GMAC is committed to helping schools and students connect, and we believe this change, by making the testing experience easier, will be a part of strengthening those connections,

Under the new process, test takers will see their unofficial scores-Integrated Reasoning, Quantitative Reasoning, Verbal Reasoning and Total.

Analytical Writing Assessment scores will remain unaffected by the change. They are not included on unofficial score reports available immediately but are reported on official score reports delivered within 20 days.
