Hi,
I just did my first Grockit CAT and I am confused... I got 670, which is exactly my target score, but when I opened the review, I had too many wrong questions! On my first GMATPrep Test I got 670 as well but with much fewer mistakes. Looking now at the questions, I see I have done some silly mistakes, it just wasn't my day, So I want to know wether there is something wrong with Grockit... are the questions too hard? Is their scoring system just wrong? Has anyone else the same problem as me? Do the scores on Grockit differ considerebly from the scores on other CATs???

Hi Pravela!
The GMAT is a computer adaptive test – so Grockit's score predicting CATs, like the actual GMAT, are not based on the number of questions you answer correctly, but on the difficulty of the questions that you answer correctly and incorrectly.
So, it's quite possible that you answered more questions incorrectly on Grockit but received the same score that you did on the GMATPrep test. Both tests are designed to pinpoint your skill level based on how you perform on each question, not on your total correct/incorrect on the test as a whole.
It's a good sign that the tests are providing very similar results. It means you're performing quite well. If you search for GMAT and Computer Adaptive Test Scoring, you'll find some great articles from our friends over at Magoosh that might help clear up confusion.
