Vocabulary is not tested on the GMAT!
The GMAT Verbal section has three kinds of questions: sentence correction (grammar), critical reasoning, and reading comprehension.

Hi zhangjun111:
There isn't a specific number of vocabulary words you need to have for the GMAT--it's more about having a decent comprehension of English as well as a familiarity of GMAT English grammar.
