24 easy · 19 medium · 9 hard Percentile levels 58th to 94thWhat the percentile levels mean
Each question carries a percentile level: our estimate of the test-taker percentile at which most candidates answer that question correctly under exam timing. It is a calibration from experience, not data published by GMAC, and it is there to show you where your ceiling is. A question at the 90th percentile is one that most candidates below that level get wrong. For the real percentiles of total scores, GMAC's own figures are in GMAT 99th percentile score: a 715 is the 98.6th percentile and a 665 sits at 91.2%.

What do the percentile levels mean?
They are our estimate of the test-taker percentile at which most candidates get a question right under exam timing. They are a calibration, not GMAC data, and are meant to show which questions separate the top of the range from the middle.
Are these official GMAT questions?
No. Official questions belong to GMAC and are published in the Official Guide and the mba.com practice exams, which you should also use. These are original questions written to the same format and level, each with a full worked solution.
