* In April 2020, GMAC introduced the GMAT™ Online exam, which is an online and remote proctored version of the test-center-based GMAT™ exam. Candidate testing and score
sending information originating from both test center and online versions of the GMAT™ exam is provided in this table. These columns indicate what percentage of the total
GMAT™ exams taken corresponded to the GMAT™ Online exam, as well as the mean age and total score of candidates taking the GMAT™ Online exam.

Note: Dashes that appear in the table are used to indicate “not applicable”, such as when there are no examinees in a given subgroup, and thus, no scores exist. For examinee
privacy, dashes are also used in place of mean age and mean Total Scores when there are fewer than five exams taken or fewer than 10 score reports sent by any given
candidate group.

About the GMAT Exam


The GMAT exam consists of four sections: Verbal, Quantitative, Analytical Writing, and Integrated Reasoning. GMAT Total
Scores, as presented in this report, are calculated based on performance on the Verbal and Quantitative sections of the exam.
Total Scores are reported in increments of 10, on a scale ranging from 200 to 800. Results are valid for a five-year period
from test sitting.

Notes About the Data


GMAT Score Cancel Policy
In late June 2014, GMAC instituted a policy offering test takers the ability to preview their GMAT section scores before
deciding to accept or cancel the exam results. No score reports are distributed to schools when exam results are canceled.
Candidates may reinstate their scores at a later date if they choose, however.
Although the ability to cancel exam results is not new, candidates in the past were unable to see their section scores before
making the cancel decision. The proportion of exams canceled following the policy change increased from around one percent
a year to more than 20 percent. Ultimately, the majority of test takers who cancel their exam results go on to retake the
GMAT and generate reportable scores.
GMAC publishes annual GMAT trends to monitor global interest and mobility in high-quality graduate management
education worldwide. Because candidates who cancel their score continue to represent recruitment opportunities for business
programs around the world, GMAC will now include canceled exam volume in its candidate reports. This reporting change
allows comparisons to be made more accurately across time for the number of exams taken by any given student group. Care
should be taken when comparing score—sending figures from TY2015 onward with previous years, however, as fewer score
reports overall are now being sent as candidates’ score cancel behavior has changed.

Gender Classifications
Beginning in testing year 2016, individuals who registered to take the GMAT exam had the option of checking a gender
category called “Other” when entering their background information and setting up an account on mba.com. These exams are
reflected in both the total exam and total score-sending counts in the region and country tables but are not broken out in
separate gender categories within the tables.

GMAT Program Code Classifications


Program data in this report are based on a business school’s current GMAT code classifications for its respective programs. In
any given GMAT testing year, school representatives have the opportunity to modify their program classifications if they
differ from original classifications established at the time of GMAT program code assignment. As a result, historic GMAT
score-sending data may change based on such program classification changes.

Testing Year Data Preparation Process Updated in TY2018


In TY2018, GMAC implemented a new process for preparing annual testing year data files due to structural changes in the
data collected from GMAT exam registration. To standardize historic data into this new structure, testing year data was
regenerated from TY2008 through TY2021 in the new format.
GMAT exam data now includes exams with a status of either score-reportable or score-cancelled for all testing years starting
in TY2008 through the current reporting year. The new GMAT score-sending data is indexed by candidates' score report
request date, meaning that a testing year in the dataset represents all GMAT score reports that were requested to be sent to
global business school programs within that testing year, regardless of when candidates sat for the GMAT exam associated
with those scores. Due to the changes in data preparation, exam and score-sending volumes in GMAT reports published after
2018 will be inconsistent with historic reports.
