CAN YOU EXPLAIN THIS - GMAT Score? - The Beat The GMAT Forum - Expert GMAT Help & MBA Admissions Advice

I'm lost on this one. Can you explain it?

I've been working through MGMAT program and just took test #2.

When I went to view my score, I flipped out because it went down 40 points. After reviewing the questions, I realized that the number of difficult questions (700-800 level) increased from 2 on test #1 up to 20 on test #2.

How is it possible that I did well enough to get all these difficult questions but my score still went down?

MGMAT tests purport to be accurate of your "true" score within 50 points. You could have just had a bad test - I wouldn't worry too much about it.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
