Hi. You are not crazy. We have received a massive ETS legal complaint to remove many discussions that were related to their questions, so we have been doing it over the weekend. I am not sure what their problem is with discussing questions but they really appear unhappy that people are preparing for the GRE. They even worked on Saturday extra time to file more complaints and threaten us.
P.S. We are law-abiding and comply with all legal requests and complaints but it is a bit futile since folks will post them again anyway for clarification since their explanations are either non-existent or terrible.
Therefore the explanations of the Power Prep FREE software at the moment are no longer available on the forum to the students. Neither Carcass has access or might grant it. Thank you
Why This Kind Of POP UP is Showing that (You are not Authorised to Read This Forum) ??I am Unable to Access These Question? Is there any Way Out?

The 2 PowerPrep Tests are the most valuable tests. You should cherish them! These tests can give you the most accurate estimate of your score and can save you from burning and crashing on the test day.

This topic is here to help you find expert explanations for all of the PowerPrep test questions. Whether you got them right or wrong, we highly encourage you to review explanations to learn new strategies, techniques, and shortcuts! But do not use these links until

SCORING INFORMATION AND HOW TO MAXIMIZE YOUR PREPThe way that the GRE Test works is that the difficulty of your second section on the test depends on your performance on the first section. If you do well in Quant for example, your second quant section is harder and if you don't, then it is easier. There are 3 possible scnarios depending on the number of mistakes:
- Step 1: Find your second section by looking at the number of mistakes you made in the first section
- 0-6 correct - Easy
- 7-14 correct - Medium
- 15-20 correct - Hard
- STEP 2: Identify the section that you should review (that's the one you attempted)
- STEP 3: Attempt the other 2 sections. E.g. if you got Medium on the test, then you can also attempt Easy and Hard sections later on. Make sure to time yourself!
