Kaplan Publishing (New York, 2010) (eng) EnglishUnknownUnknownUnknownGRADUATE MANAGEMENT ADMISSION TEST; UnknownKaplan Test Prep and Admissions, the worldwide educational services leader, today announced it has aligned with Thomson Prometric, the global leader in technology-enabled testing and assessment services, to provide Kaplan GMAT test prep students with an opportunity to take the "Ultimate GMAT Practice Test." For the first time ever, students preparing for the GMAT will be able to take a practice exam in an actual Thomson Prometric testing center - the same centers that administer the real GMAT on test day. The GMAT, Graduate Management Admissions Test, is required as an entrance criterion for students applying to most business focused programs at graduate institutions worldwide. With the agreement, Kaplan becomes the only test prep provider that enables GMAT students to practice under real test conditions - before taking the actual exam. "The Ultimate GMAT Practice Test is designed to give students valuable exposure to the computer adaptive test (CAT). CATs are often difficult for even experienced test-takers, as their dynamic nature causes the level of difficulty to rise with each correct response," said Justin Serrano, General Manager, Graduate Programs for Kaplan Test Prep and Admissions. "Additionally, the realistic environment will help students anticipate variables like security issues, travel time, and noise, so they can minimize anxiety associated with the unknown on test day." This unique opportunity will be provided to Kaplan's GMAT students at no extra cost as part of Kaplan's newest GMAT course, which launched on July 10. The in-center test will be administered as the final of five practice computer adaptive tests that are included in the GMAT
