Diving into the MBA application process, one of the biggest questions applicants have is which one should you take: GMAT or GRE? Here are a few things to consider with GMAT’s new GMAT Focus Edition and GRE’s new exam format.
Getting to Know GMAT and GRE
While both GMAT and GRE test your verbal and quantitative skills, GRE is usually the required exam for most grad schools, while GMAT is a staple for business schools. It is important to note that they are both adaptive exams that adjust the question based on whether you answer a question right. If you’re doing well, the questions will get more difficult as you go.
Here’s a breakdown between the two exams:
GMAT | GRE | |
Time | 2 hours 25 mins | 1 hour 58 minutes |
Questions | 3 sections; 64 questions | 5 sections; 55 questions |
Sections | QuantitativeVerbalData Insights | Quantitative Reasoning (2 sections)Verbal Reasoning (2 sections)Analytical Writing (does not affect overall score) |
What is the difference between GMAT and GRE?
The concepts tested in GMAT and GRE are generally the same with slight differences. However, GMAT problems tend to be more complicated and require more steps to solve.
That being said, there are other factors to consider:
1. GRE includes an additional Text Equivalence section that tests highly sophisticated vocabularies. This poses a problem for non-native speakers, since you can’t really learn vocabulary. Expanding your vocabulary will take years.
2. GMAT Focus Edition drops geometry and coordinate geometry. These two concepts are still tested in GRE.
3. GRE’s time limit is more restrictive. You’ve got about 1.5 minutes per question in GRE, while GMAT gives you a bit more breathing room at around 2 minutes per question.
There are pros and cons to consider
There are pros and cons for both GMAT and GRE. GMAT’s reading passages are generally longer and meatier, but GRE’s vocabulary might trip you up. GMAT’s problems are generally more difficult, but GRE’s time constraint is really limiting.
A point people have used to argue for GRE is that it lets you use a calculator for all the sections, while GMAT only allows for a calculator for the Data Insights section. However, most quantitative problems in GMAT and GRE don’t really require precise calculation. Using a calculator might cost you precious time when estimates are sufficient and quicker.
Picking Your Path
In the end, the easier exam is the one that suits your strengths and weaknesses better. When it comes to GMAT or GRE, each exam comes with its unique set of challenges. Consult with Toga MBA Consulting which exam is right for you and to start your preparation.
