In this regard, I have an interesting theory regarding the Online GMAT Retake.. With the price increased to $250, and the attempt being counted, will the GMAC give us a score preview like the test centre?
My theory is that post-23rd, they may give a preview/review of score but you can't get it officially on your mba.com account till the exam recording and documents are duly verified/vetted. It is like you can see your score at the end of exam (and guess what's coming your way in few days) but can get it on your account only after due verification process.
The following evidence supports my theory:
1) GMAC survey post-online exam asked for many questions regarding the score preview/score availability etc. (May be they have learnt that most of us had this complaint/request)
2) GMAC sent a retake email and the following is copy-pasted from the email.
"This price adjustment more closely aligns the test center and online exams and reflects our commitment to deliver flexibility and continuous enhancements including:
Unlimited and free score reporting
Exam accommodations
Choice of physical and/or online whiteboard
Post-exam score review and control before sending to programs
Additional retesting options (coming September 23)"I want your comments on this. Technically it may not be difficult for GMAC to offer this. With the increase in exam fee, they must offer this thing at the least...
