Thanks for your debrief! Congrats on your score!
Do you mind also posting your debrief in the Share GMAT Experience as a new topic?
https://gmatclub.com/forum/share-your-g ... erience-8/


rvsyn
Alright, scores finally showed up after I called them. Here's the debrief of my Online GMAT. Please see the TL;DR version at the bottom. Spoiler: Gonna retake :D

I scheduled my test on May 22nd because that's the only afternoon slot available. So naturally I do the system test one day before and I managed to pass system test. Great! there should be no technical issue at least because I done the system test twice, yeah twice I know I am paranoid like that.

Fast forward to D-Day. I sat at my work station, and 30 minutes before my schedule the begin exam button popped and I begin usual check-in procedure (it is identical with the system test for those who wonder, so please try the system test before you ask myriad of questions in GMATClub), and this was where the nightmare start. The OnVue software kept telling me that I lost internet connection when it was connecting just fine. Note that, when this happen, you can't do anything, the software just freeze as if it was not there. So I restart, redo the whole check-in, and it happen over and over. Finally, when the connection lost prompt showed again, I just connect-and-disconnect my Wi-Fi, this seems to do the trick the OnVue software ran again (duh!).

Okay, check-in done, I'm waiting for the proctor to start the exam (it takes around 15 minutes of waiting), and the exam started. I was running through the instruction section when I thought "Hey, if this is all technical issue that I'm going to face, I'll take it". Well, I might jinx it or the GMAC can read my mind, suddenly the screen goes white with "your file was missing" text or something like that.

I tried to calm myself, clicking the chat button, hoping for the proctor to come to me. 1 minutes, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes... 40 minutes nobody came, I grew anxious at this time, lots of thinking goes in my head "what if the proctor calls me, should I check my phone? but what if he/she sees me off the screen and cancel it". After what it felt about 1 hour of waiting, I reached my phone and no one calls me. I got back to my computer. press ctrl+alt+del (you can't do anything at that point, so might as well try), and it did got me out of the testing screen, and the OnVue prompt me to wait for the proctor to restart. Ok, cool, at least I can start the exam. Then the waiting game continues, and after approximately 15 minutes, the proctor decided 'nah, I'll end your exam right away'.

So that's my first try at Online GMAT, didn't even manage to start the exam. I contacted the Pearson GMAT team, they assure that after 3-5 business day I should be able to get refund and retake. I did get refund and was able to reschedule after 4 business day.

So reschedule I did, this time the test going to be June 3rd (my time, not eastern time). Okay, so now I know how to deal with the internet lost prompt, I still prepare a much better wifi (bought a new wifi dongle, do system test TWICE again, passed the system test).

Fast forward, I actually passed the check-in with no issue, and the test started just fine this time. here's my actual comment on the test

Quant
I think quant is harder somehow, I did the overall section 5-10 minutes slower, and I felt that it tooks me 4-5 minutes on some questions. But anyway, I feel confident that at least I can get a Q49.

Verbal
This is where it gets bad. I felt that while it is not that much harder, I got 3 long RC passage for the first 8-10 questions. This takes so much of my time and kind of pressured me to go faster. But this is not what causes so much stress on my Verbal section.
FYI, I positioned my phone so I can see if someone from Pearson calls me (this is the paranoia from my previous try). And you know what, they did call me! in the middle of the exam (I checked the number after the exam for some who wonder). the caller has US country code, and I got stressed and distracted in the middle of the exam. But still I managed to finish.

IR
Nothing special on this one, I think I ace IR.

At this point, I want to mention that no proctor has ever contacted me in both of my Online GMAT session. even during the chaos on the first try.

Finished the test, no issue, and I should get the results in 7 business day or even faster right?

Wrong!

Nothing cames out after 7 business day (they did email me to gives feedback on the Online GMAT). Emailed Pearson (they can't help me), Emailed GMAC (doesn't respond). last night I called the customer center number, and she told me she'll help me with that, but emphasized that the score can be released as long as 20 business days.

This morning the results actually came (without any email from them, it just popped in my mba.com account). and here's the score:

Q49
V34
IR8
Composite 690

That's for my debrief. Gonna retake at test-based because my score because it is lower than my 6 official practice exam score. It is sad because I thought Online GMAT has advantages (sending to unlimited schools, no AWA-I'm bad at AWA, etc) but the experience is just so unpleasant that I don't even want to try again.

TL;DR Version
First try, OnVue software bugged and made me wait for an hour before got canceled, didn't even get to start the actual exam
Second try, exam started just fine, got called in the middle, results cames after 10 business days and lots of email to Pearson and GMAC.

If you guys have any questions, please ask!

Hi all! I took the GMAT on June 10 09:45 pm with a digital whiteboard, but I can't schedule a retake for my exam with a physical whiteboard yet.

I'm starting to think that I cant reschedule due to the fact that my exam finished on June 11 1:15 am. However, my proctor explicitly told me that I could not use a physical whiteboard...

Is there anyone who can't schedule his online retake yet as well? Just to check if my problem has anything to do with exam finish time

sweetlyimproved I also took mine on June 10th, in the morning, and can't schedule a retake yet. bb, do you know whether others who took it around June 10th have been able to schedule a retake? Do you think we just need to wait a bit longer? Thanks!

Hi guys,

I just received email from Wharton "To accommodate applicants, the Wharton MBA Program will accept at-home GRE and GMAT test scores." This sounds like for applicants in the next 1-2 years, the online gmat test scores may not be accepted...?

What do you guys thinks about the validity of Gmat online test?

