710 (93%) - Q44 (72%)/V42 (95%)

Question

Hello everyone,

I just got back from the test center. I scored a 710 with 44 on Q and 42 on V. I know that I messed up on a few of the earlier quant questions, but I got 2 probabilitys towards the end and I also got 2 advanced geometry questions towards the end, so I felt that my score was going to break past the 80th percentile, I guess it didn't.

I found the Quant to be much harder than GMATPrep, and the Verbal to be much easier. Overall, my practice scores have been around 700-710, so this is completely in line.

I'm going to let this settle in for a bit, but I am 90% sure that I will not be retaking the test.

I took the Manhattan GMAT 9-week in person prep course. I highly recommend it. Their instructors are top notch and they treat their clients like gold. I attribute my quant score almost entirely to Manhattan GMAT. I started out with verbal scores between 32-35 and MGMAT's course pretty much brought it up to a 42.

I received the official score report today. 2 interesting things to note:

I got a 5.5 on AWA (yay, but fairly meaningless).

However, my percentiles were scaled down even further. The amount of high scorers is shooting through the roof, I suppose.

44Q is now a 70th Percentile, 47Q is now 79th percentile, and in order to break 80th percentile, you need a 48Q.

710 is now also a 92nd percentile, and not a 93rd.

Wait, so your official score report differed from your unofficial score report? Is this common?

terp26 · Answer

Can you post the new percentages? At least for the upper ranges?

89nk · Answer

I think he meant that the percentiles have decreased due to the number of test takers increasing and scoring better on average. I am not sure if the percentiles are given right after the test.

So Terp, what are your plans now?

ko · Answer

I just took the test on Monday, and my unofficial report had percentiles on it. But maybe I'm misunderstanding something about the unofficial report?
