GMAT (www.mba.com) -- The Graduate Management Admission Test® (GMAT®) is a computer-based examination that is administered year-round at test centers throughout the world. The GMAT® exam measures verbal, mathematical, and analytical writing skills developed over time. It is specifically designed to help graduate management programs assess the qualifications of applicants for advanced study in business and management. GMAT® scores are used by more than 3,700 graduate management programs from more than 1,700 graduate management schools, many of which require GMAT® scores from each applicant.
The test does not measure subjective factors important to academic and career success--such as motivation, creativity, interpersonal skills, sutdy skills, or overall success on the job. Your GMAT® scores are only one predictor of academic performance in the first year of graduate management school. To find out how your GMAT® scores will be used in the application review process, you should contact the admissions office at each school to which you are applying. The GMAT® test does not presuppose any specific knowledge of business or other specific content areas, nor does it measure achievement in any particular subject areas. Test takers should note that the GMAT® test is conducted entirely in English, all instructions are provided in English, and all responses must be entered using standard American English characters.
