Vocabulary is not tested on the GMAT!Bestmiler wrote:Does any part of the verbal section test you on vocabulary? If so, whats the best way to prepare? thanks.
The GMAT Verbal section has three kinds of questions: sentence correction (grammar), critical reasoning, and reading comprehension.

Hi zhangjun111:
There isn't a specific number of vocabulary words you need to have for the GMAT--it's more about having a decent comprehension of English as well as a familiarity of GMAT English grammar.

As most have mentioned vocabulary isn't directly tested however, obviously increasing your vocabulary through reading articles and books would be pivotal towards success in verbal.
