Hi,
has anyone faced the issue similar to that I'm describing below?

I wrote my GMAT online on august 19, and unfortunately covered my mouth with my palm multiple times during the test. Proctor interrupted me only once, when I moved my head, so that my eyes became unseen by the webcam. Otherwise, there was not communication, and the test ran smooth.
After 7 business days, when no score came, I wrote to GMAC Customer care and then again with details on covering part of my face, proctors changing during the exam, etc. And guess what came to my email? The message saying "Congratulations on completing the GMAT™ Online exam. All your hard work and commitment has brought you another step closer to your goals. Great job!

And now you might be wondering, what’s next? We’ve put together the answer to a few key questions you might want to know. Please take a moment to read and prepare for your next step. [...]"

And right after, an email with the link to the qualtrics survey about the GMAT online experience.

I assume both emails must have come right after I sat the actual exam!?
If proctors did not interrupt me the 2nd time, but I actually covered part of my face, do you think it's GMAC's fault?

Any ideas on tackling the problem? They do not reply to my emails.

P.S. Sorry for an unstructured message, I feel depressed that the situation is ruining my application in the first round (which is critical to me)

I didn’t understand your question. Are you waiting for results or did they tell you your exam is canceled?

Hi I haven't said anything about cancellation in my text. I'm still waiting for the result. The Customer care sent me a standardised response that doesn't answer my questions "why I received link to survey and thank you for taking online GMAT email in > 1 week AFTER my GMAT online?"

I don't even know if I should schedule the retake. And yes, I planned to apply in round 1 everywhere before September 11.

So... I guess this is kind of good news.... unless you are applying to HBS or other schools that need your GMAT Score in September. What are your thoughts? I assume quite a few folks are planning on retaking the GMAT at Home but have not been able to?

It is slightly unfair for the folks aiming round 1 sept deadlines. As people had already discussed if they announce it after august it would only benefit r2 applicants.

Agree. I have to give up on trying to apply for 2021, because applying in Round 1 was critical to me. Great thanks to GMAC!! Idk what to do. There's still a little chance my score will be ready by the deadline. But I hate this suspended state I'm currently in.

And again, I'm sure 99% that those two emails ("thanks for taking online GMAT" and "please go through the survey") must have come RIGHT after my test, and that GMAC *ucked up with my exam processing and now does not want to acknowledge it.

is there any reason we cannot delete the OnVUE application after completing the exam? Just want to make sure prior to deleting that it is not required to access our score or anything like that

No restriction. You'll get notified of your score through a mail, and the same shall be displayed in your mba.com account. No need for OnVue application.

Finally!!!! I've been considering switching to the GRE recently but I think I might be sticking with GMAT after all.

I am curious about two things though. First, if the retake is still possible even if I haven't taken the online exam yet? And second, how long after the first exam will I be able to do a retake?

Hi everyone!

I have a question about Gmat Online and I hope that you will be able to answer it.
I did my Gmat online with online whiteboard the last 9th of June, it went badly and decided to do another one with phisical whiteboard, which will be the next 23rd of September. My question is, after this exam will I be able to do another Gmat online or I’ve run out my possibilities? It seems to me that the possibility to retake with phisical whiteboard was considered in any case still a single attempt by Gmac, but I might be wrong.

Thanks a lot

David

Hey! You can cancel the appointment and book an online appointment... That works, if I’m not wrong..! Because, to my knowledge, I do not know for sure whether we can change the in centre appointment to an online one... I’m betting that we can’t change it that way, and I might be completely wrong! Just try the way I suggested... Might surely work..

Hey. First of all, why are you worrying about retake when you have not taken the first exam itself? Be confident and work hard to ensure you don't need a second attempt. Keep your mind calm and don't let yourself think it is okay as I have a fallback option. This can impact you. Just saying.

Hi guys,
I just took a gmat online exam and wondering if you guys know when I will receive my score? I'll need it by Tuesday which is HBS deadline. How long usually does it take for the scores to appear?
I already have a 710 from a test center exam. I don't think today's exam is gonna be better, but a bit hope isn't bad sometimes haha. If it's better than 710 I wanna enter it in my application before I submit it.

If I do decide to give the online exam with physical whiteboard one more try (I suppose I will have no choice if GMAC announces that retakes do not count toward the lifetime limit), then on my 2nd attempt, instead of taking it in our bedroom at 10 pm with 2 dogs and 3 kids on quarantine and a sketchy Wifi connection, I will book a nice, nearby hotel room weeks in advance, ask my wife very nicely to watch the kids and the dogs for a few hours, and take it at 10 am with blazing-fast Wifi, and no distractions.

Somewhat ironically, I do in fact already work out of a nice, comfortable home office, with relatively good sound isolation and reliable Wifi, where I tutor my private students and my internet router is located, but of course that particular room does not meet the requirements for the GMAT Online, because I have 20 years of GMAT books, information and materials everywhere--on all 4 walls, and on all the bookshelves as well. If for some reason I were crazy enough to try to take the online exam in here, then my test would be cancelled by Pearson Vue test security before it even began, to which I can attest from personal experience ("looking off screen").

In other words, I now see why GMAC is calling it the "GMAT Online" instead of the "At-Home GMAT." :cool:

Even though GMAC has sent out the mail regarding retakes, there has been no updates on the website itself...

Guys, although I am aware that unlike the In Center GMAT, Online GMAT does not offer any official break between the Quant and Verbal section, but is there a breather between the two sections?
As in do you get sometime, 2 mins or so, after the Quant section ends and before the Verbal section starts? Probably a timed screen displaying the instructions regarding the upcoming section or does the first verbal section pop up immediately after the one ends the Quant section ?
Please share your inputs and experiences regarding this.
