we would have a ton of complaints with people educating me about how the test is not like their official test ... now I deserve some education but to a limit.

Awesome, someone’s using it 🙌

But I think it’s important to do some thinking about your test experience and why your score sunk. I see you have some test from a few weeks ago with some really good results, using the new algorithm and that proves you absolutely have the ability and skill set so the bottom line is what went wrong. Unfortunately I wasn’t there at the test so that’s why I’m asking you 🫠

Ah. Yes, I always gave up on my verbal section when that happened to me. I thought I bombed it because I was guessing a lot of the questions, something like 55% certainty between two answers and 45 for the wrong answer. Very very small margin of certainty. Surprisingly ended up getting 96th percentile but at the same time I felt like I failed the test and I dreaded.... Could it be that the adaptive algorithm by giving you hard questions when you were performing really well threw you off?

Have you taken any GMAT prep tests in the last month?
