If you have questions regarding the exam\u2019s format, content, or differences compared to the \u201cold\u201d GMAT, then read the following article to find out all you need to know.\r\n\r\nBuckle up, and let\u2019s have a look at 10 facts about the new GMAT Focus!\r\n\r\nStructure<\/strong>\r\n\r\nThe test\u2019s new format is made up of three units designed to assess a wide array of skills that are considered a must for business school applicants.\r\n\r\nThe three units are Quantitative Reasoning, Verbal Reasoning, and Data Insights.\r\n\r\nContent<\/strong>\r\n\r\nThe Quantitative Reasoning section contains 21 problem-solving<\/strong> questions. In this unit, your ability to solve mathematical problems using arithmetic, algebra, or a combination of the two is assessed.\r\n\r\nThe Verbal Reasoning section contains 23 reading comprehension and critical reasoning questions<\/strong>. The reading comprehension questions examine your ability to comprehend vocabulary, statements, and the relationships between significant passages and quantitative concepts. On the other hand, the critical reasoning questions assess your ability to create and appraise an argument.\r\n\r\nFinally, the Data Insights section has 20 questions that can either require math, data analysis, verbal reasoning, or all three together. It examines your ability to assess different sources and various types of data. Moreover, it tests your ability to analyze a practical mathematical problem and determine whether the data you have is sufficient to solve the problem.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″ offset=”vc_hidden-xs”]

\"\"<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row pix_particles_check=””][vc_column][vc_column_text]Section duration<\/strong>\r\n\r\nThe time you have to complete each section is separate, but the overall exam time is 2 hours and 15 minutes, during which you must answer a total of 64 questions.\r\n\r\nYou therefore have 45 minutes to complete each section.\r\n\r\nSection order<\/strong>\r\n\r\nJust like in the test\u2019s older version, in the GMAT Focus you can choose the order in which you would like to take the exam\u2019s sections. Furthermore, you are allowed to take one 10-minute break during the entire exam, and you can choose when you would like to take said break between the three sections.\r\n\r\nQuestion revision<\/strong>\r\n\r\nOne of the GMAT Focus\u2019s new features is the possibility to review questions and revise your answers for up to three questions per section. One important tip is that you need to bookmark the questions you want to review (to save time) and to make sure you have enough time left at the end of each section to go back and revise.\r\n\r\nGrading system<\/strong>\r\n\r\nIn contrast to the old GMAT, where the grading scale went from 200-800, the GMAT Focus is graded on a scale from 205-805. The difference in the grading system is evident in the fact that universities now ask applicants for different scores depending on the test version. Using percentile rankings allows us to more easily compare the two grading scales.

\"\"<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]Submitting your results to universities<\/strong>\r\n\r\nFollowing the completion of the exam, and after you\u2019ve received your final score, you can submit the results to the universities of your choice (for up to 5 universities, submission is free of charge).\r\n\r\nExam reevaluation<\/strong>\r\n\r\nUnfortunately, you cannot ask for a reevaluation of your results. Instead, you have to retake the exam.\r\n\r\nExam resit<\/strong>\r\n\r\nYou can resit the GMAT for up to 5 times in a period of 12 consecutive months and 8 times in total.\r\n\r\nExam preparation time frame<\/strong>\r\n\r\nPreparation for the GMAT lasts between 8 to 10 weeks and is divided into two main parts.\r\nPreparation for the GMAT lasts between 8 to 10 weeks and is divided into two main parts. The first part of the preparation lasts 8 weeks. During this time, candidates attend two three-hour lessons per week. Through the lessons and multiple practice exercises, candidates develop their critical thinking, as well as their problem-solving and reading comprehension skills.\r\nThe second part of the preparation involves a series of simulation tests that helps candidates familiarize themselves with the test format. Thanks to systematic practice and the close monitoring of their performance by their instructors, candidates can identify areas that need improvement.\r\nIn order for candidates to achieve a high test score, it is crucial that they maintain a good balance between the various test sections throughout the entire preparation period.\r\nFollowing the two preparation phases and the necessary practical application of the skills acquired via simulation tests, candidates are now ready to take the GMAT.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner css=”.vc_custom_1682077203125{padding-top: 50px !important;padding-bottom: 50px !important;}”][vc_column_inner]
