Gave an official GMAT test today.
Verbal: 13/36 incorrect and a score of 31
Quant : 8/31 incorrect and a score of 49
does verbal penalize more for incorrect answers? I expect to get atleast 35 with 13 incorrect.
Incorrect questions were 1,12,13,15,18,23,25,26,27,28,31,32,35
Or is it because I got a series of incorrect in the middle that my score got reduced tremendously?
However, yesterday i took Kaplan test to get 15/36 incorrect and a score of 39
Incorrect questions 6,8,11,13,16,17,20,22,23,25,27,30,31,34,35
Please help me understand this. My exam is in 2 days.
It is very hard to tell. It depends on what order and which question that is wrong. The first 10 questions are far more valuable than the last 10, meaning that it is important to get them right. You are also given extra points for scoring several correct in a row I believe.
There is also evidence suggesting that SC/RC/CR are not valued equally much.
What is your ideal score?
