Hey Sgks,

It should be exactly the same (give or take a couple points). Our goal has been to mimic the official algorithm as realistically as possible, and as far as I know, we've done a darn good job!

P.S. Scores are kept separate, usually, so you don't hear people combining them very often.

Hey Deepak,

We have the algorithm correct. The GMAT and GRE both allow for a lot of missed questions and still quite a good score. Trust it!
