Is it a good idea to take GMAT sometime later in 2017 and then apply for the colleges 3 yrs later?? i have heard that there are some colleges that do not consider GMAT scores older than 2 years from the date of application

Why not? I think that if you already have GMAT score, you could focus more on choosing schools and earning exp. GMAT score will expire after 5 years, so you still have 2 years for preparing your application, or you could even retake the test for better score.

Hi abirdey1,
The GMAT is a remarkably consistent Exam, which is why scores are valid for 5 years (and those scores are comparable to one another over that time period). It would be strange for a School to publicly state that it would not accept a score that was more than 2 years old - so what was the exact "source" that told you this?
Broadly-speaking, you should plan to take the GMAT when you have the proper amount of study time available to commit to the process of training to take the Exam. Whether that's now or next year (or even later) depends on your situation.
