GMAT or GRE? Which is the Superior Choice for a Global MBA

GMAT stands for Graduate Management Admission Test and is conducted by a non-profit council of leading business schools, known as GMAC (Graduate Management Admissions Council). GRE stands for Graduate Record Entrance and is conducted by ETS (Education Testing Services), the world’s largest private nonprofit educational testing and assessment organization. Until 2011 GMAT was the test for master degrees in management (MBA, MiM, MSF etc), and GRE was the test for master degrees in core disciplines (MS in a range of science, arts, and humanities subjects). Then GRE underwent a major change of format and began to be accepted by almost all of the world’s main business schools. As a result, “GMAT or GRE” has become a major question. Exam formats: Both the GMAT and GRE test verbal, quantitative, and writing aptitude. However, the nature of their questions is different. The differences between the two are subtle but significant enough that the two tests require different preparation strategies. The GRE focuses more on memory testing, its verbal questions focus on vocabulary and its quant questions often require an almost direct application of formulae and concepts. The GMAT, by contrast, focuses on logical ability. GMAT verbal questions require more exact reasoning and its quant questions require an extended application of mathematical concepts. Scoring processes: The GRE maximum score was 2400, until 2002 when it was changed to 1600. At the moment, GRE candidates are scored on a scale of 260 to 340, with 327 being the approximate 90th percentile. GMAT candidates are scored on a scale of 200 to 800, with 700 considered to be the 90th percentile. While the GRE scoring has changed a lot; the GMAT scoring has been consistent, for decades. Both tests also have an analytical writing assessment, which is scored on a scale of 6. This score does not contribute to the candidate’s total score. Score interpretation: Most business schools are more comfortable with GMAT scores than with GRE scores. This is because they have been using GMAT scores for much longer and the GMAT scoring has remained consistent. Another reason is that the GMAT has a wider score range, which allows for a more accurate interpretation of the candidate’s standing. Most admissions to the US top 50 happen through GMAT: As per the official GMAC website, 90% of all enrollments in the top 50 United States business schools happen through GMAT. While GRE scores are just as valid as GMAT scores, the numbers do not lie. The top business schools have a clear preference for GMAT, as it is the preferred choice of serious MBA candidates and the one that they are more familiar with. Verdict: While there is no one correct answer, the facts are clear. For a variety of factors, mentioned above, the world’s leading business schools prefer to consider GMAT scores. This may be because GMAT, unlike GRE, was always meant to be a management admissions test. However, it is worth noting that with a high enough score the format will largely be overlooked. Extra tip: There is one scenario where GRE is better. For those who have not decided whether they want to pursue core discipline or management education, GRE’s versatility makes it a good option.

Mechanical drawing courses are nowadays provided by many schools that provide a direct practical knowledge of the technical field. 2. Opting For a Formal Technical Training Or An Apprentice Program : The best way of learning a skill by heart is to assist experts in their work. Depending on your pace of learning, the apprenticeship can go on for 3-5 years. It provides an amazing opportunity to earn a few bucks while learning what it takes to become a skilled technician. From insulating refrigerator lines to soldering and cutting, a trainee is made to perform tasks that help him understand the practical applications and requirements of the job. Only when you work with real tools and in the appropriate environment, you develop the ability to efficiently carry out technical tasks with full expertise. The training enables you to learn the use of the tools in detail and how to use them safely for handling technical requirements. It develops your troubleshooting skills and the aptitude needed to handle different kinds of customers. The biggest perk of opting for a formal training program is that it provides you an edge over the crowd out there. 3. Obtaining Certification : Technical academies, trade schools, and community colleges provide certifications or an associate's degree to the aspirants. The programs provide theoretical as well as practical knowledge of the course along with access to various internship programs. They teach applicants about exercising safety measures in the work environment and how they can utilize the fundamentals of electricity, fuels, furnace, boilers, and hydraulics during work. In order to obtain a certification, you must pass a written and practical examination. The biggest advantage of obtaining a certification in HVAC training is that it makes far easier for you to seek up jobs in the field of your choice. A certification builds up a certain level of trust and the employer considers you qualified and skilled for the job. 4. Getting Licensed : Most of the states and localities require HVAC technicians to qualify for a license in order to practice. In order to obtain a license, you need to clear a state exam. Depending on the state you live in, the requirements for a license can vary greatly. Some states demand 2-5 years of work experience in the same field before they license an aspirant. Getting licensed is the peak of your career as an HVAC technician. Conclusion: Just like any other field, being an HVAC technician requires a step-by-step process involving education and formal training.
