How to do well in GMAT 2014

After getting good response on Wonderlic Practice Test Sample Questions article from my readers I want to write this article for GMAT preparation

What is GMAT?

GMAT stands for Graduate Management Admission Test. GMAT is the most effective predictor of student success of in leading business schools and management education programs.

How the test works?

The GMAT test consists of four main sections

1. Analytical Writing Assessment

2. Integrated Reasoning

3. Quantitative

4. Verbal

You have three and a half hours in which to take the exam, but plan for a total time of approximately four hours to include optional breaks.



The GMAT adjusts to your individual ability level, which both shortens the time it takes to complete the exam and establishes a higher level of accuracy than a fixed test. At the start of each multiple-choice section of the exam, you are presented with a question of medium difficulty. As you answer each question, the computer scores your answer and uses it—as well as your 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.

 

What are changes to GMAT?

What You Need to Know About the GMAT Exam, Now with Integrated Reasoning

1. Integrated Reasoning is a 30-minute section of 12 questions with a separate score.

2 Features four new question types that let you showcase your data-handling skills.

3 Integrated Reasoning replaces the AWA Analysis of an Issue essay.

4 Only one essay question. Quantitative and Verbal sections remain the same & so does the total score schools use.

5 The exam remains 3 hours, 30 minutes in length.