Huh. This is interesting.... i’m not sure if that’s a miscommunication or we are inferring too much but it does sound like they may not except it in the future. I agree with your take.... Who is brave enough to call the AdCom? ?

I don't know but to me it sounds like they will not accept the new Gmat online tests in the near future.

May I am overthinking this but I surely don't want to spend the time and money to prepare for Gmat online and cannot use it next year for example

This is a little concerning as i am planning to apply next year because of the current situation.

bb / Souvik Can you please look into this if possible? My decision to take the online version rests on this.

The Wharton website says the following (emphasis as provided in original text):https://mba.wharton.upenn.edu/mba-application-requirements/#1582746962208-d222029f-3ab1

"In response to social distancing and stay-at-home measures, the Wharton MBA Program is accepting at-home GRE and GMAT test scores through the 2020-2021 admissions year."

My interpretation is that as it currently stands, the Online GMAT is not acceptable for other future admission years at Wharton unless they post another update deeming it acceptable. Surprising... I take this to indicate that the adcom does not feel the two exams (online and in-person) are interchangeable / of the same validity. From the perspective of a prospective applicant for next year (2022 entry) this makes me think best to stick with the in-person exam as it may be looked upon more favorably than the online version.

Hello GMATCoachBen,

I took the exam around June 9 and can schedule a retake, as per my mba.com account. Maybe it is some glitch and you should be able to see it soon.

Not open yet. Also, no slot open till dec-20. Looking at the situation, online GMAT seems to be the only choice

Thanks for sharing Ben.

If you go into your mba.com account and click on "Register now or view appointment details" and then on "exam history", does it say June 10 or June 11? Mine says June 11 because I finished the exam on June 11.

In what time zone are you in? And what time did you finished the GMAT? Did the interface on the GMAT app was already adjusted with messages in regards to the physical whiteboard?

Hi Guys

Apologies in advance if this is not the right thread. But searched the forum and could not find a proper thread. If there is a relevant discussion going somewhere on this topic, please direct me.

Query: I am done with my GMAT and trying to find a good consultant to work with. Have figured ReachIVY as one option. Has anyone worked with them in past and give me some feedback as they charge a bomb, its important to only go ahead if they are good. Meanwhile, if others have some positive feedback about Admission Consultants in India or in US, please do share, This is really needed. I have been doing my research for a week now, unable to zero in on anyone. Thanks.

Hi bb!! Is anyway to confirm this?

Im planning to apply for a bs on 2023 2024...... I've been studying for gmat to take advantage of the total quarantine in my country......

It doesn't sound reasonable ... I mean if they accept the online score now... why wouldnt they accept it later?

To me it is unreasonable to assume that they wont accept online scores later. They have no where written that the online score is not valid for future applications.

I think he is assuming that because, in the future, applicants won't need to "Be acommodated" then bs won't accept the GMAT scores... but I don't believe that that is gonna happen. I really need to be optimistic on this one... otherwise more than nine months of studying put into thrash my friend....

True. But I would say its better if we can wait for a reply from either bb or souvik since they will be in contact with both Wharton/schools and GMAT exam guys. I think this is a pressing issue which needs to be reolved ASAP.

This is the whole message from Wharton's email:

"If you’re considering your MBA and have not yet taken an admissions test, you’re likely wondering if Wharton will accept the new at-home exams.

To accommodate applicants, the Wharton MBA Program will accept at-home GRE and GMAT test scores.

This new format allows you to take exams virtually, while being monitored by a proctor online. The 2020-2021 application will open in July 2020."

I don't know but to me it sounds like they will not accept the new Gmat online tests in the near future.

May I am overthinking this but I surely don't want to spend the time and money to prepare for Gmat online and cannot use it next year for example


Hi bb!! Is anyway to confirm this?

Im planning to apply for a bs on 2023 2024...... I've been studying for gmat to take advantage of the total quarantine in my country......

It doesn't sound reasonable ... I mean if they accept the online score now... why wouldnt they accept it later?

To me it is unreasonable to assume that they wont accept online scores later. They have no where written that the online score is not valid for future applications.

I think he is assuming that because, in the future, applicants won't need to "Be acommodated" then bs won't accept the GMAT scores... but I don't believe that that is gonna happen. I really need to be optimistic on this one... otherwise more than nine months of studying put into thrash my friend....

Hi. We are super swamped with MBA Spotlight and won’t have time till next week. Sorry. I would recommend you guys reach out personally. I think it would be good to start engaging with AdCom if you are an applicant.

Hi all! I took the GMAT on June 10 09:45 pm with a digital whiteboard, but I can't schedule a retake for my exam with a physical whiteboard yet.

I'm starting to think that I cant reschedule due to the fact that my exam finished on June 11 1:15 am. However, my proctor explicitly told me that I could not use a physical whiteboard...

Is there anyone who can't schedule his online retake yet as well? Just to check if my problem has anything to do with exam finish time

sweetlyimproved I also took mine on June 10th, in the morning, and can't schedule a retake yet. bb, do you know whether others who took it around June 10th have been able to schedule a retake? Do you think we just need to wait a bit longer? Thanks!
Thanks for sharing Ben.

If you go into your mba.com account and click on "Register now or view appointment details" and then on "exam history", does it say June 10 or June 11? Mine says June 11 because I finished the exam on June 11.

In what time zone are you in? And what time did you finished the GMAT? Did the interface on the GMAT app was already adjusted with messages in regards to the physical whiteboard?

sweetlyimproved Mine says June 10th, because I finished around noon Pacific time.

No, I didn't see any messages regarding the physical whiteboard.

However, I still can't schedule a retake.

It appears that we both may need to email them.
