The average GMAT score varies a bit from year to year.  There are also many different components to it.  You receive separate verbal, math, and writing scores as well as a composite score.  The average verbal score is about 27 while the average math score is about 36.  The average total score is 545.  Want to do better than average?  Let Nova Press help you prepare with the Nova Press GMAT Prep Course!

Nova Press wants to make sure you have all of the information you need in order to master the GMAT.  Our GMAT Prep Course contains 3 different sections, each devoted to a different section of the GMAT.  Part One covers all of the math that you will need for the test.  There are many subsections, each devoted to a specific mathematical concept.  Each subsection also includes clear examples and explanations as well as practice questions (with answers) for you to apply what you have learned or what you are reviewing.

The verbal section contains subsections devoted to reading comprehension, arguments, sentence correction and an analytical writing segment.  Nova Press outlines specific tools for you to use in order to improve your reading comprehension, including categorizing the six main types of questions asked, reviewing pivotal words, and outlining a specific three-step method that you can use on test day to succeed.  The arguments sections helps you to understand the “point” of each argument, so you can choose the correct answer, even if the argument is fallacious and the “right” answer is actually wrong.  We focus on making sure you have the tools you need to be able to understand what the argument is and what is being asked.    The sentence correction subsection details eight different areas that are commonly tested on the exam and gives examples and explanations for their proper usage.

The analytical writing segment makes sure you understand the two different types of writing that the test-graders are looking for.  It reviews basic grammar and punctuation, gives tips on how to develop your own writing style, rubrics so you can evaluate your own writing with the same criteria used by the test-graders, and sample prompts to practice with.

Looking for an MCAT Verbal Reasoning book?  Studying for the MCAT is a monumental task, and Nova Press has the books for you.  Our MCAT Trilogy covers every aspect of the MCAT, Verbal Reasoning included.  Incorporated in the Biology book, the Verbal Reasoning section focuses on reading comprehension and critical reasoning.

In the reading comprehension section, we outline exactly what to expect on the test.  This includes the timing, number of passages and questions, and about how long each one is.  We outline specific reading methods that are most effective for this test and debunk the myths about other methods.  Then it’s time to get into the details.  The Nova Press MCAT Biology Book specifies the six main types of questions asked on the test and how to approach each type.  This simple step can increase your score by narrowing down your answer choices to just those that answer that type of question.  Further, sample reading passages, questions, and explanations of the answers are included with each type of questions, so you can practice the application of this technique.  Then, you’re on your own!  Practice reading passages with questions are provided for you, but the answers are given later, so you have time to decide what you think before checking your answer.

The reading comprehension section also reviews pivotal words, so you are sure to understand the point for all of the reading passages.  Often what a passage means can hinge on the use of one word, and Nova Press wants to be sure you are clear on those words.  Finally, we outline a three step method that you can use on test day to be effective on test day.

The critical reasoning section first focuses on making sure you know how to analyze an argument so that you can determine the intended conclusion.  Understanding the conclusion is key in helping you to answer the questions following the argument correctly.  Making sure you understand what premises can be assumed and which can’t is also key to doing well on this section.  We detail the eight common fallacies to look for when reading an argument.

When looking for an MCAT Verbal Reasoning Book, rely on Nova Press.  Our MCAT Trilogy will make sure you have the materials to be prepared for every aspect of the test.

The GMAT is a standardized test required by business schools in order to “measure aptitude” for business school.  Being a standardized test, it has problems similar to the SAT, though the format is different.  Additionally, the GMAT includes two sections that are different from the SAT and cover material that you probably didn’t learn in school.  But before you freak out, let Nova Press help.  Our GMAT Prep Course can help you prepare for this test so that you feel confident on test day.

GMAT scoring is handled separately for each section of the test.  You receive a score between 0 and 60 for the verbal section, and a separate score between 0 and 60 for the math section.  You will also receive a total score (200-800) and a writing score (0-6).  The average Verbal scores is about 27, the average Math score is about 36, and the average total score is about 545.  In addition to these scores, you will also receive a percentile ranking.  This reflects the number of students whose scores are below yours.

Working with Nova’s GMAT Prep Course can help you develop strategies for improving your scores in all areas of the test.  Whether it be figuring out how to determine which answers are most improbable, to understanding how the test is laid out, to helping you develop a study plan, Nova Press makes sure you are ready.  GMAT scoring won’t be as much of a concern if you spend the time to really learn the material and the layout.  Nova Press is here to help.
