E.g. you won't be able to delete your poor results to boost your rating. The rating and the Workbook are a different set of data and are independent. Just FYI.

We had several users report having an issue with answering their questions with the timer - answer choices blinking all the time. This is a browser cache issue and to get rid of it, you can do CTRL+F5 or Clear your cache in the browser settings menu. Thank you. If you have any other issues, please report them here or via PM. |

I missed the date feature that is present now The reason for deleting was that I felt my workbook is full of attempted questions whereas the required info gained for the practice questions is part of my notes.. BTW, I never even thought of deleting my poor results to boost the score

Thank you. I am sorry, I did not mean to imply that anyone did or you did specifically. It was rather a statement to anyone curious how the recommendations happen. Which I don't know if that's good or bad since nobody will see your results and if one wanted to skew them one way or another, then why not.... sure. Though the usefulness of the tool would go down. P.S. Once you have have taken about 10 questions in each subforum, you will get a GMAT score estimate.

Thanks bb. YES, as long as there is a timer in a question, it will count, so you don't have to take the questions suggested in the workbook. The random questions we pull into the workbook, are the questions that you have not taken (I think) and they are average difficulty.

The questions rotate. One day you get ps and cr and the following day it is DS and SC. The weekend is time off so the next recommendation will be on Monday. There is no RC recommendations since it is pretty darn hard to measure the RC timing performance and difficulty. Thank you for the questions! Posted from my mobile device.

This not how it works for me; When I complete the suggested questions for PS, they all turn to grey, and after a while new set of question again in PS. Since the first day of this amazing capability, I just recieved PS and CR questions, although I have completed them about three times.
