What is the GMAT test and do I need to take it?
The Graduate Management Admissions Test (GMAT) is a standardized, computer-adaptive test used by 1,500 graduate management programs around the world to assess the qualifications of applicants. The GMAT measures basic verbal, quantitative/mathematical, and analytical writing skills that are developed over a long period of time. It is specifically designed to help graduate schools assess the qualifications of applicants for advanced study in business and management. The GMAT does not presuppose any specific knowledge of business or other specific content areas, nor does it measure achievement in any particular subject areas. The test does not measure subjective factors important to academic and career success — such as motivation, creativity or interpersonal skills. The GMAT requirement may be waived by the MBA Director if the Applicant has a 3.00 grade point average (on a 4.00 scale) in his or her undergraduate studies or has successfully completed other graduate coursework.
