Free plan
Free GMAT prep that starts today.
GMAX is free to start. You sign up with an email address or a Google account, pick a section, and answer your first adaptive GMAT Focus question right away. The free plan needs no card and runs on no trial clock.
What the free plan includes
Each daily budget resets at midnight Eastern time, and the Problem of the Day changes at midnight UTC. Every answer comes with an explanation, and GMAX tracks your progress across all of it.
5 practice questions a day
Quant, Verbal, and Data Insights share one daily budget of five adaptive questions. Study with Friends sessions draw on the same five.
One rated match a day
Play a 2-minute sprint or a first-to-2 match against a rated opponent on the same questions in the same order. Your GMAT-scale rating moves with the result, and a rematch counts as your match for the day.
The Problem of the Day
GMAX picks one 705+ question each day, and every user gets the same one. Come back tomorrow for the next.
5 review questions a day
Re-drill the questions you missed or saved, with the explanation alongside.
One Question Rush game a day
Answer rapid-fire questions of rising difficulty, untimed, until you miss three.
One tournament entry a day
Enter one short bracket tournament (first to 2) a day from your phone or laptop. Gold and Platinum unlock arenas and longer formats.
How adaptive practice works
Every GMAX question carries a difficulty on the GMAT Focus score scale, and GMAX keeps a separate practice rating for you in Quant, Verbal, and Data Insights, starting at 405. GMAX aims each new question a little above your current rating. Answer correctly and your rating climbs, so the next question aims higher; miss and it aims lower. Your first ten answers in a section cast a wide net to find your level fast, and after that GMAX narrows the range. You can also set a difficulty range yourself to drill one band; the 705+ band needs Platinum.
GMAX draws from 16,000+ original questions across Problem Solving, Critical Reasoning, Reading Comprehension, Data Sufficiency, Two-Part Analysis, Multi-Source Reasoning, Table Analysis, and Graphics Interpretation, and it skips questions you answered recently, so five questions a day stay fresh for a long time. See the live count by section and type.
An explanation after every answer
After you submit, GMAX shows whether you were right, the correct answer, and a written explanation of why. Data Insights questions come with an on-screen calculator, as on the exam, and GMAX draws each Graphics Interpretation chart and gives each Table Analysis question a sortable table. Read the explanation on every question, including the ones you got right. It often shows a faster route than the one you took.
What free does not include
The free plan has no AI tutor and no full-length practice test, and the longer match formats stay locked. Think of it as a daily habit, not a full course. If you have a test date, one of the paid plans fits better.
Who Gold and Platinum are for
Gold
Gold suits someone with a test date who needs volume: unlimited practice questions in every section, full analytics, review of every missed question, all match formats, timed Question Rush, and one full-length adaptive practice test.
Platinum
Platinum suits someone who wants coaching and full rehearsals: everything in Gold plus unlimited full-length adaptive practice tests, an AI tutor for step-by-step help, custom AI-generated questions, personalized study notes, and the Score Improvement Guarantee of up to +140 points (terms apply). Platinum starts with a 7-day free trial, one per account: GMAX asks for a card up front and bills monthly when the trial ends unless you cancel.

Make five questions a day count
- Spend the five on your weakest section. GMAX keeps a separate rating for each section, so five answers in one section move that rating, and the questions it serves, faster than five spread across three.
- Read every explanation and write one line about what you would do differently. Our free error log template gives you the format.
- Play the daily rated match for timing practice. Two minutes against a rated opponent builds a sense of pace that untimed drilling never does.
- Answer the Problem of the Day even when it sits above your level. One hard question a day with a full explanation makes the top band look familiar.
- Read the Data Insights guides. The section carries a third of your score, and each of its formats rewards a routine you can practice.
