Can someone answer this please?
I was planning to give it in the last week too. However dates aren't available for online gmat. Why though? Isn't gmat online conducted every single day?

Yes, Gmat Online is conducted every day. IMO, it's always a limited number of sessions running at the same time. i guess most of the slots are pre-occupied. Please keep checking, you may get one. Or please write to GMAC for this reason.

They are quick to respond.

I have emailed customer care as well. Ideally slots are available 24*7 and it is very unlikely that ALL slots in the last week of October are full when multiple slots are available in the week before and in the week after. Do let me know if you get a response from them.

I answered my first GMAT Online exam on 18th October, 2020. Since I have a retake option, I tried booking another appointment for the 8th of November, 2020 but I am being directed towards payment during Pearson Vue checkout. I am aware that my payment included two GMAT Online exam attempts.

The mba website states that the exam can be taken once every 16 days. Am I required to wait for 16 days to book the appointment as well?

Hi,
I'm taking the Gmat Online version next week and I'm wondering how to log in "Onvue" software on test day?
You probably get an access code like for the system testing.
Thanks for your help.

Hello all,

Today my friend took the online GMAT exam and everything was going well until midway of the verbal section where the screen zoomed in and she was not able to read the question or the timer or the question number. Dispite her trying to contact the proctor there was no help. Finally she had to guess the next 15 questions after which her proctor reset the test for the IR section.

Could someone provide directions on how to address this issue.

You have to pay for the second attempt. GMAC is now charging $250 for this test.

The free retest option expired long time ago. It was only meant for those who had taken the early whiteboard-only option. Only those people were given the option to take a free retest with the physical board.

Note that your second attempt will now count towards your lifetime and yearly limits. You must wait at least 16 days between two online test dates.

They should file an official report with GMAC/Pearson and provide full details. It may take up to 30 days to receive a resolution.

Gave my GMAT online yesterday (21st October). I guess it will take a few days for me.

On the forum I've been reading people usually get their results in between 4 and 7 business days.

Keep us posted on your result updates.

Got my results today!

730 - Q50, V38

Results took less than 48 hours.

My exam was scheduled at 12pm on Wednesday. Got the results today early morning on Friday.

I'm happy with the scores, so I guess this is the end of my GMAT journey.

I have been reading that GMAT online quant is more time taking and difficult as compared to test center mode. Is it true?
