Hey SritamaSanyal,
You can take 8 attempts total in your lifetime, and maximum of 5 attempts in a year, but there should be a gap of 16 days between each attempt.

Hi Sritama,

First, there is a 16-day waiting period between exams of the same format (both in a testing center or both online). If you switch formats—for example, first take it in a testing center and then switch to the GMAT Online—there isn’t a waiting period.

You can take the GMAT up to five times total in a rolling 12-month period, regardless of format. For example, you could take it three times online and twice in person in a 12-month period and that would be your five-test limit. Likewise, you can take the GMAT up to eight times total in your life, regardless of format.

Hi all,

is the online test still limited to two attempts or also to eight attempts just like the GMAT taken in a test center?

Thanks in advance!

The online test now works the same as the in-person test in terms of allowed attempts.
