Amazing calculator.

I have checked with about 10 scores from actual scores of GMAT takers, GMAT Prep (Focus), Pack-1 & 2 (Focus edition). Not a single discrepancy.

Kudos to you!

I have developed a calculator that helps get your final score based on the sectional scores (Quant, Verbal, and DI)

Set your scores and it should match your result exactly (there is some fancy math going on behind the scenes to make sure that the results are always multiples of 5 and not any other number)
You can use this calculator to get a sense of how much you can bump up your score with changes in the section. Something that's interesting to note about the GMAT Focus is that all 3 sections contribute to the score equally, so if you can max one out easier than others, go for it

I do now, and hope to be able to build a quick calculator :cool:

Quick update that we have added a percentile reading to the score as well, so now you can get the overall score and percentile at the same time

And actually one more calculator update - now it is able to calculate the total GMAT score based on sectional scores and also output sectional and overall percentiles at the same time. Thank you to the https://interactivecalculator.com folks for their help!

This should hopefully the one-stop-solution for all GMAT Focus questions. The calculator also supports the Classic Score Equivalent!­

P.S. Welcome feedback and criticism and any inaccuracy you may spot! Converting Focus to Classic is tricky business with GMAC's very confusing tables. ­  :-o

👍 thank you. Felt pretty good to be able to do it with the right tools.

If you have other needs or ideas, please let me know. I’m thinking of switching attention to the GRE scores and see if there’s anything I can do there.

­ The GRE score calculator would be an excellent addition! I have a bunch of friends who are going to go for the GRE instead of the GMAT as they aren't sure between getting an MBA or an MSc. There must be more people like that in the world, and they would definitely benefit from it!

­Hey bb
I recently took GMAT FE and when I fed the individual scores here, the individual percentiles matched the official report but the overall percentile did not. 
The overall percentile was 89%, whereas, shown here is 85%. Do you have any idea why that can happen?

Thank you for this feedback. This is because the Table GMAC published is done in either non-friendly format or I don’t know how to read it I need to shift every single number by one up basically. It’s an easy fix and we can blame it on me but I blame it on the reability of the official GMAC table 😇

Thank you so much for the feedback and helping me get it to be more precise congrats on the score too!

PS. I’ll fix it in a couple hours when I get home

Wow. Thank you for keeping track of it! 🤩

The starting numbers have been changed. No calculations, scores or percentiles changed. I’ve set the starting numbers on the sliders to be the mean values instead of the previously pre-selected 80. I’ve also been able to add a little bump indicating the mean on the scale.

Setting it to 80, 80, 80 is still 605 when I do it. So I think the changes made were the initial starting scores were adjusted 😇

Let me know if anything doesn’t look right

­Hey! I have just started preparing for GMAT Focus and gave my first mock test to check where I stand. I got 465 (80Q/79V/60DI). So, I would love to know what to interpret from this and what my strategy should be going forward. Most importantly, what should be my target score if i want to give the exam in July or August?

Are difficulty levels on GMAT club measured in old GMAT units or in new GMAT focus units. For example in bracket from 605 to 655, if there is some CR question that is of 645 difficulty, should I count it in old units as 700 or 645?

­All levels shown on GMAT Club are as per GMAT FE scoring method.

P.S All GMAT FE scores end with a 5. So, if you are seeing a 645, it means FE and it is equivalent to 700 in old score (at least for now)

Hope this helps.­

­Yeah a similar situation happened to me. I took the official GMAT Focus exam earlier this year and got:
Quant - 82
Verbal - 83
Data Insights - 80

Total Score: 645

I think the GMAT Club's score calculator is right like 98% of the time but occasionally it will be slightly off.

One of my colleagues got a 615 with Q83 V83 DI75 (Probably in the first week of August). A friend gave GMAT today and got a 595. His sectional scores are Q84, V82 DI75. Considering equal total sub-sectional scores and yet a lower final score, I asked him to check with the score calculator. The calculator too suggests a 615 with Q84, V82 and a DI75.

It seems that the concordance table or at least the algorithm of percentile calculation has changed in the past 15 days. (Which seems to be the only feasible explanation). Otherwise, either the sub-sectional scores or the final score that flashed on the screen had some error (which, to me, is highly unlikely!).

But now I am curious. bb , any suggestions?
[Meanwhile, my friend and I, both are eagerly waiting for the official score report]

Thank you. I appreciate any reports of inconsistency. That is very important to have. As of today, I only had one report of a score that was 10 points off for this calculator. The reason being most likely is some of the rounding that happens because each individual sectional point contributes 6.67 points of the final score and it’s increments of 10.

This would be very helpful if you have a screenshot to get certainty of this kind of a score. Can you get the screenshot?

PS. I think it’s a bit too early too talk about algorithm changes. It may happen but I can tell you that with the other Gmail test, over the 30 years, the algorithm for score calculation never changed. Percentiles changed but not the algorithm.

The previous version of the test had a lot more inconsistencies in the scores between sectional and final score because the calculation for sectional scores and the overall was done using separate algorithms that were not connected to each other. I have not seen that pattern with the focus edition.

His was a test-centre based test so there's no screenshot of the unofficial test score. Meanwhile, the official one will probably come in 4-5 days (considering it is a weekend!).

A 10-point variation is understandable, but what baffled me was a deviation of 20 points!

My first point of contention (before posting this inconsistency on GMATClub) was that he hasn't seen his scores properly. But the sub-sectional scores he saw (Q84 - V82 - DI75) and the corresponding percentiles matches exactly with the sub-sectional percentiles of the calculator ! (85th, 79th, 51st). Seeing a perfect set of wrong scores is again, as impossible as GMAT getting the scores wrong (LOL).

Anyway, we both await his official score. Will keep you updated on it bb
