Hi bb, egmat, GMATNinja,
I am going for another GMAT online attempt after facing a technical glitch earlier.
This time I want to make sure that I do not face any issues, even though I checked all their technical requirements last time also.
Could you please share some tips to avoid technical issues.
I am thinking of using a different laptop this time, would that be a safe option?
Is a touch screen laptop allowed?
Thank you.

Hi, guys! A have a major doubt.
Last week, I could finally end my GMAT battle: 720 (Q49/V40), after a year of study!
However, this has been such a tough journey and one of the times that I took the GMAT online, the screen just locked in front of me, when I had already completed all the Quant section and was Verbal's question 15.
I GOT CRAZY ABOUT THAT!
To make a long story short, Pearson gave me a voucher to reschedule the test and didn't cancel the score of my LACKY TEST, which clearly was awful (510, since I had a Q47/V15, because I couldn't finish the Verbal part).
So, my doubt is: should I be concerned about going after Pearson so they cancel this Online GMAT test that I took, because it can hurt my candidacy? Because I'm really not concerned about my life-time GMAT taking limit, since I got the score that I wanted.
I read that they took so long to answer and, as crazy as they're, I'm just afraid that they wrongly cancel my beloved 720!
So, is it really worth the stress, considering that it was an Online Test and, as such, won't be in my Official Report? At most, I thought that, if needed, I could adress this issue at an Optional Essay, even because Pearson gave me the reembursement through a numbered case (Case # xxx, which I could mention).
Moreover, I saw that the same split as mine resulted in two different scores for other people: 710 and 730. Yet, I'm just afraid to ask them to revise it. Who knows what Pearson thinks, right? haha

Hi MaliFri, you have nothing to to worry about. You said it yourself: GMAT online scores—which, unlike test-center GMAT scores, cannot be cancelled—are not included in the official test-taker score report, nor do they show up in the official GMAC score report sent directly to schools.
In other words, adcoms will only see the GMAT online scores that you choose to send. Otherwise, it appears as if the online exam(s) never happened.
