There's no waiting period if you didn't take the test you scheduled, and it also doesn't count as one of your 12-month or lifetime GMATs.

Hi 1607,

I'm sorry to hear that you were not able to take the GMAT as scheduled - that must have been incredibly frustrating. Since you did not actually sit for the Exam (and did not see any of the questions on the Test) though, the 16-day waiting period does not apply (and this attempt does not count against the current 8-attempt lifetime limit). As such, you should be able to reschedule your next attempt almost immediately, if you choose (and you also bypass the issue entirely if you take the At-home version of the Exam, since the 16-day waiting period applies only to Exams taken in the same format).

GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,
Rich
