The GMAT Exam (Focus Edition) has a new scoring system, ranging from 205 to 805, unlike the previous edition’s 200-800 scale.

For comparison, a 645 on the Focus Edition is roughly equivalent to a 700 on the older (10th Edition) exam. While the new scores might appear lower, business schools are aware of this adjustment and will focus on percentile rankings rather than the raw score when evaluating candidates.
