Hey ,
I just wanted to know how accurate are the questions on the knewton sc set . They seemed way too easy . I got 20/21 of them correct and most of the questions took only like 30-40 secs to do .

That's pretty impressive. What percentile did you get?

P.S. I have seen your other posts and you seem to have quite high practice test scores. What are you getting on GMAT Prep and full tests?

Hi bb ,

I think I got a percentile of 90 or something ( don't remember the exact figure) . I haven't taken any gmat prep tests as yet because I don't want to waste them right now . I was really surprised by my score on the knewton sc set because I haven't even touched the manhattan gmat sc book or the OG yet . Maybe the knewton sc has only easy questions since it is a free test ?

Knewton did not give the difficulty of the questions associated with each but 90th percentile is great. I am curious how it compares to other tests to see the true performance.

Best Regards,

Yes, I did take their free test. It was mostly OG questions with proper nouns changed thats all. So if you've done all OG, then I bet you'd have found similar questions. And if you haven't done OG and still scored 20/21, I'd say you have done a kudo-worthy job. Best of luck :)
