New GMAT Features Debut July 19
The Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC) will introduce new features for the GMAT entrance exam for applicants to business school. These three new features, which will go in to effect on July 19, will help to improve the GMAT exam experience. The new features were created out of the results of GMAC surveys of GMAT exam takers’ experiences. Here’s what you can expect with the new GMAT features:

Test takers can choose to cancel their score if they don’t feel as if they have done as well as they had hoped.

The new feature will eliminate the C on the submitted scores, so that the test taker is the only one who knows that a score was cancelled.
