Customer Query: When does your GMAT Simulator require internet access?

Wednesday, July 28th, 2010

We recently responded to a customer query regarding our #GMAT Simulator software:

“Post launching, how long will it take the GMAT exam to load and will it start immediately after launching? How will I know when to switch off my internet?”

We responded:

The load time depends entirely on your internet speed but it rarely takes more than a few minutes. After loading, you’ll need to remain connected until you click the “login” button on the first screen. Once you have logged-in you can disconnect. You’ll be prompted at the end of the GMAT to re-connect so that your session can be saved to our servers.

#GMAT Practice Test : Customer Query

Friday, February 12th, 2010

A. Borhan recently wrote us asking whether our #GMAT Practice Test Simulator software intentionally skewed scores lower. He had received lower sectional scores with our simulator relative to some other practice software he had used – despite correctly answering approximately the same percentage of questions correctly in each corresponding section.

We explained that in fact there is very little relationship between “percentage correct” and your sectional score on the GMAT. For example, if two students both get 80% correct but the first student misses questions at the end of the section while the second student misses questions at the beginning of the section – the first student will receive much higher marks.

This is the nature of a Computer Adaptive Test – signup for our GMAT newsletter to receive more detailed information regarding GMAT scoring and how it affects you.

Customer Query: How often can I review each of my answers after I complete a test?

Monday, January 4th, 2010

We recently responded to a customer query regarding how often saved sessions were available for review and we responded with the following:

You can review your completed and saved sessions with all your answers and corresponding questions & explanations as often as you would like. Your access codes will never expire. They are valid indefinitely. Any of your saved results will be tied to your redeemed access code and can therefore be reviewed indefinitely.
