Primary answer
The GMAT Focus Edition is section-adaptive, meaning the difficulty level of questions within a section adapts based on the candidate’s performance in that section. Performing well early in a section can lead to more challenging questions, while incorrect answers may lead to easier ones. This adaptive design helps accurately assess a candidate’s ability level across Quantitative, Verbal, and Data Insights sections.
