Hi,

As we know that the GMAT is a Computer Adaptive Test whereby it Adapts to the capabilty of the Test Taker.

So I would kindly like to know whether this holds true for Expermental Questions as well,

i.e If someone answers an experimental question correctly then is the next question presented to him a little harder?

On the other hand if he wrongly answers an experimental question then is he presented with an easier question as the next one?

To the best of my knowledge, experimental questions are not adaptive to your performance.

Best of luck!

That's right - experimentals are not part of "your" testing experience. They're just randomly testing stuff.
