hello all, I am a little worried and confused about my scores so far on the GMAT prep CD tests. For example today I got 16 wrong on the quant side and 14 wrong on the verbal side, but ended up with 42Q and 35V for a score of 630, which is exactly what im hoping for on the real one but i cant get over the fact I got soo many wrong yet still scored fairly high? Is there something I am missing? Did i just get lucky? Please let me know...

The score depends on the difficulty level at which you answered consistently well. It does not directly depend on no of questions you got right or wrong.

Wish you good luck

Thanks for your response Prasanna,

so i guess its all in my head I should just attempt to do the best I can on each and every question and not worry about how many I got wrong....if i get anything between 600-650 i will be greatly pleased...thanks again

"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."
