GMAT® → GRE® Score Converter
Enter your GMAT® Focus Edition total to see the equivalent GRE® score. Based on GMAC and ETS concordance data.
How this works:This converter chains GMAC's GMAT Focus→Classic concordance with ETS's Classic GMAT→GRE comparison tool. The result is an estimate — no official GMAT Focus→GRE conversion exists. Use it for setting target scores, not for admissions decisions.
Where this puts you
Average GRE scores at top MBA programs (published class profiles). A competitive score is at or above your target program's average.
How This Converter Works
Is this conversion official?
No. Neither GMAC nor ETS has released a direct GMAT Focus→GRE comparison tool. This converter chains two separate concordance tables — GMAC's Focus→Classic concordance and ETS's Classic GMAT→GRE comparison tool — to produce an estimate. Treat it as ±2-3 points on the GRE scale.
Why does the suggested V/Q split matter?
The converter outputs a GRE total (V+Q). In reality, your Verbal and Quant scores are reported separately, and schools may weight them differently. The "balanced split" shown above is just one possibility — if you're stronger in Verbal, your V score might be higher (and Q lower), and vice versa. The total is what this converter estimates; the split depends on your individual strengths.
Should I take the GMAT or the GRE?
Nearly all top MBA programs accept both. If you already have a GMAT score, this converter helps you understand where you'd land on the GRE scale — useful if you're considering retaking or switching tests. The GRE can be advantageous if you're also applying to non-MBA graduate programs, or if your Verbal skills are significantly stronger than your Quant. Take a free practice test for each to compare your starting percentiles.
Can I convert section scores separately?
ETS originally provided section-level conversion tables (GRE V→GMAT V, GRE Q→GMAT Q), but those mapped to the old GMAT 0-60 section scale. Chaining through the Focus Edition's 60-90 scale introduces too much compounding error to be reliable. We recommend using only the total-score conversion.
