that affected the administration of the test. Examples include,
but are not limited to, administrative errors, equipment problems,
issues related to registration or payment, and disruptions caused
by illness, natural disasters or other emergencies.
§ S (Serious violation)-GMAC canceled the score because of
a discrepancy in, or falsification of, a test taker’s identification;
improper access to or any disclosure of test content prior to,
during, or after the test administration; proxy testing; or
falsification of score reports. (The use of “serious violation” for
this purpose is not intended to minimize the significance or
seriousness of other violations of GMAT testing rules.)

Answers to Frequently Asked Questions
What does the GMAT exam measure?
The GMAT exam measures basic verbal, mathematical, analytical writing,
and integrated reasoning skills that you have developed over a long period of
time in your education and work. The Integrated Reasoning section requires
candidates to interpret and analyze information from different sources and in
a variety of formats to solve complex reasoning tasks. The Verbal section
measures your ability to understand and evaluate what you read, as well as
your ability to recognize basic conventions of standard written English. The
Quantitative section tests quantitative reasoning ability. The Analytical Writing
Assessment section measures your ability to think critically and communicate
complex ideas in writing. Your GMAT scores should not be compared with
other test scores. Although the GMAT score scales may resemble those used
for other tests, the scores are not directly related.
What doesn’t the GMAT exam measure?
It does not measure your knowledge of business, your job skills, or subjective
qualities such as motivation, creativity, and interpersonal skills. If a test
taker’s first language is not English, he or she may still perform well on the
exam; however, the GMAT exam may not accurately reflect the abilities of
someone who is not proficient in English.
How are the Analytical Writing Assessment scores used?
The Analytical Writing Assessment is used to provide an independent ranking
of your ability to think critically and to communicate clearly when writing in
English. Writing scores are computed separately from the scores for the
multiple-choice sections of the test and have no effect on the Verbal,
Quantitative, or Total scores.
What do GMAT scores predict?
GMAT scores are a valid predictor of academic performance in the first year
of a graduate management program. Since creating the GMAT exam 50
years ago, we have conducted hundreds of validity studies that demonstrate
this fact. In the past ten years, we’ve conducted almost 300 studies for
graduate management programs all over the world. The median correlation
between GMAT scores and first-year grades was 0.51 (perfect correlation is
1.0). The median correlation between undergraduate grade point average and
first-year grades was 0.28. Thus, GMAT scores are generally a better
predictor of performance in the first year of business school than
undergraduate grades, though we advise admissions committees to use both
when evaluating candidates.
How reliable are GMAT scores?
Test scores actually earned on any given occasion are only an approximation
of your true ability. However, our research indicates that you will most likely
earn a Total score within about 30 points of a score reflecting your true ability.
Your Verbal and Quantitative scores are probably within 2.9 points of your
true scores. If you take the GMAT exam more than once, you probably will
not receive exactly the same scores. “Reliability” indicates the degree to
which you would keep the same score if you were to take the test more than
once (perfect reliability is 1.00). The average reliability of the GMAT Total
score is 0.93. Average reliability is 0.87 for the Verbal score and 0.90 for the
Quantitative score. Therefore, the reliability of GMAT scores is very high.
How long are my GMAT scores valid?
Scores are usually reported up to five years from the date you took the exam.
With a special request and for an additional fee, you may report scores up to
10 years from the date you took the exam. However, scores more than five
years old will be accompanied by a statement indicating that they must be

interpreted with care; many institutions will not accept scores over five years
old. On behalf of GMAC, Pearson VUE destroys all score records more than
10 years old.
How should my scores be used?
Admissions committees typically use GMAT scores in conjunction with your
academic record(s) and other information obtained from application materials.
Unlike academic grades--which vary in meaning according to the grading
standards of each school--GMAT scores are based on the same standard for
all test takers and can be compared across all GMAT test administrations.
It is appropriate for GMAT scores to be used as an admissions tool for
graduate study in management or as a basis for selecting applicants for
financial aid based on academic potential. GMAT scores should not be used
as a requirement for awarding a job; as a requirement for employment, job
licensing or certification, or job-related rewards such as raises or
promotions; or as an achievement test.
How do I send my scores to schools?
Approximately 20 days after your test date, your Official Score Report,
including the digital photograph you provided at the test center and copies of
your essays, are made available to any graduate management program you
designated when you took the GMAT exam. Not all graduate management
programs elect to receive photographs and essays. Once scores are made
available, a school you designate can access your scores at any time. If you
have not yet designated schools to receive your scores, or if you want to
designate additional schools, visit www.mba.com or call GMAT Customer
Service. We will report results from all tests you took in the last five years.
Who has access to my scores?
Score reports, which include copies of essays and a digital photograph if a
designated graduate management program has elected to receive them, are
released only at your specific request--either when you take the test, or when
you request an Additional Score Report (ASR)--unless required by law, to
cooperate in judicial or governmental proceedings, as necessary to detect or
prevent unlawful activity, or as otherwise provided in the Privacy Policy on
www.mba.com/privacy and in the GMAT Handbook.
Should I decide where to apply based on my scores?
You may be doing yourself a disservice if you rely solely on your GMAT
scores to decide where to apply, or even whether to apply at all. Schools
treat GMAT scores as only one of several predictors of performance. Most
schools publish average and mid-80% range scores for the students they
admit. Averages can be skewed by unusually high scores. For that reason,
you can generally get a better understanding of the types of GMAT scores a
school typically admits by looking at the mid-80% range, which indicates the
scores earned by 80% of students who were admitted.
How will retaking the GMAT exam affect my chances of admission?
Admissions committees treat multiple scores in a variety of ways. They may
use only your highest scores, your most recent scores, or an average of
your scores. You should contact schools directly to learn how they use
multiple GMAT scores.
Can I now cancel my scores?
You can cancel your scores only at the test center immediately after you
take the test. Once your scores have been reported, they become part of
your permanent score record and cannot be canceled.
