I am not sure how the user you mentioned knows his percentile when it was never disclosed by GMAC.

Test takers do not receive percentiles, but the schools do and they sometimes share that information with applicants.

Is the percentile available only for recent tests? I gave this test in the past but I do not see any percentile score in my score report, which I downloaded today.

Wow..!! That's an excellent score. Congratulations for this huge and awesome score.
Can you please help by shedding some light on your preparation methods and sources used...? Details of the approach would help especially for preparing IR.
Thanks.

Hi,
I got the percentiles from the official score report sent to one of the schools I applied to. Test was taken Feb 2021.

Overall - 159 (90th percentile)
IR - 10 (56th percentile)
VR - 15 (98th percentile)
QR - 14 (94th percentile)

I also received one additional data point from the GMAC customer care representative. 150 is 64 percentile. So, I believe the overall spread has changed and I think above table probably needs to be updated.

Hi all

Thank you for this breakdown. Could you provide more insight into the scoring? For instance, does a score of 11 mean you got 7/14 correct on verbal or quant? Does the breakdown tell you how many questions you got correct in each section and not just the score?

Thank you in advance

I think 2-4 mistakes depending on difficulty level lands you on that kinda score
On quant I heard 2 mistakes gives you 11/18

Hi, I consistently scored 13-14 in QR of my practice test

Does it mean it is around 90th percentile?

Thanks!

I don’t believe so. I think you only send them to schools on the report. As mentioned by Tony. They saw a copy of the report that was sent to the school. I still have no clue why they don’t share personiles with applicants. 🤷‍♂️
