|
|
Hi,
As we know that the GMAT is a Computer Adaptive Test whereby it Adapts to the capabilty of the Test Taker.
So I would kindly like to know whether this holds true for Expermental Questions as well,
i.e If someone answers an experimental question correctly then is the next question presented to him a little harder?
On the other hand if he wrongly answers an experimental question then is he presented with an easier question as the next one? |

To the best of my knowledge, experimental questions are not adaptive to your performance.
Best of luck! _________________ Eric

That's right - experimentals are not part of "your" testing experience. They're just randomly testing stuff. _________________ Stacey Koprince
