n a GMat exmThe GMAT exam is an important part of the admissions process for

more than 2,100 schools worldwide. The GMAT exam consists of

four sections: Verbal, Quantitative, Analytical Writing, and Integrated

Reasoning. GMAT Total scores, which are reported in the Profile,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.

n a d

Unique Examinees:Data in this report reflect the total number of

GMAT exams that generated valid, reportable scores during a given

testing year. Examinees who took the exam more than once during

the year are included in the aggregate data each time they generated

a valid score. For example, if an individual took the GMAT exam twice

during the 201213 testing year, he or she would represent a total oftwo exams taken during that year.

Since 200809, the annual percentage of individuals taking the GMAT

exam has ranged from 80 to 84 percent of total GMAT exams taken

globally. In the most recent testing year, 190,658 unique test takers

submitted valid scores, which translates to 80 percent of the 238,356

GMAT exams reported for the year. Although the overall rate has

remained relatively constant over the five-year period analyzed for

this report, there is often significant variation across global regions.

US citizens, for example, had a unique examinee rate of 87 percent

in 201213, compared with just 67 percent for citizens of East andSoutheast Asian countries.

The percentage of tests taken by non-US citizens has gone from 51

percent in 200809 to 62 percent in 201213.

Biographical information:During the test session, GMAT examinees

are asked to provide the biographical and demographic information

that is used in this Profileand for the Graduate Management Admission

Search Service (GMASS) database.1Examinees are not required to

provide this information, and some choose not to do so.

1 The Graduate Management Admission Search Service(GMASS) database is anannual, subscription-based service with a pool of names of potential applicants who havechosen to make their contact and other information available to schools. The databasepool frequently renews as individuals move through the decision-making process. For moreinformation, visit gmm/gm

No response data: No response data included in Table 1 of the Profile

refer to a small number of examinees who did not respond to the question about

gender. No response data are not specified in the other tables. Consequently,

for tables other than Table 1, grand sums will not necessarily equal the total in

Table 1. Note, however, that all test takers responded to the questions about

gender and citizenship for testing years 200809 through 201213.

Standard deviations: The only statistics reported in this summary are group

sizes and mean Total scores. Another statistic commonly reported for data of this

kind is the standard deviation, a measure of the spread of score distribution. For

the data reported in the Profile, nearly all of the standard deviations for GMAT

Total scores are in the 90 to 110 range. Because these standard deviations are

redundant across subgroups tabulated in this summary and across the Profiles

testing years, they are not reported here.

Dashes in tables: Dashes that appear in tables throughout this report 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 Total scores when there are fewer than five examinees from a

given subgroup or country.

*n:

Testing figures for testing year 201112 partially reflect increased interest in the exam brought on by the addition

of the Integrated Reasoning section on June 5, 2012. Historically, test volume rises just before changes are made to

a standardized exam as test takers opt for a familiar format prior to the transition. A closer look at testing volumes

for the last five years shows that the surge in testing year 201112 followed by the dip in 201213 average out to

about the same number of tests taken in each of the three years prior (Figure 1).
