I am in some big trouble experts and fellow gmat test takers.My exam is on the 24th that is 2 days from now and i am not prepared.I havnt touched on sentence correction,IR and AWA. I have done a lot of maths some months ago but wasnt practicing regularly.In verbal in the last few days i have just been able to do RC.
I gave my first mock test and got a score of 530 around 2 days back,my target is 700.
Now i have 2 days left should I write the exam even after being aware of the fact that i will not get a good score and will have to give the 2nd attempt
Its not like i can reschedule with 50 dollar anymore.gmat has asked me to pay whole 250 dollar again for rescheduling in such a short notice.
So I anyway dont get any refund.I have paid 250 either i reschedule it and pay 250 or just give the exam and again pay 250 for the next attempt.
Money is not an issue.I am worried that if i go and write it,it will be like a wasted attempt and may be some colleges dnt like students with multiple attempts
My brother advises me to give it as an experience or mock because he feels i have nothing to lose.
What would you all suggest
1)Do i go and give it now (treating it like a mock exam)
2)Reschedule it and not waste my 1st attempt
Please Reply asap

Hi, I'm not an expert to answer this but someone inspiring to crack GMAT.
I found your concern related to whether GMAT should be attempted half prepared or wait for full preparation.
Offcourse for your point 1 if you go for the test you have an advantage of having the first up experience of the test
and prepare well for the next timee.
Disadvantage is you would have the score on the records.
Personally as you are(530) way off your target of 700 i feel you should postpone it.
I also urge you to go through this link regarding cancelling your scores (which is other option btw).

I would take it for the reason your brother stated: experience the real thing to gauge your stress levels and your time management skills.
On a related note, keep in mind that school favors individuals that showed improvement on their scores.
Someone that went from a 530 to 700 shows the ability to learn from his mistakes. If you bomb it now, study well for your next attempt and exemplify your drive to improve yourself as a professional and student.
Good luck
