根据从GMAC中国区负责人得知的最新消息,以后,GMAT取消成绩的考试也不再显示C。因此,一场取消了成绩的考试只有你知道你考过,从此可以放心刷考试了!下面小编就来为大家介绍具体内容。
改革一:GMAT成绩单中删除已经取消成绩的C标记
GMAT考试结束后,考生可以根据自己在考试中的表现,对本场考试的成绩进行取消,从而一定程度上避免因为表现较差导致的低分被计入成绩单中。但即使考试选择了取消成绩,成绩单上仍会出现一个代表取消的“C”,对于追求完美的考生来说多少有些心里不踏实的感觉,而本次改变后,此标示将被彻底删除,以后也不会再显示在成绩单上,考生可以更加放心刷分,而不必担心因此留下任何记录。而之前考试成绩单中的取消标示,也将被一并删除。
改革二:二次考试时间间隔缩短到16天
GMAT考试之前在两次靠时间的间隔为31天。本次调整后两次考试间隔时间将缩减为16天,可以方便考生在更短的时间内连续参考,对于急需考试成绩来进行申请的考生来说,是极为方便的措施。当然,每12个月内5次的参考限制仍然保留。这就意味着考生能够在短期内通过多次参考来进行刷分,更有效率地提升自己的GMAT成绩。需要注意的是,由于生效日为7月19日,因此在此日期之前报名,仍需按照31天的间隔来进行考试时间的选择。
其他改革内容:网上查分的验证密码将被考生生日所取代
GMAT考生通过网上在线查分时,需要输入独立的身份验证密码,查询过程较为繁琐。本次调整后,考生可直接输入个人生日日期信息进行验证,更为方便地查到自己的考试成绩,而不需要再多记一组额外的密码。
以上就是GMAC在其官网公布的GMAT考试最新调整相关信息,从这些调整中,相信大家不难发现,GMAC正在就考试考生的用户体验进行一些改进,更加为考生着想的做法,想必也会受到更多考生的欢迎。
新闻原文一览:
The Graduate Management Admission Council® (GMAC®) is committed to enabling potential MBA candidates to connect with the best opportunity for and access to graduate management education. As such, GMAC is introducing three new features to improve and streamline the GMAT exam experience for test takers. GMAC asked thousands of candidates and test takers about their GMAT experience and how to make it better. We listened and took action. These new features and options for test takers are effective July 19, 2015.
Cancelled Scores Removed from Score Reports
The “C” that represents a candidate’s cancelled scores will not be shown on any future GMAT score reports generated by GMAC. This means that when a test taker cancels their score, only the test taker will know. This feature will be applied retroactively to all previously cancelled test scores, which will be removed from all future score reports that are sent to schools. However, score reports with cancelled scores have already been sent to schools, they can’t be modified.
Removing cancelled scores from the score reports will help candidates gain more control and confidence of their GMAT experience—something that candidates have repeatedly asked for. In a survey of more than 3,000 students, 85% of respondents indicated that they would like to see the “C” removed from their score reports. This feature will also help deter any misinterpretations of cancelled scores in candidate profiles.
Please reference the Cancelled Score Policy Update FAQ for additional questions.
Repeat Exams Allowed after 16 Days
Candidates have the option to retake the GMAT exam after a 16-day time period (versus the current 31-day retake period). This allows candidates the flexibility to retake the exam within a shorter period of time in order to accommodate their schedules, study habits, peak performance times, and/or school deadlines.
As always, candidates can’t exceed five GMAT exams within a 12-month period.
Authentication Code Replaced with Date of Birth
Candidates will be able to view their Official Score Report online using their date of birth to authenticate their access. A separate authentication code will no longer be issued at the test center.
This change is expected to streamline the process for candidates to access their GMAT scores—and everyone likes one less password/code to remember.
