The Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT), accepted as admission criterion by over 2,000 business schools across the globe, will be conducted online from April 20 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As COVID-19 evolved, and quickly changed how we have traditionally administered the GMAT exam, we transitioned focus to developing an online testing solution that empowers business schools and candidates to discover and evaluate each other during this interim period,” said GMAT head Vineet Chabra. “GMAT Online will maintain the standard of offering a valid and rigorous assessment, with critical security practices and protocols tailored for an online proctored environment,” he added. More than 7,000 programmes at approximately 2,300 graduate business schools around the world accept the GMAT as part of the selection criteria. The test is conducted at over 650 test centres in 114 countries.
