When I took my GMAT two weeks ago I noticed that the computer I was working on looked quite old. Every time I pressed "next" it would freeze for 1 or 2 seconds. Of course the clock would freeze as well. I was quite happy about it cause it gave me some time to breathe between the questions (not much, but on a test like this literally every second counts). Did anybody have a similar experience? Or maybe it's perfectly normal and I'm just weird noticing such details.. Please share your thoughts.

I wouldn't say it "freezes" per se. It's the program loading content that takes some time, especially when it's computing the scoring algorithm -- that's when it feels like it froze! hehe
