Drawing on Screen for GMAT online [#permalink] New post   19 Jan 2021, 14:42
Hi,

I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts whether it is okay to draw on the screen when taking the GMAT online?

My monitor is glass and I can use Expo markers on it. For me, I find it is really helpful to write on the Sentence Correction problems and label. I couldn't find anything from GMAT that says not to do this.

Hi. Great idea but unfortunately you will not be able to comply with the rule that requires you to show a clean erased board, demonstrating that you have fully erased your work.

One of the conditions of using a physical whiteboard on the GMAT online test is that you show a clean erase board at the end of your test. This means before the optional break you you take it or at the end of the test.

PS. This is probably also slightly unfair since you will be able to write on the screen on top of the text. I don’t think GMAC will endorse this.

Good idea but not an option.
B.

Yea I felt that it could be considered taking advantage of taking the exam online.

You probably would not be allowed to draw on the screen when taking the GMAT online but you can confirm by writing an email to GMAC regarding the matter.
