I've been in the same situation.
You have the time to carry out a quick and dirty research and choose 5 schools will most probably meet your custom criteria ($, location, rank, score, gpa, etc.), chances are at least 3 of the choices will coincide with the more informed decision you will make 1 or 2 years from now - you can always pay the fee for 2 more or even sit for the exam again and simply send the results to 5 more schools - saving $140=5*$28 =) =) =)

Honestly, the 250$ you pay for the exam is for the exam +5 score sends, each additional score send AFTER you sit the exam will be 28$ a pop. So you know what range you will be in, I would just send the score to schools that you will and or might consider in the future. Perhaps even 1 safety?

I am studying for and will take the GMAT in the next couple of months. However, I am only doing so right now because I have the time to write it. I don't plan on applying to an MBA program for at least a year or possibly two. On the exam day they ask you which 5 schools you'd like to submit your scores to. But, what if I haven't decided which schools I want to apply to? Is there a way for me to choose my 5 schools later on down the road or will I incur another fee for doing so?


Sorry. No :(
Also, in most cases you have to send the scores for the year you are applying for. I don't know if there is an official take on it (we can find out I guess) but usually you can't really send it in for 2013 or smth like that....
