GMAT
The Graduate Management Admission Test

Introduction :

The Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) is a standardized test which has been widely used as part of the assessment process for admission to MBA programs in Business Schools for many years. Initially used in admissions by 54 schools, the GMAT® is now used by more than 1,500 schools and 1,800 programs.

The GMAT® measures basic verbal, mathematical, and analytical writing skills that you have developed over a long period of time in your education and work.

The GMAT® exam was created to measure the academic abilities needed to succeed in graduate management education. Over the 50 years of its use, the GMAT® has been repeatedly studied, tested, and modified to ensure that it continues to help predict performance in the first year or midway through a graduate management program.

Format and Timing

The GMAT® consists of three main parts, the Analytical Writing Assessment, the Quantitative section, and the Verbal section. 

Analytical Writing Assessment
You begin the GMAT® with the Analytical Writing Assessment (AWA). The AWA consists of two separate writing tasks—Analysis of an Issue and Analysis of an Argument. You are allowed 30 minutes to complete each one. 

Quantitative Section
Following an optional five-minute break, you begin the Quantitative Section of the GMAT®. This section contains 37 multiple-choice questions of two question types—Data Sufficiency and Problem Solving. You will be allowed a maximum of 75 minutes to complete the entire section.

Verbal Section
After a second optional five-minute break, you begin the Verbal Section of the GMAT®. This section contains 41 multiple choice questions of three question types—Reading Comprehension, Critical Reasoning, and Sentence Correction. You are allowed a maximum of 75 minutes to complete the entire section.
