Re: GMAT testing
The Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT is a computer adaptive test (CAT) for use in admission to a graduate management program, such as an MBA. Format and timing The GMAT exam consists of four sections: An analytical writing assessment, Integrated reasoning, The quantitative section, The verbal section Total testing time is three and a half hours, but test takers should plan for a total time of approximately four hours, with breaks. Test takers have 30 minutes for the analytical writing assessment and another 30 minutes to work through 12 questions, which often have multiple parts, on the integrated reasoning section and are given 75 minutes to work through 37 questions in the quantitative section and another 75 minutes to get through 41 questions in the verbal section. Section Duration in minutes Number of questions Analytical writing assessment 30 N/A Integrated reasoning 30 12 Quantitative 75 37 Verbal 75 41 The quantitative and verbal sections of the GMAT exam are both multiple-choice and are administered in the computer-adaptive format, adjusting to a test taker’s level of ability. At the start of the quantitative and verbal sections, test takers are presented with a question of average difficulty. As questions are answered correctly, the computer presents the test taker with increasingly difficult questions and as questions are answered incorrectly the computer presents the test taker with questions of decreasing difficulty. This process continues until test takers complete each section, at which point the computer will have an accurate assessment of their ability level. |
