Guys,
I took the PR CAT online test 1
The scores I got from the test are
Quant 36 and Verbal 45 Score 650
But the number of incorrect are
Quant 5 Verbal 9
But I think number of incorrect don't represent the scaled score.
I have only one question incorrect in the verbal first 10 and 8 in the rest of 31
Is the PR CAT skewed?

I had a similar experience with PR CAT 1.
I got only 5 wrong in verbal yet I got 35...
Remember that it's CAT, the harder the problem, the more points you earn by answering it correctly.
From what I see, since you were able answer all questions except for 1 in the beginning correctly, you were given much harder quetions later on and so although you got 8 wrong later on, it didn't lower your score that much.
On the other hand, I presume the 5 incorrects that you made came mostly from early on, so you were given with easier questions which you were able to answer correctly, but which didn't really help in boosting your score.
Hope this explains.

In my experience the scoring on the PR tests is pretty accurate.
