I tried to search it online, couldn't find. Does a time spent on each question in GMAT affect the score?
If someone knows a thread or a link, where there is a detailed explanation of scoring methodology, I would appreciate it. I have some sites where they explain, thought maybe you guys know something better

Thanks

You're already facing a time constraint (i.e. finishing 37 questions in 75 mins). The amount of time you spend on each question does not count when calculating your total score. However, as mentioned at the beginning of the OG, not finishing on time means a severe score penalty.

"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."
