Whats up with PR scoring?

[netigen]

on 5/10 I gave the first test on PR and scored a 770 (V46, Q51) - 4 wrong in Q and 7 wrong in V

Today I gave another test on PR and scored a 730 (V41, Q51) - 1 wrong in Q and 5 wrong in V

I am completely perplexed at this paradox with the number of Q we get wrong and the corresponding scores.

netigen,

Your score has little to do with how many you get right overall. Questions are "rated" based on level of difficulty - harder questions count more. So, theoretically at least, you're better off getting three hard questions wrong than one easy question wrong. Also, questions count more (or less) based on where you are in the test - again, theoretically, you're better off getting the last three questions wrong than getting the first question wrong.

It's weird, but it's true - don't judge based on number correct.

Hope this helps!
