Hello everyone!

I's super happy I just crushed the GMAT today after a LONG time studying!! I got a 720 Q47 V44. Its a great score but the overall score seemed low considering the Q and V scores. After doing some googling it seems most other Q47 V44 scorers got a 730 and with even some 740s!! Could this be adjusted when I get my official score report? Or did I just get shafted?? Thanks in advance.

Apparently the raw scores are a bit more fine-grained than they appear, in the sense that not all 47's are created equal. There can be a "high" 47 or a "low" 47. The bigger takeaway: you did great on the test! Enjoy the victory and then start thinking about the other components of your application.

Sorry to hear that brother. Between every 10 points increment their is a subtle marking system before you an add of 10. Ideally this should be 740.

Yeah its a little lame but I'm still super happy about the 720. Just out of curiosity has anyone ever seen a score adjustment from the unofficial score report to the official one?

Glad to know that you are happy V44 is an amazing score.

The score will remain unchanged as far as I know.

"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."
