I have just attempted a paid Verbal CAT from the GMATClub tests and I have gotten a scaled score of 27.
A breakdown of the scores shows:
27 correct
14 wrong - 3 600, 11 700.
There were never more than 2 questions wrong in a row.
It seems that the GMATClub Tests are delivering the score based on how many questions I am getting correct. In the previous test, I got 25 correct and had a scaled score of 25 as well.
For the purpose of comparison, I have been regularly hitting the mid 30s for the Verbal scaled score in the MGMAT CATs.
Appreciate if some light could be shed on this. Can I trust the scoring diagnostics of the GMATClub Verbal CATs?

Even I think they are quite harsh in terms of scoring. Though i was always scoring above 35 in MGMT tests, I just scored 31 scaled score (29 corrects out of 41).

Hi bootherald,
As I understand it, the GMAT Club Tests are not adaptive, nor are they perfect "matches" for what you'll deal with on Test Day. They're reasonable practice resources though, so you should learn from them and use the results to help you to continue to practice and hone your skills. There's no substitute for a FULL-LENGTH CAT taken under test-like conditions. The results from those CATs are the truest indicator of what you could score on the Official GMAT. So how did you perform on your last CAT?
