Hi quickdash,

Since the At-home GMAT is a relatively new product offering, there isn't a lot of 'precedent' for how these types of situations will be interpreted by GMAC. While I certainly believe that you left the Exam simply to go to the bathroom (and not to 'cheat' - for example, to look up a grammar rule for an SC or ask another person for help/advice) - there's no way to prove that those things did not happen. I suspect that some consideration will be given to how far into the Verbal section you were when you left the room - and potentially how well you were performing up to that point in the Exam - but from a functional standpoint, you broke one of the 'rules' of the At-home GMAT so GMAC has to decide how strict it's going to be about that rule. Since the typical waiting period for many GMATers has been 3-7 days, we probably won't know until then (or perhaps longer) what the overall results (both in your Score and whether GMAC 'flags' it or not). I imagine many people would be interested in hearing how this ends up, so I hope that you'll post back here once you hear word.

GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,

Hi quickdash,

I’m curious to see how all this plays out. Please keep us updated and let us know once you hear from GMAC. Hopefully you get your score in 7 days.
