Lightbulb Analyzing GRE test behavior

Dear Friends who took the GRE,

We (a few forum users and I) are trying to understand the behavior of the GRE test. Could you share your GRE score analysis provided by the http://grediagnostic.ets.org:443/basic/blogin.htm with us?

Thanks in advance!

Here you go. I had to really rack my brains to remember my GRE registration number.

@Goldust,

It seems to me that the 4-Q reading comprehension you faced in that test was the last one and you solved the 1st Q of that reading comprehension only within 3 min. If so, approx. how many lines there of that bigger reading comprehension?

And, recently, almost all test takers are stating that, SC are most difficult comparaing those of Big book (54 tests). Did you feel same as they?

Actually, I took the test over a year ago, so my data is not exactly the most recent at hand.

I remember that I got a 25-line reading comprehension in questions 5-6, a 40-line reading comprehension in questions 11-12 and a 110-line reading comprehension in questions 13-16.

Obviously, I have no idea about the recent questions being asked in SC's, so I can't help you there.

I have a question ... when you click on the Samples button on the report, what will be displayed? A general sample illustrates the concept of the category or specific sample from your test?

Thanks!

A general sample to illustrate what sort of question each category is about.

Here is the information I put together for the Quantitative portion from the GRE Diagnostic Service website login. I received a 790/800 on the Quantitative section.

Overall: 23/28

Difficultly #1: 1/1
Difficultly #2: 1/1
Difficultly #3: 3/3
Difficultly #4: 11/13
Difficultly #5: 7/10

The order of my questions: *denotes incorrect
1,5,5,5,4,4,5,5*,4,4,4*,3,5,4,5*,4,4,4,3,4,2,5,3,4 ,4*,5*,4,5

If you need it in the original form, or any other information, let me know.

Mine displays a single sample question of each difficulty level 1, 3, and 5 (so 3 total sample questions, but I have to individually select the other difficulty levels [3 and 5], with 1 being the default one displayed).
