The GMAT exam

The skills that the GMAT assesses and that you develop through GMAT preparation go beyond B-school admission, opening a world of possibilities.
What GMAT tests
The GMAT is a reliable predictor for your success at business schools. It has four sections – Analytical Writing Assessment, Integrated Reasoning, Verbal and Quantitative. But it all boils down to assessing your higher order reasoning skills no matter whether this is done though long specialised texts or high-school-level maths problems. You will be tested on how you analyse, evaluate and synthesise information to come to an effective solution.
