I have my GMAT online exam coming up.
My mac has configuration as: macOS Monterey and Chip: Apple M1.
Is this configuration supported for the test?
I tried installing ESSecureBrowser but it is not responding. I did install it using the developer setting, allowing any app and it got installed.
I have written to [email protected] for confirmation.
Has anyone taken up the test with below config?
UPDATE:
I got the response!
They said it wont work.

Sorry about the bad news.
P.S. GMAC and Examity are usually very shy and conservative with the Macs. Often they work when they are supposedly not supported. I am not suggesting you try after being told it does not work but many people using Big Sur a year ago when it just came out were able to use it just fine. So, it is not a hard "no" per se.

Hi Roy867,
Fellow Mac user here. As bb has already alluded to, don't lose hope that your new M1 Mac won't work just yet.
It's likely that your GMAT online exam actually will work on M1 + Monterey, and that GMAC just doesn't want to make any promises.
In fact, I found a GMAT online debrief post from a user on Reddit who said that their exam did work on an M1 Mac + OS Monterey! Unfortunately, like so many others, they did also complain about significant lag issues, but sadly, this is a common complaint with the secure browser, and appears to have little to do with what type of computer / OS you are using:
https://www.reddit.com/r/GMAT/comments/ ... mac_issue/
Keep in mind that Examity's Secure Browser (ESSecureBrowser) is designed not to open until the test begins, so that's normal and not a bad sign — though it certainly seems so at first.
