A: This group includes the following types of questions:  

3-Dimensional Geometry
The geometry of lines, planes, and solids (cubes, pyramids, cones, etc.) in ordinary 3-dimensional space.

Angles In The Plane/ Lines And Segments
Geometrical settings in the plane for which the primary focus is on one or more angles between various lines or line segments.
• A point is a location, shown by a dot - it has no size i.e. no width, no length and no depth. 
• A line is defined as a line of points that extends infinitely in two directions. 
• A line is a straight set of points that extend in opposite directions without ending.
• A plane extends infinitely in two dimensions.  
• A ray is a part of a line that has one endpoint and extends in one direction without ending. 
• A line segment is a part of a line between two endpoints. 

Circle/Area
Geometrical settings in the plane for which the primary focus is on the area, circumference, or arc lengths of one or more circles.

Combo: Circle/Quadrangle/Area/Perimeter
Geometrical settings in the plane that involve a combination of circles and polygons, such as area or perimeter relationships for circles inscribed in, or circumscribed about, a polygon.

Coordinate Geometry
The use of algebraic methods to describe positions and properties of geometrical figures in the coordinate plane.

Polygon (5 Or More Sides)
Geometrical settings in the plane for which the primary focus is on a polygon of 5 or more sides, such as its perimeter, area, diagonals, interior angles, etc.

Pythagorean Theorem
In a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

Quadrilateral Area
Geometrical settings in the plane for which the primary focus is on one or more quadrilaterals. Properties such as area, perimeter, diagonal lengths, etc. could be involved. 
A: This group includes the following types of questions:  

Conversion - fractions/decimals/percentages
Conversions between fractions, decimal and percentages

Graduated Rate
Problems that can be described in terms of step functions - taxi fares and related pricing methods, profit and loss, mixture problems, distance and rate problems, working together problems, etc. 

Percent (basic)
Basic percent problems include the value of one number in relation to another  such as 5% of 8 is equal to …? or a chance from 7 to 12 represents what percent increase ...?

Ratio, proportion
Problems whose primary focus involves one or more ratios of numbers or algebraic expressions. A proportion is an equality of ratios, such as a/b = c/d, which can also be written as a : b = c : d.
A: This group includes the following types of questions:  

Absolute Value
Problems whose primary focus involves the use of, or the properties of, the absolute value function, where absolute value represents magnitude (i.e. Distance from 0).

Computation - Decimals
Problems for which one or more of the four basic operations—addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division—are applied to numbers in decimal form.

Exponents
Problems whose primary focus involves some familiarity of the meaning and properties of exponents. For example, a problem asking for the solutions to x^4 - 16 = 0 would not belong to this category, even though the exponentiated term x^4 appears, but a problem for which (x^2)(x^3) is needed to be rewritten as x^5 would belong to this category.

Factors, Multiples, Divisibles
Problems whose primary focus is on divisibility properties of positive integers, such as their factors, their multiples, prime numbers, the gcf (greatest common factor) of two or more positive integers, the least common multiple of two or more positive integers, etc.

Problems whose primary focus involves the use of order, other basic properties of a number line and the ideas of total or partial ordering, such as soccer team seedings in a tournament or an organization chart for a company.

Place Value
Problems whose primary focus involves the use of place value for decimal numerals.

Positive and Negative Numbers
Problems whose primary focus involves the preservation or non-preservation of signs when signed numbers are added, subtracted, multiplied, divided, exponentiated, etc.

Remainders
Problems whose primary focus involves the use of, or the application of remainders in the context of dividing a positive integer by a positive integer.
A: This group includes the following types of questions:  

Algebraic Manipulation
Problems whose primary focus involves rewriting one or more algebraic expressions. Examples include rewriting a sum of algebraic fractions as a single reduced fraction, factoring or expanding algebraic expressions (for purposes other than solving an equation), manipulating algebraic expressions involving radicals, etc

Applying Formula
Problems whose primary focus involves using one or more specific formulas that may or may not be given in the statement of the problem, such as expressing the circumference of a circle in terms of its area.

Linear Equation
Problems whose primary focus involves solving a first-degree equation. The coefficients may be numerical, such as solving for x when 3 - 5(x+2) = x/5, or literal, such as solving for y when ax + xy = b.

Linear Inequality
Problems whose primary focus involves solving a first-degree inequality. The coefficients may be numerical, such as solving for x when 3 - 5(x+2) < x/5, or literal, such as solving for y when ax + xy ≥ b.

