confused about GMAT Prep Scores

by k-deep83 » Wed Oct 01, 2008 7:09 pm
hello all, I am a little worried and confused about my scores so far on the GMAT prep CD tests. For example today I got 16 wrong on the quant side and 14 wrong on the verbal side, but ended up with 42Q and 35V for a score of 630, which is exactly what im hoping for on the real one but i cant get over the fact I got soo many wrong yet still scored fairly high? Is there something I am missing? Did i just get lucky? Please let me know...

The score depends on the difficulty level at which you answered consistently well. It does not directly depend on no of questions you got right or wrong.
Wish you good luck

Thanks for your response Prasanna,

so i guess its all in my head I should just attempt to do the best I can on each and every question and not worry about how many I got wrong....if i get anything between 600-650 i will be greatly pleased...thanks again
