Sample GMAT Exam (Focus Edition) Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to review concepts for the GMAT Exam (Focus Edition) exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1If 3x + 7 = 22, what is the value of 6x − 4?
A.26
B.30
C.34
D.38
Explanation: Solve 3x + 7 = 22 → 3x = 15 → x = 5. Then 6x − 4 = 6(5) − 4 = 30 − 4 = 26.
2A car travels 240 miles in 4 hours. At this same average speed, how many miles will it travel in 7 hours?
A.400
B.420
C.440
D.460
Explanation: Speed = 240 ÷ 4 = 60 mph. Distance in 7 hours = 60 × 7 = 420 miles.
3A store marks up an item's cost by 40% to set the retail price, then offers a 20% discount off the retail price. If the item's cost is $50, what is the final selling price?
A.$52
B.$54
C.$56
D.$58
Explanation: Retail price = $50 × 1.40 = $70. Final price = $70 × 0.80 = $56. The 20% discount applies to the marked-up price, not the original cost.
4If the average (arithmetic mean) of five numbers is 12, and four of the numbers are 8, 10, 14, and 16, what is the fifth number?
A.10
B.11
C.12
D.13
Explanation: Sum of five numbers = 5 × 12 = 60. Sum of the four known numbers = 8 + 10 + 14 + 16 = 48. Fifth number = 60 − 48 = 12.
5A tank is filled by pipe A alone in 6 hours and by pipe B alone in 12 hours. How many hours does it take to fill the tank if both pipes work simultaneously?
A.3
B.4
C.5
D.6
Explanation: Rate of A = 1/6 tank/hr; rate of B = 1/12 tank/hr. Combined rate = 1/6 + 1/12 = 2/12 + 1/12 = 3/12 = 1/4 tank/hr. Time = 1 ÷ (1/4) = 4 hours.
6If x² − 9 = 0, what are the possible values of x?
A.x = 3 only
B.x = −3 only
C.x = 3 or x = −3
D.x = 9 or x = −9
Explanation: x² = 9 has two solutions: x = √9 = 3 and x = −√9 = −3. Both values satisfy the original equation.
7A box contains 5 red marbles and 3 blue marbles. If two marbles are drawn at random without replacement, what is the probability that both are red?
A.5/14
B.5/16
C.25/64
D.10/28
Explanation: P(first red) = 5/8. Given first is red, P(second red) = 4/7. P(both red) = (5/8) × (4/7) = 20/56 = 5/14.
8The sum of three consecutive integers is 48. What is the largest of the three integers?
A.14
B.15
C.16
D.17
Explanation: Let the integers be n, n+1, n+2. Then 3n + 3 = 48 → 3n = 45 → n = 15. The three integers are 15, 16, 17. The largest is 17.
9Company X had revenues of $2,400,000 last year and $3,000,000 this year. What is the percent increase in revenue?
A.20%
B.25%
C.30%
D.80%
Explanation: Percent increase = (Change / Original) × 100 = (600,000 / 2,400,000) × 100 = 25%. The increase of $600,000 represents one quarter of the original $2.4M.
10If 2^(x+2) = 32, what is the value of x?
A.2
B.3
C.4
D.5
Explanation: 32 = 2^5. So 2^(x+2) = 2^5, meaning x + 2 = 5, thus x = 3.

GMAT Exam (Focus Edition): Suggested Study Strategy

1Master the Data Insights section early — it is new to the Focus Edition and requires practice with all five question types (Data Sufficiency, Multi-Source Reasoning, Table Analysis, Graphics Interpretation, Two-Part Analysis).
2For Critical Reasoning, always identify the conclusion, premises, and assumption before reading the answer choices — the GMAT rewards structured reasoning over intuition.
3Remember: Data Sufficiency is now in Data Insights, not Quantitative Reasoning. Practice DS questions as part of your Data Insights preparation.
4Use the official GMAC practice exams (available at mba.com) to benchmark your performance on the 205–805 scale — unofficial tests may not accurately reflect the adaptive algorithm.
5Geometry is no longer tested on the current GMAT exam Quantitative section — do not waste preparation time on geometry rules.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is the current GMAT exam different from the old GMAT?

The current exam was introduced as the GMAT Focus Edition and replaced the GMAT Exam (10th Edition) in February 2024. It is shorter, has 64 questions, does not include the AWA essay or Sentence Correction, moves Data Sufficiency into Data Insights, and uses a 205–805 Total Score scale.

What is tested in Quantitative Reasoning?

Quantitative Reasoning has 21 Problem Solving questions in 45 minutes. It measures arithmetic and elementary algebra applied to numerical problems. A calculator is not available, and geometry and Data Sufficiency are not part of this section.

What types of questions are in Data Insights?

Data Insights has 20 questions in 45 minutes across five formats: Data Sufficiency, Multi-Source Reasoning, Table Analysis, Graphics Interpretation, and Two-Part Analysis. An on-screen calculator is available in this section.

How is the GMAT scored?

The Total Score ranges from 205 to 805 in 10-point intervals, and each section is scored from 60 to 90. Quantitative Reasoning, Verbal Reasoning, and Data Insights contribute equally. There is no pass/fail threshold; programs set their own competitive expectations.

How much does the GMAT cost, and how many times can I take it?

In the United States, the current fee is US$275 at a test center and US$300 online; fees vary by location. You may take the exam up to 5 times in a rolling 12-month period, must wait at least 16 days between completed attempts, and face no lifetime attempt limit. Scores are valid for 5 years.

Should I guess if time is running out?

Yes. GMAC penalizes incomplete sections according to the number of unanswered questions. Submit an answer to every item before time expires; GMAC does not publish a fixed extra penalty for an incorrect guess.

What is GMAT Superscore?

If you have multiple valid current-edition attempts, GMAC automatically calculates a Superscore from your highest eligible section scores. Expired and canceled scores are not included, and the report identifies the contributing attempts.
