Hi

This might be a stupid question but I've been reading some of the posts on the "I just beat the GMAT" forum and some of overall scores differ even when the Verbal & Quant score is the same.

Is it possible to have scores of Q49 and V39 with the overall GMAT score as either 710 or 720?

Or is it that one Verbal & Quant score implies ONLY one overall GMAT score?

depends on how a test taker performed on test.
which remains secret! only the test taker and his computer know how she answered questions.
I've also seen difference of 20 (730 & 750) but thats rare.
