About the exam

The GMAT, line by line

The GMAT Focus Edition is the current Graduate Management Admission Test, owned and administered by GMAC and accepted by business schools worldwide for MBA and specialized-masters admissions. Introduced in early 2024 (the classic GMAT is retired), it is a shorter, three-section, section-adaptive exam of 64 questions in about 2 hours 15 minutes. Its headline change is the Data Insights section - a dedicated test of data literacy that folds in Data Sufficiency and adds Multi-Source Reasoning, Table Analysis, Graphics Interpretation and Two-Part Analysis. Quantitative Reasoning is now Problem Solving only (no geometry), and Verbal Reasoning drops Sentence Correction.

What the exam demands

Three equally weighted 45-minute sections in a test-taker-chosen order. Quantitative Reasoning: 21 Problem Solving questions across arithmetic, number properties, algebra and word problems (no geometry, no Data Sufficiency). Verbal Reasoning: 23 questions of Reading Comprehension and Critical Reasoning (no Sentence Correction). Data Insights: 20 questions spanning Data Sufficiency, Multi-Source Reasoning, Table Analysis, Graphics Interpretation and Two-Part Analysis, with an on-screen calculator. Each section is question-level adaptive; you may bookmark questions and review/edit up to three answers per section.

Who it is for

  • MBA applicants targeting programmes that prefer or require the GMAT Focus Edition.
  • Specialized-masters applicants (management, finance, analytics, supply chain) whose schools accept the GMAT.
  • Candidates choosing between the GMAT and GRE who want a Focus-native, data-literacy-heavy preparation.
  • Working professionals returning to graduate business study who need an efficient, adaptive practice tool.
  • Strong-quant candidates who want to convert data-reasoning skill into a high Data Insights score - the newest and least-saturated section.

How people prepare for it

  • Take a full timed diagnostic to set a baseline in all three sections and find your weakest of Quant / Verbal / Data Insights.
  • Prioritise Data Insights - it is the newest section, the least covered by legacy prep, and often the fastest place to gain points.
  • Drill Problem Solving by content family (arithmetic, number properties, algebra, word problems); the Focus Quant is calculator-free, so build mental-math speed.
  • Practise Critical Reasoning by question type - separate assumption, strengthen/weaken, inference and evaluate/paradox until the logic is automatic.
  • Read dense business and science passages daily and pre-map structure before answering Reading Comprehension questions.

What it opens up

  • Five-year score validity, usable across multiple application cycles.
  • Free score reports to a set of programmes selected around test day, with additional reports available for a fee.
  • A data-literacy skill set (from the Data Insights section) that transfers directly to business-school analytics coursework.
Fidelity

How this mirrors the real format

  • The paper structure is the real format: 3 sections in exam order, 64 questions in total.
  • Timing is server-controlled for the full 2 hr 15 min -- closing the tab does not pause the clock, exactly like our paid mock series.
  • Marking follows the published paper: the per-section marks shown in the paper map are the marks the scorer applies.
  • Sections run strictly in order and a completed section cannot be reopened.
  • Break windows fall where the paper schedules them, and each one is shown in the paper map.
  • An on-screen calculator is provided in the sections where the exam allows one.

"Real format" means the paper shape, timing, marking and navigation above - not the official exam software, its visual identity, or any affiliation with the exam body.

The paper schedules 1 break; each break window and cap is enforced by the server and shown in the paper map.

About the real GMAT

How is the GMAT Focus Edition different from the classic GMAT?
It is shorter (three 45-minute sections, 64 questions), has no Analytical Writing, drops Sentence Correction from Verbal and Data Sufficiency and geometry from Quant, and adds the Data Insights section. The total score scale is 205-805. The classic GMAT has been retired.
Is Data Sufficiency still on the test?
Yes, but it has moved into the Data Insights section - it is no longer part of Quantitative Reasoning. Quant is now Problem Solving only.
Can I use a calculator?
An on-screen calculator is provided in the Data Insights section only. The Quantitative section is calculator-free.
Is there an essay?
No. The Focus Edition removed the Analytical Writing Assessment. All three sections are equally weighted in the total score.
Can I change my answers?
The test is section-adaptive, but you may bookmark questions and use the Review & Edit tool to change up to three answers per section before time runs out.
Should I take the GMAT Focus or the GRE?
Most business schools accept both. The GMAT Focus is business-admissions native and its Data Insights section rewards data literacy; the GRE is broader and often chosen by applicants also considering non-business programmes. Pick based on your target schools and your relative strengths.
Preparing seriously for GMAT?
The full course adds explanations, adaptive practice, AI tutoring and the complete mock series.
