KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 17 (Bernama) -- The Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC), a global association representing leading business schools, is geared up for testing of the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) Focus Edition to begin on Nov 7.
In a statement, GMAC said the updated edition will replace the current version of the GMAT Exam on Feb 1, 2024 and become the only version of the GMAT available for candidates aspiring for their dream business education.
“Our shared priorities are to ensure that the GMAT Focus Edition assesses the most relevant and in-demand skillsets like data analytics, problem solving and critical reasoning, and to help each candidate perform at their best by putting them in control of more flexible testing and score sending options,” said GMAC Chief Executive Officer, Joy Jones.
On the other hand, Singapore Management University associate provost of postgraduate professional education and GMAC board newly elected chair, Themin Suwardy said since its launch in 1954, the GMAT has been the gold standard in graduate business education exam.
“Top business schools around the world accept it more than any other alternative because it’s the only assessment designed for today’s graduate business programme and proven to reliably evaluate business school candidates and predict their success in the classroom,” he said.
Backed by seven decades of leadership in graduate business school education and admissions, the GMAT is accepted by more than 7,700 programmes and 2,400 business schools worldwide.
The test was redesigned with a more efficient test taking experience and flexible features to better support as well as encourage more candidates on their business school journey.
Owned and administered by GMAC, the GMAT exam is the most widely used graduate business school assessment.
