At one point, she believed GMAT wasn’t for her. After scoring 595, self-doubt crept in and she questioned her potential. But instead of quitting, she made the right strategic changes. The result? A remarkable comeback to 695. Check out how Saakshi did it.

Last Thursday GMAT Club had a chance to attend GMAC's webinar about the changes coming to the GMAT Test and it was great to see some new user-friendly features being introduced. I don't believe this was confidential so I am freely sharing the updates with everyone planning to take the GMAT Test soon. This will help you plan and prepare better. The main theme of the webinar was friendliness towards test-takers and making the test more convenient and reduction of anxiety. Here are the changes coming:
Good Luck out there!

- Exam Pack 2 coming on March 21st! Biggest News - now GMAT Prep will have additional CAT's (my guess is 2 more), which is fantastic to have more real questions to practice with.
- OG 2017 is coming in May of this year with 130 never before seen questions (we will check that when it comes out)
- Question Pack 2 is coming in the second half of 2016, another 6 months, but this is great news nevertheless! For those who are just joining us, QP1 was introduced 4 years ago. Definitely time to get some new
bloodquestions... we will work to offer it as a part of the Premium Membership Discount. - GMAC also announced that they are removing 60-day window for cancelation reinstatement. (you can now reinstate a test you canceled more than 60 days out - it is not clear if you can reinstate a test you took last summer, but I think it is clear that anything you take going forward will be reinstateable in years to come). This is great! The timing on the slide suggests that this policy has already been revised but I have not seen a confirmation on the site yet.
- You can now also cancel your test scores up to 72 hours after the test (so you can make your decision after you walk away from the test center. This is great!
- Choosing your section order is still a pilot and if the results confirm the assumption that changing the sequence of the sections does not have a substantial impact on the test, this feature will be made permanent.
- They reminded again, that the retake window has been shrunk down to 16 days.
- Undergrads. There is a new offer available for students currently enrolled in undergrad institutions at https://www.mba.com/undergrad - they are piloting a program that is more friendly towards undergrad students and encourages them to take the test (with some discounts available to a limited number of test-takers since they don't need to send their scores out yet, and would have to pay for score reports again anyway)
Bottom Line:
These are great changes and the introduction of EP2 and QP2 are very welcome news! The other features are just the icing on the cake, taking out the guess work from retakes and reinstating scores. This may likely lead to inflation of scores and multiple retakes, but that's nothing compared to the reduction in stress levels we will all have. GMAC has definitely become much more test-taker friendly organization than I remember them being 10 or even 5 years ago. They appear to be genuine and willing to listen, so if you have any feedback, I encourage you to post it here.Good Luck out there!

I am no longer active on this forum.
. 
. Cannot describe the feeling of defeating this beast.
and how many times you have taken those GMATPrep mocks 7 days before sitting for actual exam? I believe taking mocks frequently just before real exam put oneself in better position in time management & overall stress during the real test.
