GMAT ONLINE RETAKE 28 Dec 2020, 08:01

I read that you are allowed one retake of your GMAT online test, just wanted to check what exactly that means?

Does it mean I'm allowed 2 attempts at the online exam once I've paid and registered for one? Or does it mean that I am allowed to take the GMAT online exam only twice but I have to pay separately for both times?

I have my test tomorrow so just wanted to know my options before I go into it.

Thanks!

Hey - It means that you can take GMAT online twice but will have to pay $250 for every attempt

So say you are attempting GMAT online (#1 attempt) tomorrow, you can appear for another attempt (by paying $250 of course) again after 16 days

However, note that your #3 attempt cannot be taken online it has to be an in centre

PS: Do keep in mind that the GMAT Online attempts do count towards the lifetime attempts (8 in total)

Kudos if it helps

logro got it, thanks so much!

I was hoping it meant you got two tries, glad I know that's not the case.

I think it means you can give GMAT online Twice. I think I would also prefer GMAT online because you are comfortable in your own environment.

Hi Wafas,

Wishful thinking; however, it means that you can take the online GMAT twice but you must pay for both attempts.
