  1. Okay, I'll wait for that and PM to remind you. After all, is sunday and I don't think they will reply today. Thak you very much
  2. Thank for your reply Espresso Shot, the GRE Guide says "within a section all questions contribute equally to the final score" then says "For each of the two measures, a raw score is computed. The raw score is the number of questions you answered correctly. The raw score is then converted to a scaled score through a process known as equating. The equating process accounts for minor variations in difficulty from test to test as well as the differences introduced by the section-level adaptation" This should be what you're talking about. Thanks for this explanation. About the other two questions, that's what I am going to do, I will contact ETS. Would it be okay to do it via the Contact Us section of the webpage? or is there a more apropriate way to ask them about this? By the way, I should have said VioletAyame, I'm new in the forum. Excuse me.
  3. Hello, I have a couple of questions about the math section on the GRE. I took this morning a practice test, in the POWERPREPII software and had 28 correct answers in the math section, and as I have read in the official guide every question is weighted the same (1 point), but the scored I got was 154 in this section. Also in the Verbal section I had 23 corrrect answers, which should score a 153, but I got a 152. Why did this happened? are these scores given by POWERPREPII right?, or I should have scored 158 and 153 (311) as I thought? Another doubt I have is about the on-screen calculator, It has the decimal point moved, some times one digit, sometimes two digits, 1/2 should equal 0.5 and it gives a 5 for example. Lastly, in a numeric entry question, I was asked to determine a average, which was 36.52, exactly what I entered; it was incorrect, and when I checked the correct answer they had 36.5, but nothing was speficied about the amount of deciaml digits in the question. I can know this without any specification from the question? Thanks in advance.
