It seems quite illogical if I performed bad at SC, I will also be punished by getting an easier CR or RC.
Have GMAC said that the question format will be not accounted in the algorithm? or do you get some tangible proof for that?
Your response is greatly appreciated.
It's not really illogical. From the GMAC's point of view, it is testing the same skills
throughout the test. That means even the quantitative section tests the same skills that the verbal section tests (higher-order reasoning skills). Question formats could be something that the designers of the GMAT look at from a
very long-term perspective (for example, I would really like the GMAT to go heavy on IR instead of continuing to focus on V/Q), but none of that is likely to affect you.
However, I'm more interested in why you are so concerned about this. Write down your actual concerns, the ones about your test or score, and we (and others on the forum) could get into a discussion on the really important stuff.
