Well,
I appeared for the Princeton Review 2004 edition CAT.
Surprisingly, i scored a meagre 600 (q 42 v 30)
I can't imagine i scored so less in quant considering i got just the 1 question wrong (ie. 13th question) among the first 20 questions and a total of 7 questions wrong in the Math Section. No complaints about the Verbal Section though.
Could anyone enlighten me as to whether there is a problem in the software or is my score justified.
Thanks a ton!

Hello prathns,
Please note: The GMAT does not look at how many problems you scored incorrectly, rather it looks at the difficulty of the problems.
Someone could only miss 9 problems on the GMAT and score a 500
Someone could only miss 9 problems on the GMAT and score a 750
The strike rate on the GMAT is not really a concern on its own. If you want to look at strike rate, you must consider the difficulty of the problems.

Hey, thanks mohater.
But like i mentioned that the only question that i got wrong was the 13th question amongst the first 20. So, I was wondering, if the CAT was adaptive then i might have dealt with the tougher questions early on, hence, my score should be decent. And the ones that i got wrong were pretty simple and right after question 23,just careless mistakes, so really don't think that those questions might have hampered my scores.
Kindly revert.
