Thank you. I kinda know I can do nothing about it, since it's their test.
But, I also wonder what kind of reason does GMAC deems "reasonable"?

carcass
I am so sorry for that. I also do think that this policy does not hold any water.

However, they make the test, they are the owner, you play by their rules.

You have nothing to do for overcoming this lifetime limit. Moreover, they have already replied you, so............nothing to add over.

Regards

Hi TonyNobody ,
I am sorry to hear that you have been denied another attempt at the GMAT . I am pretty sure that you can reinstate your best score .
If nothing works out with GMAT , then attempting the GRE won't be a bad idea since a lot of b schools are accepting the GRE now . :)

Hi,

I heard that they ask for proof for your need to take the GMAT - for ex. letter from university stating that you need to re-take

I heard that as well. I think it would be difficult that top b-school would provide such a letter to prospective students, but i'm gonna give a try.
Plus, I also don't know whether GMAC already flag me after the appeal or not.

Thank, anyway.

620 (far from 700 target) ?

Posted from my mobile device

I meant the previous 7 - if you're getting denied, you have at least 8 attempts already, right?

Hi BB,

Wouldn't that defeat the purpose of canceling the score? The B-Schools will be aware of the number of attempts that you have taken and would that not be a negative aspect towards your application.

You can choose which score(s) to reinstate. Schools will see only the reinstated scores.
