GMAT 6月改制加入綜合推理

2012/04/01

【聯合報╱記者蔡永彬／台北報導】

如果你要出國讀MBA（工商管理碩士），GMAT（Graduate Management Admission Test）可能是申請入學的重要依據之一。它即將在6月5日改制，新制測驗加入「綜合推理」（Integrated Reasoning）題型，寫論說文（Analysis of an Issue）則取消。

GMAT主辦單位、GMAC（Graduate Management Admission Council）亞太區市場拓展經理余菁維表示，新制GMAT總分和考試時間不變，但希望測驗學生「面對多重訊息的思維能力」。

余菁維說，綜合推理分成圖表解讀、表格分析、兩段式分析和多重來源推理4個部分、12個題目，分配題數不一定。他指出，新項目的分數是獨立計算的，詳細計分細則最近公布。

各大考試討論區上常有「前10題最重要，萬一沒答好，電腦會挑越來越簡單的題目，就不可能拿高分」、「作文是電腦改的，寫越長越高分」等說法，余菁維都否認。他指出，電腦的確會依據考生的答題狀況調整下一題的難易，但時時刻刻都在變動，每題都很重要，考生別臆測。另外作文由1個評審員和電腦共同評分，如果差距超過1分，就會由第2個評審員決定分數。

余菁維強調「未能完成考試會受到懲罰」，他建議考生把握時間，不要在1個題目上停留太久；若真的不會，就「猜吧，往下一題。」

根據GMAC統計，前年7月至去年6月有3449名台灣人參加GMAT，平均分數538分。余菁維表示，台灣考生可以上官方網站、參考第13版的官方指南取得新題型的樣題；他透露，本月中GMAC將開闢簡體中文官方網站，內容有商學院訊息、互動論壇、微博等。

Next Generation GMAT Exam to Add New Integrated Reasoning Section

Next Generation GMAT®
Changes are coming to the GMAT exam. Schools and programs want to know how you'll perform in today's information-rich climate.

On June 4, 2012, the GMAT exam will gain a new section designed to measure your ability to evaluate information from multiple sources. Incorporating advances in technology and measurement, the next generation GMAT will include a new 30-minute Integrated Reasoning section that will ask you to interpret data presented graphically, analyze different types of information, and evaluate outcomes.
These skills—according to a survey of 740 business school faculty members worldwide—are necessary to respond to the complex challenges presented in business school programs and in today’s information-rich business environment.
The GMAT Verbal, Quantitative and Total Scores will not change. Test takers will receive a separate score for the essay, as they do now, and for the new Integrated Reasoning section. The overall length of the GMAT exam (three and a half hours) will not change. When the Integrated Reasoning section is added, the Analytical Writing assessment will be streamlined to include only one 30-minute essay prompt instead of two.

Next Generation GMAT Exam to Add New Integrated Reasoning Section

Global Business School Exam to Introduce Innovative New Questions in June 2012

June 25, 2010

San Diego, California—The Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) will add an innovative new section designed to measure people’s ability to evaluate information from multiple sources. The new integrated reasoning section, scheduled to be introduced in June 2012, will provide business schools with a window into how prospective students respond to the kinds of complex challenges they will encounter as managers in today’s information-rich business environment.
The coming enhancements to the GMAT exam stem from multiple surveys of business school faculty conducted during the past four years by the Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC), owners of the exam. GMAC solicits input from faculty as a regular part of its commitment to continuously improving the GMAT exam. The Council unveiled the changes to the exam here today at its Annual Industry Conference, the largest gathering of graduate business school professionals in the world.

The integrated reasoning portion of the GMAT will capitalize on innovations in technology and assessments and feature questions that further enhance the validity of the test. These questions include information from multiple sources, such as charts, graphs, and spreadsheets. Examinees will be asked to analyze information, draw conclusions and discern relationships between data points, just as they must do in business school.

“The new integrated reasoning section of the GMAT will be a microcosm of today’s b-school classroom,” said Dave Wilson, president and CEO of GMAC. “These questions will provide critical intelligence to schools about the ability of prospective students to make sound decisions by evaluating, assimilating or extrapolating data.”

The overall length of the GMAT exam (three and a half hours) will not change. The new integrated reasoning section will be 30 minutes long and replace one of two essays that are part of the GMAT’s analytical writing section. Admissions officers have stated and GMAC research has shown that performance on the essays is closely aligned, making a single essay acceptable for predicting performance.
The GMAT exam’s verbal and quantitative sections will not change. As a result, when the new section is introduced in June 2012, tests will be scored on the same 200–800 scale used today. Test takers will receive a separate score for the essay—as they do now—and another distinct score on the new integrated reasoning section.

About GMAC
The Graduate Management Admission Council (www.gmac.com) is a nonprofit education organization of leading graduate business schools worldwide dedicated to creating access to and disseminating information about graduate management education. GMAC is based in McLean, Virginia, and has a European office in London. The GMAT® exam was created in 1954 and is used by nearly 5,000 graduate management programs at approximately 1,900 business schools around the world to assess applicants. The GMAT—the only standardized test designed expressly for graduate business and management programs worldwide—is continuously available at more than 530 test centers in over 111 countries. More information about the GMAT exam is available at www.mba.com.
