The NEW Gmat - how is the scoring? 21 May 2012, 00:17

Hi all,

Since the New Gmat will begin starting next month, I would like to know about the scoring system.

From what I have seen on MBA.com

Quote:
5 Things You Need to Know About the Next Gen GMAT
1
Integrated Reasoning is a 30-minute section of 12 questions with a separate score.
2
Features four new question types that let you showcase your data-handling skills.
3
Integrated Reasoning replaces the AWA Analysis of an Issue essay.
4
Only one essay question. Quantitative and Verbal sections remain the same & so does the total score schools use.
5 No change to the length of the exam.

So I think that: now there will be 3 scores to send to the school:
1. AWA score
2. Integrated reasoning score
3. Total score (200 - 800) like normal, without factoring in the Integrated reasoning score. Is this true?

Please clarify for me if you know.

yup and IMO IR score should not make that much of a difference untill schools really realize how to interpret them into real life student ability.
