Pearson Vue -> Advices & Information [#permalink] New post   19 Sep 2005, 01:10
Hi Guys,

I am gonna take the exam for the 3rd time. One time below 600, another time low 600 so this time I would like to reach 650 at least. Date of exam is early october.
However, now the rules have changed :roll: I am wondering if there is anything really new from the Pearson Vue test compared with the old ETS test. Except the erasable tablet (I have difficulties to understand the way it works), is there any other big changes ?

Thanks

the Pearson VUE test begins in 2006. so now we will face the old system...right?
have the exam creaters also changed or just the GUI for the test and scoring services?

depending on the test center, u can take the Pearson Vue GMAT or the ETS GMAT , contentwise there is not change, the only difference may be the GUI to a certain extent, and the erasable board instead of the usual scratch paper. ETS will not deliver the exam after 1/1/06. There are some test centers who deliver both PEarson and ETS, u can visit mba.org for a list of those.

kayser,
But I think Pearson VUE will start from Jan. 1, 2006. I just checked mba.com again, here....

https://www.mba.com/mba/TaketheGMAT/Regi ... andACT.htm

Do some centers offer this from now itself?

Antmavel,
When did you register? When you registered, did the website mention that it will be Pearson VUE test?
Please share the information, it will be useful for all of us.


Best Regards,
Vivek

I was sure I got this inormation but actually I can not find it back so I assumed I misread something. Sorry :cry: :?
