i have already given the gmat thrice and everytime i scored 50 quant and 27 verbal.
so for this attempt i bought veritas cats and so far i have given 3 cats and scored 40,38,41 in verbal.
why is it i am able to score way better in cat than in real gmat and why is such big gap in my verbal score.
kindly shed my light on this.

Hi there,
I also did the same mistake as you of buying Veritas CAT's and wasted 49$, I think there scoring algorithm is really screwed and is easily the worst as compared to other CAT's I got a score of Q50 with 20 correct and 16 incorrect and 1 unanswered on CAT 4(really think that we can't get Q50 so easlily in actual test
).
Thanks

Hi everyone,
I wanted to jump in here to clarify one thing: Please be careful about judging your performance on a computer-adaptive test by counting the number of questions you go right or wrong. A truly adaptive test (which ours is) should quickly be able to zero in on your true ability level, and give you questions that are appropriately challenging for you at that level. If you take a CAT and find that you got most questions right, then the test wasn't giving you hard enough questions, either because the test didn't have hard enough questions for you, or because the adaptive engine (which picks which questions to give you) wasn't working correctly.
Our question bank contains thousands of questions across a range of ability levels, meaning that even the most advanced student will see a lot of questions that are very challenging for him. The result is that someone can get many questions wrong, but the test still correctly pegs them at a high ability level.
Having said that, I would like to look into each of your tests to make extra sure that everything worked as it should. Can each of you please PM me the email address you used to take our tests?
Thank you!
Scott
