Do you really understand how the GMAT is scored? Most test takers don’t—and that misunderstanding can quietly lower your score.
In this video, Erika Tyler-John, a 735 GMAT scorer and expert instructor with 10+ years of teaching experience and 4M+ YouTube views, explains exactly how GMAT scoring works in 2026. You’ll learn how the adaptive algorithm selects questions, how Quant, Verbal, and Data Insights scores combine to form the total score, and why the difficulty of the questions you answer correctly matters more than simply how many you get right.
Erika also breaks down why missing easier questions can hurt your score, how uneven performance affects your difficulty level, and why leaving questions unanswered carries a major penalty. Understanding how the GMAT algorithm interprets your performance can help you pace smarter, guess strategically, and protect your score potential on test day.
