- GMAT Score:730
Just got back, Disappointed with the score, Life's irony at its very best, The strength became the weakness, the weakness became the strength, all this time i was focusing on getting a verbal score, as luck would have it, thats exactly what happened. But my Quant score went down.
Q - 45 - 74 Percentile
V- 38 - 83 Percentile
Overall - 670 (overall 85 percentile)
I had a very rough experience, would appreciate any advise you can give me, firstly, I've always scored 47 or above on GMATprep's. As i started my test there were two problems, the test center did not have ear plugs or headphones, apparently they were running short of it.
Secondly. during the test, my screen started going crazy with wavy lines all over it. It made it very difficult to concentrate OR even read the question, sometimes it was difficult to see if there is a minus sign or just the fraction arrow. I ended my math section and complained to the administrator. Perhaps i should have complained in the middle of the section, but i was chasing the time as usual on the math section, After i complained my workstation was changed barely second before starting the verbal section. Math was difficult, perhaps i would have only ended with my usual 47, but that would have pushed my score into the 700's.
What do you suggest i do? Report it to GMAC and ask for a retake? I am not a score chaser, but given the fact that i scored 38 in verbal i expected the magical 700 figure. I hate irony in all forms.
Would appreciate if someone can guide me on next course of action.
