VERITAS online free test: Query

by gmat_dest » Thu Jul 16, 2009 8:16 am
Hi experts,

I gave the Veritas free sample test today.

I scored 710(Q51, V41).

What I want to ask is what is the Veritas score calculation like?
Hows it compared to real GMAT?

I scored 730 in Princeton (Q48, V41)

Plus , when I did a google with sectional scores in GMAT, I see something like 750 scores.

Secondly and most IMPORTANTLY,

I can't seem to review the incorrect answers. I am using firefox browser.
Hate IE :-)

The scroll bar on the left hand small window does not seem to work. Hence I can see only the last 10 answers in verbal.

Any VERITAS representatives on this forum, can you please help me find the incorrect answers so that I can analyse them?

Thanks in Advance

When I took our free test, I scored 10 points less than I did on the actual GMAT, so I think it's pretty accurate. Plus, your score on the Princeton Review exam adds to my confidence that your "true score" is somewhere in the low 700s.

As for reviewing your answers, I am most definitely not a tech guru, so I can't be of much help. You should be able to click on the answer (the green check or the red X) and review the question.

Opened a new browser window, pasted the link...

And yeah can see the results now.

3 wrong in quant
9 in verbal(3 in each area)

Obviously verbal is my weak area and need to focus on for next 3 weeks.

BTW , Veritas seems to bring down the score for the same sectional scores. what do you think?

2ndly, quant is so boring in veritas. Had some 8 DI questions on the trot.
Real GMAt does not have so many DIs.

3rdly, I had 3 RC passages in first 15 Qs.

cheers
