What the section tests

The Quantitative Reasoning section of the GMAT Focus Edition gives you 21 Problem Solving questions in 45 minutes. Each question offers five answer choices and tests arithmetic or algebra: fractions, percents, ratios, number properties, statistics, counting, probability, equations, inequalities, exponents, and functions, often inside a word problem about rates, work, mixtures, or money. GMAC dropped questions that require geometry when it launched the Focus Edition, and it moved Data Sufficiency into the Data Insights section.

The section adapts to your answers as you go and gives you no calculator, so clean setups and quick mental arithmetic matter more than memorized formulas. GMAC reports a Quant score from 60 to 90 and weights it equally with Verbal and Data Insights in the 205–805 total.
