Hi guys,
I'm practicing with Princeton Review, which it seems to have several supporters here on gmatclub, and I have the following doubt:
Doing the full text, first quant part and the verbal part, I get: 590 (Q:42; V:30). After that, I write down my questions.
Then I repeat just the quant part (taking care of reviewing that I get the same questions, which is true), answering the same as I did before. I get 380 (Q:42; V:0)
After that, I do the same with the verbal part (again, I check that I get the same questions, which is true) and I get 300 (Q:0; V:30)
One question comes to my mind: is not the sum of the quant and verbal parts the overall score?
590 <> 380+300
Any suggestions to this?
Cheers

They are not summed. Higher score is awarded to uncommon performance.
Think about it like this.
What are the odds that you will become a doctor? maybe 1%
What are the odds that you will become a lawyer? maybe 1%
What are the odds that you will become a doctor/lawyer? about 0.001%

Thank you Tarmac for your explanation but I'm afraid I still don't understand it very well 
What are the odds that you will become a doctor? maybe 1%
What are the odds that you will become a lawyer? maybe 1%
What are the odds that you will become a doctor or a lawyer? 2%
Why don't you summ them?
Cheers
