Hi
I just came back from my GMAT appointment. Got Quant 47 and Verbal 23, and I totally not able to accept the disgraceful Verbal Score. Never, during the entire verbal section I felt that any of the questions were out of my ability level. In fact I found the questions very approachable and easy to solve. I am preparing for last 6 months or so and I have not got any score less than 690. Least on verbal I scored was 34.
I strongly believe that there was some problem with the GMAC algorithm and it did not correctly matched my answers. I am not a disgruntled test taker nor I don't understand the level of GMAT. But even if i get up from my sleep and do verbal I can never get a score as low as 23.
Is there any one else, who feels that his/her score was not the true representational of his/her ability?? Are there lot more like me, who truly believes that they could never get such a low score. I have already written to GMAC, I know even if they find something they will not report it.
Recently when I was doing the IR from GMAC Prep, I came across a similar issue. I marked an answer as B and when i submitted my answer, GMAT PREP told me the answer is C. However when i scrolled down below, they explain B as the right answer. I have attached the screen shot, which if you will see make more sense.
Now, been a GMAT student., I am making no casual relationship between these two issues. What I am only suggesting is that there could be a bug in GMAT and if there is bug then enough people should come forward and GMAC should take care of the issue. I know they will not accept it publicly, if there is a bug.
But It is not easy to go through such bad days in your life, when you know almost every thing that appears on screen and still u end up getting 23.
