GMAT - Graduate Management Aptitude Test is a computer based assessment and its score is used as a criteria for admissions into some of the top B-Schools outside India. The GMAT consists of four main sections—Analytical Writing Assessment, Integrated Reasoning, Quantitative, and Verbal.
The quantitative and verbal sections of the GMAT exam, both multiple-choice, are administered in the computer-adaptive format, adjusting to a test taker’s level.At the start of each multiple-choice section of the exam, test takers are presented with a question of medium difficulty. As they answer each question, the computer scores their answer and uses it—as well as their responses to any preceding questions—to determine which question to present next. Correct responses typically prompt questions of increased difficulty. Incorrect responses generally result in questions of lesser difficulty.
This process continues until test takers complete the section, at which point the computer will have an accurate assessment of their ability level in that subject area. The total score ranges from 200 to 800 and measures performance on the quantitative and verbal sections. One can register for the test either online at mba.com or by calling one of the test centers. The cost of the exam is US $250.
