to determine his or her performance in analyzing and evaluating data. The GMAT (Graduate
Management Admission Test) is required for certain courses of study in the field of finance and
economics. Please note that there are many exceptions, and you
may want to consult with
EducationUSA adviser for more information on graduate admissions programs and exams.
The Fulbright Program will provide you with test vouchers for these exams, as well as
