The Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) is a computer-adaptive test used to evaluate your verbal and mathematical skills. Test results are used by business school admissions officers in their student selection process.
The Verbal section of the GMAT consists of a combination of sentence correction, reading comprehension, and critical reasoning questions. This section of the test usually includes 41 questions that are not grouped by type; rather, the questions are presented in a mixed order. You will have 75 minutes for the Verbal section of the test.
The computer generates questions based on your answers to previous questions. The first question will be of medium difficulty; if you answer the first question correctly, the next one will be more difficult, and if you answer the first question incorrectly, the next one will be easier.
You cannot skip a question. The computer will not allow you to proceed until you answer the current question. You cannot return to a question once you have submitted your answer.
