GMAT 2025 Score Card

The 2025 GMAT scorecard shows the overall score and section-wise performance of candidates. In the brand-new GMAT Focus Edition, the total score will range from 205 to 805. The 3 core sections of the GMAT Focus Edition comprise:

  • Quantitative Reasoning 
  • Verbal Reasoning
  • Data Insights

All three sections are graded, and the combined total of those scores will help B-schools in assessing the aptitude of candidates for management education. Also reflected on your scorecard will be the percentile rank of the score, which means that it shows how well or poorly you did compared to other persons who've taken the test.

Details Mentioned on the GMAT 2025 Score Card

Your GMAT scorecard will consist of the following key details:

  • Full name and test date
  • Total GMAT score (range of 205–805)
  • Section-wise scores (Verbal, Quantitative, Data Insights)
  • Percentile rank, both for sections and overall score
  • GMAT ID Number
  • Score Validity (all GMAT scores are valid for 5 years)

This official scorecard can also be sent to the B-schools of your choice directly from your GMAC account.

GMAT 2025 Merit List 

Unlike Indian exams (say, CAT or XAT), there is no central merit list with the GMAT. Each business school prepares its shortlist for interviews and admissions based on GMAT score and other parameters. Business schools consider not only your GMAT score, they also take into account your academic background, work experience, your essays, and letters of recommendation. So, connecting with the schools is worthwhile, since a strong enough profile can get shortlisted even with a score that is a little below the expected cut-off.

GMAT 2025 Tie Breaking Criteria 

Since GMAT scores are scaled and very few students get the same scores, tie-breaking is a rare scenario. However, some schools do consider section scores to break ties when the total score is the same, especially for Data Insights and Quant scores. Besides scores, your professional experience, academic excellence, and SOP will also be brought into consideration when making the final selection.
