For those who do not know what is GMAT.

GMAT is a computer adaptive test (CAT) intended to assess certain analytical, writing, quantitative, verbal, and reading skills in written English for use in admission to a graduate management program, such as an MBA. It requires knowledge of certain specific grammar and knowledge of certain specific algebra, geometry, and arithmetic.

簡單來說,GMAT就是一個測驗邏輯及語文能力的考試,而商學院像是 MBA會以此來拿當作入學的評測標準,考試主要分為”Verbal”及” Quantitative”,前者包含 : 文法 邏輯 閱讀,後者則是數學計算 。其中這項考試很特別的是所謂的 CAT 制度 — 電腦化適性測驗,你的每一題選項會影響你下一題的難度,藉由一連串的作答最終給出一個成績。
