Moving to GMAT Math!

You could expect from 15 to 18 DS questions in my opinion. You never really know. MGMAT is not always precise in the distribution of questions. MGMAT always gives 12 RC questions, whereas you can see 13 or 14 RC questions in GMATPrep.

Well, according to Kaplan, you get about 15 DS, and about 22 PS.

In verbal, you can expect about 16 SCs, 14 RCs (2 long passages with 4 questions each, and 2 shorter passages with 3 questions each), and 11 CRs.

There may be some variation but there shouldn't be too much.
