I have the OG2016 3 book set (have done the quant and verb, haven't done the big black book yet).

I know there isn't any type of score conversion in the books, but is there any way of interpreting the scores? such as x% right is about a 650, 700 or 750, etc.

someone did mention the problems in the beginning are relatively easy and shouldn't be a factor in your assessment. maybe a better indicator is what percent you answer correctly in the last 1/4th of each section?

Hey jasonfodor

Please note that no test prep company's algorithm will exactly match the real thing. The best we can do is get close.

You can always take a free GMAT PILL practice test here complete with detailed performance and timing analytics: https://www.gmatpill.com/gmat-practice-t ... ctice-test

In terms of our scoring, many of our students report scores that are +/- 30 points from their actual GMAT test and so are a relatively good indicator of their performance. That said, no practice test can perfectly replicate the actual score algorithm, but this is quite close.

If you want a score estimate, take an official GMATPrep test. Nothing else will give you a reliable assessment. It would theoretically be possible to convert OG performance into an ability estimate (the diagnostic test at the start of the book tries to do exactly that, though imprecisely, and obviously all of the paper test GMATs did that, and very precisely), but someone would need to collect a lot of test taker data to do that with any accuracy. No one has bothered to do that, because it's easier just to take a diagnostic test!
