Hi guys,
I picked 21st June as my G-Day. So far I was keeping cool. Now that the day is approaching I am feeling a bit nervous. All the posts in this forum are big motivators, no doubts in that regard.
I have a few questions regarding some issues:
In the Powerprep Test 1 that I took after finishing 25% of the
OG material I got 720 (Q 49, V40). What I was amazed to see was that in Maths although I answered 37 questions, in the final score report it showed 28 questions with 5 mistakes (So 23 correct out of those 28).
In the Verbal I had attempted 41 question, but again the final score tally showed 30 questions out of which 7 mistakes.
So what happened to the rest? Were those experimental questions? Even on a Prep Test.
So you guys who have already belled the CAT, when you got 49 or 50 or 51 in Q , did you guys at all make any mistakes. I know it depends on the difficulty level too. But the scoring and the weighted scores are kind of tricky.
Next question is on Kaplan CD. I took the Diagnostic last Sunday and I got a 680. sucks.
I had problem with the screen size it was so small and the outside fonts so big, I mean I couldn't see the time left or the questions left properly, while the inside screen was so small. The reading Comprehension passages were real pain. Could you plz give any suggestion what to do. I had similar problems with the powerprep too but it was better than Kaplan.
I have a windows XP at home. When I start the Kaplan shortcut on my PC. The screen shows up that your system fonts are large change it to small. But when I go to control panel and check on screen resolution, I find it is 1280X1024; then I checked on the font size, I see the one selected is Normal. The only other options are Large and Extra Large. There is no medium or small. I also tried changing the screen resolution to 800x680 but things don't get much better. I am in a fix , with less than a month left I don't know what to do.
Any suggestions will be a big help.
Thanks,
Anirban
