Cool presentation. I took the GMAT recently and ended up with a 720 Q48 V41. Practice exams were 760 consistently but I had an hour of sleep when I took the actual test. This presentation will help reduce some test anxiety when I take it again. Thanks

So, according to what you said, the final score is determined by what difficulty you have reached at the end. correct? (That's what I understand from the graphs). So, the best possible way to get to high difficulty at the end is by getting most the question right at the beginning, then missing some questions so that the difficulty reduces in the middle and then missing the fewest possible questions at the end so that your difficulty rises as much as possible at the end and hence giving you a high score. Is this correct?

You have to consider that the algorithm takes into account your work so far. So if you miss 'some questions' and some of those questions are quite easy, the algorithm is less likely to give you harder questions. I'd encourage you to watch and really think about the 'ball throwing' analogy that takes place in the back half of the video. There's no 'gaming' the GMAT algorithm. There's only one strategy: get the question in front of you right, if doing so won't take too much time. There's no reason to miss a question on purpose (which I feel like your strategy implies when you say 'missing some questions so the difficulty reduces'). You answer questions that you can answer, you guess on questions that you can't, and the algorithm will take care of the rest.

Is it better to miss a question or give it a go in quant? Does that change between VR and quant?

I'm assuming by 'miss' you mean 'skip.' If you think there's a decent chance you'll get the question right? Give it a go. But if it starts to tangle and take a long time? Choose an answer and move on. If you don't think there's a decent chance you'll get a question right, either skip immediately or find a way to eliminate a few answers and guess. The questions you're going to miss? Miss quickly. The questions you can get right? Don't miss quickly--slow down and double check your work so you don't miss for a careless error.

Good suggestion! We will certainly do a dedicated video about it but the GMAT scoring is partially mentioned here kzitem.info/news/bejne/yKyn4K6InJmVa4o

Great video. I know this is over a year old, but I wonder how the new GMAT Focus feature of changing up to three answers will affect your distribution if you do end up changing answers at the end. Can anyone provide an insight on this?

If you changed answer and ended up getting it correctly, how will the algortihm factor that in after you've completed the rest of the adaptive set?

Yes, it is the same idea for all sections of the GMAT.
