GRE Raw Score for 800Q?

Test Preparation
1

<p>I'm sure this has been asked before but I can't seem to find it.</p>

<p>Does anyone have a better breakdown for what raw score is needed for a 770-800 in math?</p>

<p>I just took my first ETS practice test and got in the 750-800 range according to the guidelines but missed 6 questions... Isn't this a lot?</p>

<p>I’m not sure I understand what you mean. Scores are now based off a 130-170 point scale (except for writing)</p>

<p>Scores Reported
GRE® revised General Test (tests taken on or after August 1, 2011)
Measure Scores Reported
Verbal Reasoning 130–170, in 1 point increments
Quantitative Reasoning 130–170, in 1 point increments
Analytical Writing 0–6, in half point increments</p>

<p>If no questions are answered for a specific measure (e.g., Verbal Reasoning), then you will receive a No Score (NS) for that measure.

<p>Right, but the current version of the ETS prep book still uses the old 800 scale.</p>

<p>I have that book and the new scoring system is in there…</p>

<p>I wish I could be of help…:(</p>

<p>You can miss about 6-7 questions at most to be in the 770-800 range (or ~164-170 range in the new format). Typically, you want to get at least ~35/40 (~89%) of the problems correct on the quantitative section.</p>
