quantitative part percentiles

by simone88 » Sun Feb 10, 2013 4:29 am
in links like this https://www.mba.com/the-gmat/gmat-scores ... means.aspx ther is written that the maximum score is 60. Has something changed? I am interested because I think I could have possibilities to go over the 98% in the quant section.

Hello, Simone!

The score scale for the quant and verbal sections ranges from 0-60, which is what you will see on our published score scales. However to date GMAT test taker has not exceeded 51 on either of the aforementioned sections. A Quantitative score above 50 and Verbal score above 44 would put you well within the 99th percentile. Good luck!
