This post was updated in 2024 for the new GMAT.<\/strong><\/p>\n Have you just taken the GRE and do you wonder what you would get on the GMAT? Did you apply\u00a0to a b-school with a GRE score and do you want to see how you stack up against the GMAT competition? In both cases, you will definitely want to know the GRE to GMAT score conversion. Check the chart below when weighing GRE scores vs. GMAT scores<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Some might quip that comparing GRE and GMAT scores is like comparing apples and oranges. Is a perfect GMAT score equivalent to a perfect GRE score? Isn\u2019t the math section on the GMAT more difficult than the one on the GRE? Though such questions do show that the comparison is not perfect\u2014perhaps an oranges to tangerines one\u2014this is still a “close-enough” approximation. For those who just took the GRE and are considering taking the GMAT, or vice versa, figuring out exactly how you\u2019ll do on one test can be very difficult. To confound our attempts at conversion even more is the fact that not all of us have the same skill set. For instance, you may be strong at vocabulary, but not so strong at grammar. This imbalance will work against you on the GMAT. Likewise, you might have scored 90% on the GRE quant, but since the quant competition for the GMAT is much stiffer you will in likelihood not score 90% on the GMAT quant section.<\/p>\n With the launch in 2023 of the new shorter GMAT test the already tricky task of comparing GRE and GMAT scores became harder. In fact, GMAC (the GMAT test makers) argue<\/a> the tests are so different that it’s impossible to compare them. <\/p>\n Business schools know very well about the asymmetries cited above. Moreover, we don’t know how business schools compare GRE to GMAT scores internally. So why publish conversion charts at all? We believe that when you are applying to MBA programs it’s helpful to have as much information as possible \u2013 and that learning to critically read data is an important business skill. You should read these conversion charts in tandem with our average test scores chart. And you should always<\/strong> put your test scores in conversation with the rest of your application materials. Choosing whether to take the GMAT or GRE <\/a> (or both) can be difficult: reading these charts together and taking GRE<\/a> and GMAT diagnostic tests<\/a> can help make your decision easier. <\/p>\n This chart was built using data from the ETS GRE to GMAT conversion tool. It converts GRE scores to the classic 200-800 score range GMAT long test. It was designed to help test takers predict their performance on the GMAT Verbal and Quantitative sections using their GRE Verbal and Quant scores.<\/p>\nTable of Contents<\/h2>\n
