... and of course all others following this thread.

Is it adviseable to either speed up quant slightly and use the last 2-3 minutes on the last online GMAT quant questions to just 'relax' and zone out for a couple of minutes? I also have the tendency to finish verbal quite early, so timing was never the issue.

I thus think about shaving the last 2-3 minutes off of quant and the first 3 minutes off of verbal to get at least somewhat of a break in. Recommendable?

I think the better move is to start taking practice tests in this way, so you can start to train for the lack of break provided with the online GMAT.

When I attempt to register for an online exam, it says:

"A price could not be found for the selected exam. Please contact customer service for further assistance."

Anyone else getting this?

There is no official standard for the wait time. At least not yet but usually it’s at least 15 days and most the time 20.

16 calendar days from today. Your GMAC account will tell you when you can register. If you register within that window, you will get an error.

Are online scores separately sendable from test center scores? Thinking about giving the GMAT online without pressure since I've already reached my target score in person. However, I was quite shaky on the quant section which caused me to make many mistake.

I feel like its worth doing it online, what I don't want however is to not be able to keep the same state of alertness and, eventually, completely bomb the online version which could then make the test center score look like a lucky strike to schools.

Experts advice ?

A little bit off-topic, I know, but I thought readers might enjoy this article about potential widespread cheating and hacking on ProctorU's TOEFL iBT Special Home Edition, At-Home GRE, and LSAT Flex exams:

I daresay the online version of the GMAT has not seen a huge increase in cheating. At least nothing so far has been reported to that effect as far as I know haha.

In this article one thing that kind of throws a little shade at the GMAT is this one line (I've not read the entire article) - "The three main standardized tests required to apply for graduate or law school are the TOEFL (if you are a foreigner), GRE, and LSAT. "

GMAT did not even get a nod!

Agreed. Based off my own ancecdotal experiences taking the online, at-home versions of both the GRE and the GMAT (my first attempt at the GMAT Online was cancelled due to my "looking off screen" before the test had even begun), it certainly feels that that the GMAT Online's proctors and policies are more strict than those for the At-Home GRE.

Thanks for posting. This is an interesting article, even though it is rambling in sections.

The article seems to be pointing to problems with the ProctorU system. Primarily, the issues boil down to ProctorU having limited access to testtaker's computer and its running processes, since ProctorU seems to be only using a browser extension. This isn't surprising and this problem has been known. What is somewhat confounding is that agencies using ProctorU's services do not seem to have implemented new standards to prevent cheating.

GMAT On-Vue system appears to use different arrangements. It seems to take complete complete control of the testtaker's computer and hence has access to everything that could be happening. So the problems here could be fewer or non-existent.

I think that testing agencies have a powerful weapon. If testtakers are discovered to have cheated, then they can be banned, reported to programs and even legal actions taken against them. It is possible that these agencies are relying on these mechanisms to deter cheating. Time will tell how this all pans out.

Wow. Interesting. Thank you for sharing! And all this time we have been praising GRE for implementing a great testing system.... 🙄🤦‍♂️

Usually what happens next is a lot of scams pop-up offering to help cheat on the exam only to take one’s money and run away. There’s nothing man can do to catch them I’ll report them really. The Perfect crime.

If more thickness is a issue.
I will recommend this.

Hi harsh, do you know if this board would drool if we hold it upright to show to the proctor?

Ignore that link, they are just magnetic sheets.
It would be better to go to an stationary shop and buy a board convenient for you.

Is the online GMAT easier/higher scoring than the offline? I see many debriefs where people got more than they were expecting.

Guys, so what exactly happens to the 1st GMAT online score, if I write it again? (Just in case my score happened to be lower than the 1st attempt, or something)
PS. I'm really sorry if this is a silly question, its just that I really wanna try to improve my score.
