That seems a lil bit bizarre but it's what I got from the OG　Prep Software.

I messed up the pacing so most of the questions got wrong are at the end, but I am still skepitcal that I could have reached such a high score by have this many questions wrong. Is it something that could happen or is it likely the software messed up on the grading?

Yes, it's possible. Remember that the raw number of right vs. wrong doesn't really affect your score; it's all about the level of difficulty. The GMAT Prep software tends to be very accurate, so it sounds like you're in good shape.

Still, I'd keep studying the math - just in case!

Thanks for the reply! Now I am much reliefed since my scheduled GMAT is next week.

I also did the Princeton Review online cat last week, got 11 incorrect but only scored a 39... I guess its becuz I missed on a few early questions which prob dragged the score much lower in the end
