Hello experts and fellow-learners,
I don't quite understand the term "700-level" question.
In GMAT, since a score of 700 (or whatever) is derived from individual scores of verbal and quant, how can a verbal question or a math question in isolation be termed a 700-level or a 600-level etc.?
Instead, I feel the difficulty level of a verbal question or a quant question should be better represented by, say, a V40-level or V35-level.... Q51-level or Q49 level etc.
I am not trying to find flaws.... all I wish to understand is what does a 700-level verbal question translate to - V36/V38/V40...?
In practice tests, I hover between verbal scores of 35 and 38, so I wanted to understand whether I can expect to see such questions (700-level) in the actual GMAT.
Thanks in advance for your reply.

A 700 indicates ~90 percentile, hence you can treat a 700 level question as one, which only 10 % of the people are able to solve correctly.
You getting a particular level of question depends on how you have answered the previous question. At V35 - V 38 level, you would certainly see 700 level questions and if you answer them correctly, you would see more of them.
When do you plan to take the GMAT?
Have you taken any Mock CATs?

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
I wrote my first GMAT back in 2012 when I got 700 (Q49,V36), however I plan to re-take (donno if an attempt after 4 years is still considered a "retake") around mid February. Have taken 1 MGMAT CAT and scored 690 but that was before I started re-preparing. I plan to solidify the concepts more than take too many mocks. I really need to reach a score of 740-750 this time, to offset my age of 33
Q would never be a problem and I expect 50... it is the V that will make-or-break my score!
