GMAT Exam and Review Course

 
 

Graduate Management Admissions Test (GMAT)

The Graduate Management Admission Test® (GMAT®) is a standardized assessment—delivered in English—that helps business schools assess the qualifications of applicants for advanced study in business and management. Schools use the test as one predictor of academic performance in an MBA program or in other graduate management programs. The GMAT® exam 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 is administered at the Pearson VUE Testing Centers.

Registration for the GMAT must be completed online at www.mba.com.
