GMAT test dates in Nigeria.
How often the GMAT runs in Nigeria
The GMAT is offered in Nigeria on a near year-round basis, with sittings available Mondays to Saturdays in Lagos and Abuja. That flexible schedule means most candidates can find a GMAT date that lands comfortably before their business-school deadline.
Where the GMAT is held
GMAT test centres in Nigeria are located in Lagos and Abuja only. Candidates from every other state, from Rivers and Enugu to Kano and Oyo, register online through Mafit and travel to whichever centre suits them on test day.
Choosing the right GMAT date
Because business-school rounds have hard deadlines, the safe move is to fix your GMAT date six to eight weeks ahead and leave room to prepare, and if ever needed, retake. Booking early also keeps the widest choice of slots in Lagos or Abuja.
Deadlines and rescheduling
GMAC sets booking cut-offs for each appointment and charges fees for late changes or rescheduling. Registering early through Mafit avoids surprises, and a counsellor flags every relevant deadline for the date you choose.
GMAT Focus Edition on test day
The current exam, the GMAT Focus Edition, is a computer-adaptive test of about two hours fifteen minutes, with three sections, Quantitative Reasoning, Verbal Reasoning and Data Insights, scored on a 205 to 805 scale.
