Can any one tell me that what should be the estimated score in case the wrong questions of both sections are in the following pattern assuming that all questions were answered

Quants: 6, 11, 16,23,24,25,32,36

Verbal: 5,7,12,18,27,31,22,25,36,41

Your scores are not based on how many questions you answer correctly; they're based on the level of difficulty of the questions you answer correctly.

To illustrate this, I'll share an experiment I performed.

When I was writing the article Taking the GMATPrep Practice Tests Multiple Times (https://www.gmatprepnow.com/articles/tak ... iple-times), I took GMATPrep Practice Test #1 four times, and each time I answered every second question correctly (I did this for the quant section only)

Given that I correctly answered exactly half of the questions each time, you'd expect my quant scores to be roughly the same for all 4 tests.

My 4 scaled scores were: 19, 23, 26 and 42

This represents a percentile range from approximately 8th percentile to the 63rd percentile.

So, don't worry about how many questions you answered correctly. It has nothing to do with your score.

Aside: If you're interested, we have a free video explaining the GMAT scoring algorithm: https://www.gmatprepnow.com/module/gener ... es?id=1251

Hi GSPANNU,

The scoring algorithm on the Official GMAT is far more complex than most people realize, so you shouldn't be wasting your time trying to figure it out. Instead, you should be focused on honing your skills and defining your 'weak areas' so that you can put in the focused study needed to 'fix' those areas.

How have you been scoring on your CATs (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores)?
