Prospective Student Survey 2018
Introduction
9,471 Registrants Worldwide Responded to the Prospective Students Survey in 2017
The Graduate Management Admission Council? (GMAC?) surveyed 9,471 individuals who registered on --the Graduate Management Admission Test? (GMAT?) website for prospective graduate business students--between February and December 2017. Each month, a random sample of individuals who registered on the website three months earlier were invited to participate in this ongoing research study. Findings in this report are also based on analysis of data collected in calendar years 2009 through 2017 from more than 126,000 individuals.
Survey respondents represent demand for various MBA and business master's program categories, including full-time MBA, professional MBA, executive MBA, generalist business master's, and specialized business master's programs. Each program category contains specific program types. For example, full-time MBA programs include two-year and oneyear programs. Professional MBA programs include parttime, flexible, and online MBA programs. Generalist business master's programs include master's in management and international management programs. Specialized business master's programs include master's in accounting, business information technology, data analytics, entrepreneurship, finance, marketing, and supply chain management.
This report--the first in a series of topical reports based on this year's Prospective Students Survey--presents the findings associated with candidate preferences for program types, structure, and curriculum.
