sky, my sympathies with you. I have heard of this sort of thing happening. One of my friends was kept waiting at the centre (located in Dubai) for nearly four hours and was then told that the technical fault couldn't be resolved. GMAC rescheduled her date (for free, ofcourse) to the date she wanted. Hope you get the date you've asked for and best of luck for the test.

Today was my second attempt of GMAT after a rigorous study of about 1 month.But what happened at the center is what I have never heard before.I was fully prepared and reached the center one hour before the scheduled time that was 10 am. Then after 10 am crossed, we were informed that there was some technical problem so it might :angry take some time to get it corrected and we were supposed to wait by that time.After half an hour we were told that the problem may take 2 or 3 hours to be fixed so our exam can not be conducted . It was like a shock :shock: . I have not read anywhere on any of the forums about this kind of GMAT experience.It is a bad day for me. :cry:
Now, the GMAT center people have taken our details and asked all of us present there to give them three dates so that they can schedule a date for us and they will inform us on Monday or Tuesday.
I am very sad because after so much preparation when I was determinant to write the GMAT, it just fumed into the air. :( :arh I hope this would not happen to anyone else.

Regards,
sky
