Hello friends!

I know that it is impossible to say how many correct answers I should have in the real test to get a 41-43 in Verbal. The algorithm doesn't work in that way.

However, in my GMAT Prep experience I noticed that even, if I get 12-13, questions wrong I can get a 49 in the quant score as long as I have answered some difficult questions.

In this sense, I would like to know that whether the verbal section works in the same way. Is it possible to get a 42 with 11-13 wrong answers? According to my experience, it seems that we have to answer correctly more questions.

Thanks!

Hi Metallicafan,

As you already know you cannot judge GMAT algorithm and its scoring based on number of incorrect questions. However, from my experience, I can add that Scoring on Verbal section is much more sensitive as compared to that of Quant.

Loss 10 - 13 questions in Verbal will impact really harder when compared to its impact in Quant section.

Another thing, I think this is not the correct section for this query. So, can you move this to correct forum? may be GMAT strategy?
Regards,

Pranay
