Is it possible? (Scoring Questions)

by Guest Thu Jun 19, 2008 8:56 pm

I just finished this Princeton Review test and received:

Math: 40 (9 wrong)

Verbal: 34 (10 wrong)

My score was a 610. The score seems unusually low considering that my wrong answers were evenly space (1 every 4 or 5) for the and I didn't get two questions wrong in a row through out the entire test.

Is this just their way of making me register to take their exam and magically improve my scores? I'm really confused!

I don't know how their algorithm is written, so I really have no idea, unfortunately. I worked there like a decade ago and we certainly didn't do stuff like that then (artificially depress your scores); I would be surprised if they did that now.

If you're not sure, you can always try GMATPrep - that's the best indicator of your current scoring level.
