Hi guys ,
I am planning to write GMAT exam by end of Jan/Feb 1st week . But I will be submitting my passport,next week, at UK Embassy for work permit extension , which means I will not have my passport during the exam .
i) I could have used my Driving License I had planned to write in my native country .
Will I be allowed to write the exam If I state the above reason ? Is there anyone like me here ?
