The people who make the test say that the early questions are not worth more than questions elsewhere on the test. Even if you believe they would lie about something like this - if they did, they would long since have been sued for spreading misinformation that caused people to perform more poorly on their test. There are organizations that exist just to serve as watchdogs for this purpose. For example, check out www.fairtest.org.
No worries. I guess, in the benefit of time, we should agree to disagree.

I would appreciate if you could share a link where GMAC says that early questions are not worth more. It is not to refute your argument that I ask for the link but to satisfy my own curiosity on this matter.

I don't know where that would be online but you can find it printed in the OG books. You can also search on their web site (www.gmac.com).
