GMAT Prep Test for Mac Users [#permalink] New post 02 May 2011, 09:03
I am having a hell of a time operating the GMAT Prep software with my Mac. I've figured out a way to open the program and do the first practice test, but at the end of it I didn't see my final score. The problem is, every time I want to open the program I basically have to uninstall and reinstall it. Has anyone else with a Mac had this issue, and is there a way to recover my practice score?

It seems as if your best bet is buying a cheap netbook or getting a PC, as the official publishers of GMAT Prep (mba.com / GMAC) say it's only for PC:

If you have lots of time to try to find a workaround, then I guess it's worth it. But if you don't, then it may not be. Just IMHO.

Dual boot your Mac with Windows ( i know it's a heinous crime!!) I did that just to take GMATPrep.

You can use any of the various 'virtual machine' tools, such as vmware fusion or parallels desktop. I think parallels would suit your needs just fine, and they have a 14 day free trial.
