Hi guys,
Im wondering if anyone knows if there is a minimum lead time to book the GMAT. For example, if you wanted to, could you book the test tomorrow, or do you need to give at least a week?
thanks

Nope, you don't need any lead time really. A day is enough... assuming:
The main restriction on taking the GMAT is available slots at the testing center committed for the GMAT (the testing centers offer many other tests).
For my first attempt, I kept my eye on one date and kept checking availability. About a week before said date, a spot opened up and I booked the slot.
For my second attempt, I reserved the spot about two months ahead of time.
That being said:
I would advise against booking the test with one day of lead time. The test requires some mental prep and motivation (proper sleep, a bit of relaxation before the test, prepping for things to take with you (water/snacks), etc.), and you might become a bit panic stricken if you have less than 24 hours to address the day of the test.

Cool thanks Mohater. I don't intend to book a day in advanced, probably just a week or two, but didn't know if I needed to book a month in advance like retakers do.
