Today Iam confirmed that the GMAT exam is a totally randomised score giving software. That's all. Scores dip when you prepare more? Any ideas? Why is it that so many people are left surprised with their scores? Why is there so much difference between mock scores and actual scores? Why can't I review my exam after I get my score?
Well, these are all valid questions? I also know GMAC is powerful and we are puny. There are so many people who hardly prepare but get exceptional scores. They are astonished themselves when they see their scores. But they will remain quiet. Won't speak a word about it.
The software is designed to give limited high scores in target locations. The number of high scores is predetermined too. In case an undeserving candidate reaches the interview stage, they can always be filtered out. Hard to believe but that is a fact. Had it not been a fact, GMAC would've been a lot more transparent. Think about it and please don't rest your life with this exam. It's a random system and can't be trusted. Please end your obsession with GMAT before it ends you.

Whatever happened "today" must have been serious.
However, although the GMAT is not perfect, it is made and delivered quite well (for a standardized test). If you feel that there was something wrong with a particular test administration, you can communicate that to the GMAC (try here and through email). If you've decided to go for an alternative, you can take the GRE.
Whatever you decide, I hope you'll take the decision that is right for your career.

Hi sinhap07,
From this post, it sounds as though you recently scored lower on the GMAT than you expected to. The GMAT is still the same consistent, predictable Exam that it's always been, so you CAN train to score at a higher level. If you'd like to provide a bit more information about how you studied, and your score results, then I'll be glad to offer you the advice that you need to score higher.
1) How long have you studied?
2) What materials have you used?
3) How have you scored on each of your practice CATs (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores)?
4) How have you scored on each of your Official GMATs (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores)?
GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,
