Hi there,
I took the GMAT today at the test center and got a 730 - 48Q/42V but an IR 2. I'd really like to retake just because I know I can do better on IR and I am dissapointed in my performance. I booked the GMAT online for Sunday at 10am just because I think I was stressed on test day and wasn't able to perform my best and I think I can redo it again soon for better results. I already booked the exam, but suddenly got anxious while reading the policies about the 16 day wait. According to this article, it says that you don't need to wait if you switch formats, but I'm not so sure. Can someone please help me confirm? I don't want my scores to get cancelled.

"First, there is a 16-day waiting period between exams of the same format (both in a testing center or both online). If you switch formats—for example, first take it in a testing center and then switch to the GMAT Online—there isn’t a waiting period."
Thank you so much,
Super anxious

You can give the Online exam within the 16-day period without any concern about your recent in-person score being cancelled.
All the best with your next attempt. Some quick Quant and Verbal tips on the GMATKnight website.

Hi bellsprout25,
First off, a 730/Q48 is an outstanding Score, so you can comfortably apply to any Business Schools that interest you. As such, a retest is probably not necessary. Many Business Schools have publicly stated that they do not use an applicant's IR score when evaluating an application, so you likely have nothing to be concerned about with an IR2. However, if you're interested in what a specific School/Program thinks about the IR score, then you should research that School directly (you might also consider contacting the School to ask).
There's certainly no harm in retaking the Official GMAT - and since you are going to take the At-home GMAT next (after taking your 1st GMAT at a Test Center), the 16-day wait period does not apply. Depending on the Schools that you plan to apply to, you would likely find it beneficial to speak with an Admissions Expert about your overall profile and plans. Those Experts should be able to answer your Admissions questions and help define the specific areas of your profile that could use some improvement (and the more time that you have to act on that advice, the better). There's a Forum full of those Experts here:
