GMAT Scoring

An unofficial score report is available to the test student immediately post the test. Hoever, a final Score Report is normally available to selected schools within 3 weeks of writing the test. Remember, GMAT score percentiles can change over time as more students write the test. Scores for the 4 sections – Analytical Writing, Verbal, Integrated Reasoning, Quantitative, and Total scores are all based on past three years’ score data.
