Today is 5th March and I scheduled my GMAT for 9th March. I just found out that passport is a must for taking the test in India.

The name on my passport is "Mohammad" Fauz while the name on registration and every other document is "Mohd" Fauz. I am very scared as I've already scheduled my exam.
Please reach out to me ASAP.

Consider reaching to to GMAT customer support (or Examity if you are giving it Online). You may want to have a digital copy of your passport ready to send.

Get in touch with customer service asap:

Else you will likely not be allowed to take the test due to this discrepancy. You would need to follow the name on the passport.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. I am a little confused as to what needs to be filled in the inquiry section, for example- in first name, should I put the MBA ID one or the new correct one and what is test taker ID.

Hello! Yes, I was able to talk to one of the customer service agent. If anyone else wants to, they can go to mba. com -> contact us. He was very patient and assuring regarding my query. Long story short, my name has been updated in the system and I will be able to appear for the test.

Good Luck To Me!!!
