Thanks for sharing the link Carcass. Can you please let me know how close Princeton mocks are to actual GRE? I see that they too have been listed in the list of mocks in the link, however unlike Manhattan or Kaplan, there isn't any review mentioned along with it.

Probably because the board has not collected so many reviews.

However, in my experience quant is a bit off, how they are the questions from the real GRE

Verbal is based too much on vocabulary and not the meaning of the sentence or shifts and twist and turns

Re: Mock Test Analysis [#permalink]
Hi Carcass,

Thank you for sharing the suggestion. I was able to take the Manhattan Mock Test 1 and my scores were pretty much similar to what I had scored in Princeton. However, I am a bit confused the way my Quants score was calculated in Manhattan mock.

In Quants 1 - I had 2 questions which were incorrect with the difficulty of devilish (not sure what this means) and harder
In Quants 2 - I had 5 questions incorrect (lacked focus in later section which I am working on) with difficulty of harder for all of them

I was scored 161 in Quants in the mock test. I am a little confused how this score was achieved. I went through your post about how GRE scores are evaluated. So does this mean that my actual score was supposed to be 163 but due to more incorrect answers in Quants 2, my scores were deducted?

Thanks in advance :)

My analysis applies to official test score by ETS

I do not know about the algorithm of the mock test
