Why is the GMAT important?
The GMAT is a required component of your application to business school. GMAT scores are used to predict your success in the first year. A high score indicates that you possess solid analytical and verbal skills needed for the academic rigor that is required to pursue an MBA. Though the GMAT score is not the only piece of your application, it is a significant one. A GMAT score at or above the mean of other applicants will improve your chances of admission. A good score can show that you have taken your MBA application seriously. In short, your GMAT score can be equated to what you choose to wear on a job interview. Alone, a fancy suit will not get you the job and ripped jeans might not lose you the job, but which outfit gives the right impression? How is the GMAT Scored and What is a Good Score? You will receive three scores from the GMAT, subsection scores for Quantitative and Verbal and a total score that ranges from 200 to 800. You will also receive a percentile for each subsection
