Yes I know about this calculator. My prep scores were 1) 720 (Q44 V40) and 2) 700 (Q49, V36) but I think prep is not a good estimator. On test day I got much much harder verbal (with 2 70 line RC passages) than I was receiving during preps. I think MGMAT score is closer with actual score than prep scores.

Thank you for reporting this.
I rest my case then - perhaps someone else can bring some light (you may want to search through the Share GMAT Experience forum to see if you can find some correlation.

It's possible but unlikely, people tends to score lower on the actual test due to stress and being outside of the comfort of their own house.
