My 2 cents observation with Powerprep.
I gave 2 test of powerprep.
Test 1 - Score 690, Q 49, V 34
7 Quant questions were answered incorrectly - 7, 8, 9, 11, 30, 32, 35
13 Verbal questions were answered incorrectly - 3, 9, 16, 17, 19, 20, 21, 23, 31, 33, 38, 40, 41
Test 2 - Score 690, Q 49, V 34
5 Quant questions were answered incorrectly - 5, 11, 14, 19, 36
8 Verbal questions were answered incorrectly - 1, 6, 11, 13, 19, 29, 34, 38
With less incorrect answers in test 2, I guess I should have scored higher. But then carefully observing the number of incorrect answers till question number 5, 10, 15 and 20, it seems that the score is almost finalized till ques number 20. Accuracy beyond that does not have much impact on the score.

Tarun, the scoring algorithm in PowerPrep is completely different from that of the GmatPrep. I got only one question wrong in Q but the PP gave me only 50.
Although PowerPrep is good for studying in an early phase, its questions no longer represent the current GMAT, which is then more similarly represented by the GmatPrep.

Today, I was revising my 2 GMATPrep tests and I found the following order of CR questions (though approx 80% correct):
A P E W S I W A BF S E = 11 Questions
A=2
P=1
E=2
W=2
S=2
BF=1
I=1
C S W BF BF A W S S A F(A) = 11 Questions
C=1
S=3
W=2
BF=2
A=3
Assumption = A
Paradox = P
Evaluate = E
Weaken = W
Strenthen = S
Inference = I
Bold Face = B
Conclusion = C
Fill In the Blank(Assumption based) = F(A)
So, I think more than majority of the questions is from A, W and S. If you do well in CR, then expect rest from BF, E parts.
A P E W S I W A BF S E = 11 Questions
A=2
P=1
E=2
W=2
S=2
BF=1
I=1
C S W BF BF A W S S A F(A) = 11 Questions
C=1
S=3
W=2
BF=2
A=3
Assumption = A
Paradox = P
Evaluate = E
Weaken = W
Strenthen = S
Inference = I
Bold Face = B
Conclusion = C
Fill In the Blank(Assumption based) = F(A)
