What's the difference. I know PowerPrep is from the old GMAT makers (ETS) and GMATPrep is from the new ones, but do they use the same bank of questions? Thanks in advance.

GMATPrep has a few questions that overlap..but hardly any.

PowerPrep questions appear a lot in the OG editions.

Also PowerPrep seems to be a bit easier for quant.

I believe GmatPrep is a newer version on PowerPrep. So it is a better estimate of your GMAT score

I am a bit confused onto how the PP scores compare to the GMP scores.
Obviously Q is harder on GMP but on the other hand scoring is more lenient as well. For example I got 5 wrong on PP Q and got 49. On GMP Q, 5 wrong can get you a 50 or even 51 if you are lucky.
I don't know how the verbals compare but it might be a similar situation. I only got 4 wrong on PP1 V and that was a mere 44, and I rarely get over 41 on GMP V. I also felt the SC and RC was easier than GMP despite the fact that the RC passages were much longer.
