MBAhelp prepares you for the GMAT Focus Edition exclusively as private tuition – the most intensive and effective form of preparation, tailored precisely to your level, goals and schedule.
Since early 2024 only the GMAT Focus Edition is offered. It is fully digital, lasts just 2 hours 15 minutes and consists of three equally weighted sections. There is no Analytical Writing Assessment (AWA) and no Sentence Correction; Data Sufficiency is now part of Data Insights.
| Section | Content | Questions | Time | Score |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Quantitative Reasoning | Problem Solving | 21 | 45 min | 60–90 |
| Verbal Reasoning | Reading Comprehension, Critical Reasoning | 23 | 45 min | 60–90 |
| Data Insights | Data Sufficiency, Multi-Source Reasoning, Table Analysis, Graphics Interpretation, Two-Part Analysis | 20 | 45 min | 60–90 |
| Total | — | 64 | 2 h 15 min | 205–805 |
All three sections contribute equally to the Total Score (205–805, in 10-point increments) – unlike before, when Integrated Reasoning was scored separately. New convenience features let you bookmark questions and edit up to three answers at the end of each section; you choose the section order.
Target scores: Leading programmes often expect a Total Score of around 645–705 (Focus Edition). Because the scale is new (205–805), old 200–800 scores do not map 1:1 – an old 700 corresponds to roughly a Focus score of 645.
