[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The digital test is less consistent than the paper one. So yes, multiple retakes are more beneficial than they were only a few years ago. With the paper test, scores went up over time due to an increase in academic skills. With the digital test, that can happen too, or maybe you get a lower score than a year before. There is a lot of luck in what questions you get on test day and either the equating process doesn't seem to be accurately capturing weight/difficulty or the adaptive nature of which section 2 one gets is way off.[/quote] So true. DC scored 120 points lower than the previous try. The types of questions with answers designed to trick the student are annoying too. It just doesn't relate to the type of work most people do at their jobs. Students scoring really high are clearly well-educated, but students scoring high but not super high might just get a bad test or not be great at these types of questions.[/quote]
