Dear All,
I have a doubt regarding my GMAT exam. I am planning to give my GMAT soon but confused whether I give GMAT online from Home or GMAT exam at Test Center.
I have four major queries here-
1. If a Test Center is operational and accessible in my 80 mile radius can I still opt for GMAT Online
2. Whether all the B-Schools and their programs covered in GMAT exam also covered in GMAT online
3. Why there is no AWA in GMAT online will it impact the importance of GMAT Online somehow
4. If GMAT online has feature of score sharing with unlimited B-Schools, won't students will opt for this exam only
Kindly enlighten me over these queries so that I can chose one method and opt for a date soon.
Regards,

Hi Feddy171,
You ask a number of important questions, so we should start there:
-You have the option to take the At-home GMAT regardless of whether there is an open Testing Facility near you or not.
-While individual Schools may have a specific view of the At-home GMAT, a score result from that Test is still considered valid for Business School applications.
-Since there is no AWA on the At-home GMAT, it's certainly possible that a School might ask you for some other material that would gauge your ability to write an organized response to a prompt (such as an additional essay when you apply). If you would like to know how a specific School/Program might respond to this issue, then you should contact the School and ask.
-While the convenience of taking the At-home GMAT is pretty obvious, there are at least a few notable issues that many GMATers have described about that Exam. First, there have been a number of reported technical problems that have impacted that administration of the test and the current format of the Exam requires that you take the Quant and Verbal sections with NO 'break' in between (whereas when testing at a Facility, you can take those sections in different orders and you have the option for an 8-minute break between them).
Before I can offer you any additional advice for your studies, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on how you've been studying and your goals:
Studies:
1) How long have you studied? How many hours do you typically study each week?
2) What study materials have you used so far?
3) On what dates did you take EACH of your CATs/mocks and how did you score on EACH (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores for EACH)?
Goals:
4) What is your overall goal score?
5) When are you planning to take the GMAT?
6) When are you planning to apply to Business School and what Schools are you planning to apply to?

Hi Feddy171,
1) Yes, regardless of whether you have a test center operational in your city, you can always take the online GMAT.
2) Yes, all schools accept the online GMAT.
3) The fact that there is no AWA will not impact how the online GMAT is viewed.
4) Not all students opt for just the online GMAT because some prefer to take the GMAT at a test center.
For more information about the online GMAT you may find it helpful to read the following article:
