Lap   Why a timer is critical to improving your score

Just got a report from someone who took the test in January and he DID NOT get 22 problem solving and 15 data sufficiency on the test. He had 17DS and 20 PS.

So, FYI, when you take the test in future, you cannot expect the old standard 22PS / 15DS!

One would also notice this in the GMATPrep software. The last time I took the test, I had this balance:

Test #1: PS: 20, DS: 17
Test #2: PS: 19, DS: 18

Cheers,
Mark
