A Special Message From GMAC Zach

After almost five years at GMAC, Inside the GMAT host Zach Fernebok is moving on to a new opportunity. In this special short episode, GMAC Zach reflects on why he relaunched Inside the GMAT, what he learned from talking directly with test takers, and why helping candidates cut through misinformation became one of the most meaningful parts of his time at GMAC. Before signing off, he shares one final GMAT pitch: in a world that is increasingly noisy, persuasive, automated, and fast-moving, your ability to think critically may matter more than ever. Take the GMAT for the score. Take it for your application. But also take something bigger from the experience—the ability to question assumptions, work through uncertainty, recognize when something only feels right, and think for yourself. And don't worry: Inside the GMAT isn't going anywhere. New voices are coming, and the journey continues.
