    How to interpret your GMAT score report?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

    Your GMAT score report can help you understand your strengths and weaknesses as a test-taker. It can also help you compare your performance to other test-takers. Your total score is the most important factor that business schools consider when evaluating your application. However, your scores on each of the test’s sections are also important.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Business schools want to see that you have strong verbal, quantitative, and analytical skills.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Your percentile rank tells you how you performed compared to other test-takers. A percentile rank of 80 means that you scored better than 80% of the test-takers who took the GMAT in the same testing year. Your score range tells you the possible range of scores you could have received on the test. For example, if your score range is 600-690, you could have scored anywhere from 600 to 690 on the test.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Your official GMAT ID number is a unique number assigned to you when you take the GMAT. You will need this number to send your score report to business schools.<\/span><\/p>\n
