Hi all!
Yesterday I took the online version of the GMAT. I received a 710 (Q47 V40). Approximately 6 hours after my exam, however, I received an email saying that my exam has been flagged for administrative review. Here's some things that happened during my exam that, in retrospect, make me realize why GMAC might have flagged my exam.
During my first break, I tried checking in with my proctor but she wasn't around. It took 4 minutes of the break before she unmuted herself, apologized, and walked me through the break instructions. During the first 4 minutes I made repeated attempts to talk with her in order to get some clarification on whether I could go use the bathroom. Another mishap happened during the quant section when the testing program crashed and she had to re-launch the exam on my end. This was resolved in a matter of minutes though. The proctor asked me to re-adjust my camera angle twice during the exam (which I did) so I was thinking that could perhaps be a reason too? Lastly, after the IR section my proctor was again not answering me and she didn't ask me to show her my erased whiteboard. The break time just ran out and I continued with the essay without giving things much thought.
I realize that those administrative reviews can take some time but I have deferred MBA deadlines coming up soon (mid/end of April). I know most schools accept unofficial scores but it just so happens that I don't remember what my IR score is lol. Is there any way I can reach out to GMAC to find out what my unofficial IR score is so I submit that in my application? Thanks!

Hello, mv11, and welcome to GMAT Club. Because you scored above a 700, your exam might have been flagged automatically, as this post would suggest. However, your exam might also have been flagged for any of the reasons you listed. You will just have to wait for GMAC™ to sort everything out and put an official stamp of approval on your score. While you are waiting, you might consider reaching out to the schools to which you intend to apply to let them know the situation and ask whether you should report a less-than-certain IR score. My guess is that they will not care, as long as you can remember the total score. You can, of course, contact GMAC™, but you are not likely to get a response on something that has not been finalized. Please post again once you have everything sorted out so that others who may be facing similar issues may benefit.
Good luck.

Given your debrief all that can be said at the moment is just be patient and wait for the result of the review.
You may reach out to GMAC in about 5-7 working days incase you do not get to hear anything on your review status.
In the interim you may work on application as this might help in distracting your mind..
Wish you the best.
