Hello all, does anyone know why there is a shortage of available online slots in the upcoming days?

I was checking availability and there wasn't any suitable time (between 10 am to 3 pm) for the next 15 days (as per Indian Standard Time atleast).

Is it because proctors and time slots are shared across the world? Or are they divided by regions - NA, APAC etc.?


In fact, there are NO slots AT ALL for next 15 days. I checked from India. Next available online GMAT date is 18th May! Test centre dates also now shifted to 11th May as the earliest date of availability (but I strongly believe it's impossible before 17th May). Is GMAC trying to update existing exam? Such as touch screen/stylus etc??!

No my friend... It's because your system is collapsed... In argentina I can schedule an exam even for tomorrow....

That's indeed surprising! I just took a mock with good internet connection. Then tried to book a slot, running into this. It must be the case for Indian test takers I believe.

I only see 18th May onward in your screenshots! Then it's the same as I said. No option to select for 4-17th May.

I also see the same with a proper connection, quite strange that there is not a single time slot available, as before there were 24/7, I guess it should be some kind of issue.

Hopefully, they get more proctors available soon, as 15 days in advance seems a bit odd to register for the current exam situation.

If anyone has further news please comment!

Regards,
Pablo

I randomly see dates open up if I refresh but then when I try to schedule they disappear. Similar to what was mentioned earlier, a couple days ago I saw 24/7 spots open and now everything is booked for next 2 weeks. Anyone else running into this issue?

On MBA site, there is a new button for "Send GMAT Online Score," but I still have not gotten the email with my score. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there any way to find out my online score aside from the email?

GMAC just keeps fumbling how to address this situation, and it's making me mad. Why do we have to wait 15 days to register for the damn thing? GMAC said you can register 24 hours in advance... and now I can't even find a weekend date until May 30? I don't want to take this thing while there is construction going on right outside my apt (as we can't even use earplugs) - ugh, I hate this.

Here is my concern: does anyone know if let's say you absolutely bombed the online exam, since you can't cancel the score, when you send the non-online GMAT report to schools, does the report include the score of the online disaster? Thanks

Anybody want to shed some thought on my insidious, yet intelligent plan...

So I'm trying to schedule face-to-face time with a Veritas Prep expert instructor for $185/hr. I'll be taking the online exam within 7 days, so I feel that I need some genuine interaction and communication; that's just me. Anyhow, Veritas Prep said I have to become a "Veritas client" first, which I was told on phone meant buying a class. The cheapest class they offer is a Self-Study plan for $699. Thus, my plan was to buy the course, then have the instructor hour, then ultimately refund my course. There website mentions "a full refund is available" if nothing is opened within 7 days, and I plan not to even touch it. Additionally, I spoke with Veritas Prep's Sales Director and she said my loophole would work.

Ultimately, do you think my loophole plan would work. The Director seemed genuine, but then again their goal is to get money, so I'm not sure. I would appreciate any thoughts on if my plan of buying the course and tutoring, receiving only the tutoring, and then refunding the course would work and if Veritas truly means what they say. It would mean a lot for someone trying to save money.

Thanks

Not possible to see the score :-(

The only score record is your email it seems but you can send your score report to the school, officially. It will get there within 24 hours
