Profile of GMAT ® Testing: Citizenship Five-Year Summary, TY2012–TY2016 November 2016 Globally, nearly 1.3 million Graduate Management Admission Test ® (GMAT ® ) exams have been taken over the past five years by individuals interested in pursuing graduate management education. The GMAT exam is an important part of the admissions process for more than 6,100 graduate management programs worldwide. A total of 261,248 GMAT exams were taken by prospective business school students around the world in testing year 2016 (TY2016), which ran from July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016. These examinees sent a total of 561,866 score reports to graduate-level management programs across the globe. This report summarizes five-year global GMAT testing trends for: GMAT exams taken by citizenship; GMAT exams taken by gender; Mean age of GMAT examinees; Mean GMAT Total Score; and GMAT score-sending breakdowns by program type (MBA, non-MBA master’s, and doctoral/other), TY2016.

Use the data to build candidate profiles for specific country and regional groups.

Profile of GMAT® Testing: Citizenship

Five-Year Summary, TY2012–TY2016 November 2016 Globally, nearly 1.3 million Graduate Management Admission Test® (GMAT®) exams have been taken over the past five years by individuals interested in pursuing graduate management education. The GMAT exam is an important part of the admissions process for more than 6,100 graduate management programs worldwide. A total of 261,248 GMAT exams were taken by prospective business school students around the world in testing year 2016 (TY2016), which ran from July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016. These examinees sent a total of 561,866 score reports to graduate-level management programs across the globe.

This report summarizes five-year global GMAT testing trends for:

• GMAT exams taken by citizenship;

• GMAT exams taken by gender;

• Mean age of GMAT examinees;

• Mean GMAT Total Score; and

• GMAT score-sending breakdowns by program type (MBA, non-MBA master’s, and doctoral/other), TY2016.

Mean GMAT Total Scores and mean age of examinees are provided for citizenship groups with five or more exams taken and 10 or more score reports sent.

What Can I Do With the Data? Use the data to build candidate profiles for specific country and regional groups. For example, using the tables you can determine the following about South Korean citizens who sat for the GMAT exam in TY2016:

• South Korean citizens sat for 4,104 GMAT exams.

• The mean age of South Korean test takers was 30.4 and the mean GMAT Total Score was 584.

• South Korean men (67.8% of GMAT score reports) were more likely than South Korean women (45.3%) to send scores to MBA programs.

• Of the 5,198 GMAT score reports sent by South Korean citizens, 23.6 percent were directed to non-MBA business master’s programs.

• South Korean citizens represent 4.6 percent of GMAT testing by citizens of East and Southeast Asian countries and 1.6 percent of global testing.

Make this report your starting point to target your search of potential students and enhance recruitment efforts. For example, you can purchase names of prospective students using the Graduate Management Admission Search Service® (GMASS®) database or develop profiles of candidates based on data in the mba.com Prospective Students Survey Interactive Report.

About GMAT Examinees

Data in the tables reflect the total number of GMAT exams that generated valid Total Scores during a given testing year. Test takers who took the exam more than once during the year are included in the aggregate data. For example, an individual who took the GMAT exam twice in TY2016 would represent a total of two exams taken during that year.

GMAT Volume and Score Preview

In late June 2014, GMAC instituted a revised policy offering test takers the ability to preview their GMAT exam scores before deciding whether to accept or cancel the exam results. Although no score reports are distributed to schools for those who cancel their exam results, candidates do have the option to reinstate their scores and submit them to schools of their choosing at a later date.

The ability to cancel exam results is not new; however, candidates in the past were unable to see their scores before making the decision to cancel a score. Following the policy change, the number of test takers choosing to cancel their score increased from approximately 1 percent a year to 27 percent in testing year (TY) 2016. Ultimately, the majority of test takers who cancel their exam results go on to retake the GMAT exam and generate a new set of reportable scores.

This new candidate feature has led to different behaviors among candidates in the pipeline based on their GMAT exam performance. Table 1 shows that candidates with a GMAT Total Score lower than 650 tend to cancel their scores at a much higher rate than candidates who score 650 or greater (33% versus 11% in TY2016, respectively).

This behavior, along with other factors such as changing demographics in the testing pool, has led to an increase in GMAT exam volume for candidates scoring 650 or greater—an 18 percent increase in TY2016 compared with TY2014. In addition, GMAT score sending among this group of candidates is up by nearly 13,000 score reports in TY2016 when compared with TY2014.

On the other hand, GMAT test takers scoring lower than 650 have reduced their GMAT score sending from 470,690 score reports in TY2014 to 331,726 in TY2016, a drop of nearly 140,000 score reports.

These dynamics have led to a more refined candidate pool, with higher-scoring candidates representing more of the global GMAT exam pipeline and directing a greater number of GMAT score reports to business programs around the world.

Care should be taken, however, when comparing aggregate score-sending figures in TY2016 with previous years, as fewer score reports overall are now being sent as candidates have changed their score cancel behavior in line with the new policy.

GMAC reports annual GMAT exam trends to monitor global interest and student mobility in high-quality graduate management education worldwide. Because candidates who cancel their scores continue to represent recruitment opportunities for business programs around the world, GMAC will continue to include canceled exam volume in its candidate reports. This reporting change allows comparisons to be made more accurately across time for the number of exams taken by any given student group.

Note: Dashes that appear in the table are used to indicate “not applicable”, such as when there are no examinees in a given subgroup, and thus, no scores exist. For examinee privacy, dashes are also used in place of mean age and mean Total Scores when there are fewer than five exams taken or fewer than 10 score reports sent by any given candidate group.

About the GMAT Exam

The GMAT exam consists of four sections: Verbal, Quantitative, Analytical Writing, and Integrated Reasoning. GMAT Total Scores, as presented in this report, are calculated based on performance on the Verbal and Quantitative sections of the exam. Total Scores are reported in increments of 10, on a scale ranging from 200 to 800. Results are valid for a five-year period from test sitting. Please note that GMAT exam volume was artificially elevated in TY2012 as many examinees opted to sit for the exam before the addition of Integrated Reasoning (IR) in June 2012.

Notes About the Data

Gender Classifications

Beginning in testing year 2016, individuals who registered to take the GMAT exam had the option of checking a gender category called “Other” when entering their background information and setting up an account on mba.com. In TY2016, a total of 13 GMAT exams were taken by individuals who checked the “Other” gender option when registering. These exams are reflected in the total exam count in the region and country tables but are not broken out in separate gender categories within the tables.

GMAT Program Code Classifications

Program data in this report are based on a business school’s current GMAT code classifications for its respective programs. In any given GMAT testing year, school representatives can modify their program classifications if they differ from original classifications established at the time of GMAT program code assignment. Consequently, historic GMAT score-sending data may change based on such program classification changes.

Review of Historical GMAT Testing Data

In August 2015, GMAC conducted a review of historical GMAT testing data using new database technology. Minor anomalies were discovered and subsequently corrected for GMAT testing data between TY2007 and TY2008. Updated testing volumes for this period have dropped by approximately 1,000 exams. For details, please contact David Svancer at [email protected] or the GMAC Research Services Department at [email protected].
