Are there any numbers available for the average quant and verbal scores for native vs non-native English speakers? I'm a native English speaker and I normally perform much better on math tests than English tests, but on GMAT practice tests/questions I'm routinely scoring a higher percentile on verbal than quant. I'm guessing this is because non-native English speakers are likely to perform better in quant than in verbal, adjusting the percentiles. From the numbers I have seen it appears that about 55% of GMAT test takers are non-native English speakers as well, so it seems like this could play a significant role in percentiles. Any thoughts?

Hi JB05.
I don't know about numbers but non-native speakers would fare better in Quant. That shouldn't hold you though to score a high percentile if you are good at it.
Verbal isn't something that comes naturally to non-native speakers and that's why the struggle.
Cheers!

Well I don't think there is any stereotype over the native speakers to perform well in verbal and non-native to do well in quant, but yes the major of the students fall into such category.
However we don't have any choice but to study both, so it's better to not bifurcate one's capability under one (native speaker/non-native speaker) because GMAT surely doesn't.