Measurement Conversion
Problems whose primary focus involves the conversion between units of measure. The units could be for length, area, volume, temperature, speed, etc. And, in some cases, the units could be fictional. The numerical unit conversion factors that are needed to solve the problem will be provided.

Newly Defined Functions

Problems whose primary focus involves using a function that is explicitly defined in the statement of the problem. The function could be well known but outside the scope of assumed GMAT background knowledge, such as the greatest integer function, or the function could be a randomly made up function that is to be used in solving the problem.


Quadratic/Other Equalities/Inequalities
Problems whose primary focus involves solving an equation or inequality that is not algebraic of the first degree, such as (x-2)(x+5) > 0 (a quadratic inequality) and 2^(x-1) = 8^(3x) (an equation that is not algebraic).

Systems of Equations/Inequalities
Problems whose primary focus involves completely or partially solving one or more equations or inequalities. The equations and/or inequalities could be first degree algebraic, higher than first degree algebraic, or not algebraic.

Translation to Algebraic Expression
Problems whose primary focus involves translating from one or more verbal descriptions to one or more mathematical descriptions.
A: This group includes the following types of questions:  

Counting (Combinatorics)
Problems whose primary focus involves basic combinatorial ideas, such as permutations, combinations, counting paths in a grid, etc.

Estimation
Problems whose primary focus involves one or more numerical estimations.

Series And Sequences
Problems whose primary focus involves a numerical sequence (a finite or infinite list of numbers) or a numerical series (the sum of a numerical series), such as arithmetic sequences, geometric sequences, sequences defined by recursion, etc.

Sets
Problems whose primary focus involves the understanding of, and application of basic ideas about sets, such as their union and their intersection. Problems that appear to be best solved by the use of a venn diagram are considered sets problems.
A: The Sub-section scores are provided to show you trends in performance and are calculated using only questions of the same type. Since the number and difficulty level of questions vary, it is likely that the Mean of the Sub-section scores will not equal the Section score.
A: To maintain consistent terminology, each Sub-section score has been calculated to use the same score range as the overall Section score. Each of the Sub-section scores is calculated as though the entire Section consisted only on one question type.
A:

Every question in the Quantitative Section has two distinct components, each question is composed of one Type and one Topic.

Type

Problem Solving OR Data Sufficiency (each question requires problem be solved OR determine if there is enough data for the problem to be solved)

Topic

Arithmetic OR Algebra/Geometry (each question falls within one of three disciplines but because of volume, Algebra and Geometry questions have been grouped )

A: The ESR has been created to provide information to help you better understand your performance by showing you patterns in your performance. Because there is an inherent risk in using a small data set to identify trends, the subjects of Algebra and Geometry cannot be displayed on their own.
A: At this time the ESR does not include your AWA score, it is calculated using the data that supports in your Unofficial Score Report which does not include the AWA score.
A:

Each GMAT exam is so unique, that specific information about a particular question could be misleading for those preparing to sit for the GMAT again. Here are the factors which make it challenging to share question level information.

Number of Subjects

The GMAT Exam does not measure your knowledge of a particular subject, but rather your ability to reason critically. A larger number of subjects is available than the number of questions included in any one exam.  The subjects chosen for the GMAT exam are fundamental skills necessary for success in graduate business school and are therefore treated as interchangeable.  This means you may see four Linear Equation questions the first time you sit for the GMAT exam and none the second time.

Difficulty of Questions

Questions presented during the GMAT exam vary in level of difficulty, that level is determined very much by the performance of the test taker.  You may get two highly difficult Graduated Rates questions wrong the first time you sit for an exam because you have done very well and the difficulty is increasing.  The next time you sit for the exam you may see a relatively easy Graduate Rates question at the beginning of the exam.

Number of Data Points

The GMAT ESR is intended to provide you an understanding of your strengths and challenges, this is done by showing you trends in your performance. Because there are such a large number of subjects with a significant range in difficulty, there is no informative trend analysis.

Yes, there is a great article, written by an instructor that has proven helpful for many people: How to Analyze the Upgraded GMAT Enhanced Score Report




A:

The Percentile Ranking Number is the percentage of test takers that you did better than. 

    Imagine that there are 100 people who took an exam:
  • 2 people earned a perfect score, each of those people are in the 98% because they did better than 98 others.  
  • 3 more people earned a the next highest score, those people are in the 95% because they did better than 95 other test takers.
  • 7 people earned the third highest score, each person is in the 88% because they did as well or better than 88 test takers.
