Hello,
I have found myself with a spare 6 weeks or so. I wanted to use this time to study for the GMAT - I might not be going on to do an MBA this year, but possibly next year and I just think it is a useful test to have out the way given the score is valid for five years, I understand.
However, given the test centers are closed due to the coronavirus pandemic, is there much point doing this? I understand there may be an interim test available online - but would the score for that be valid for years to come?
Thanks

Is there any point preparing for the GMAT now?

The online test is available now. The online score is also valid for five years. https://www.mba.com/frequently-asked-questions/gmat-online-exam#question17

Besides not having the the Analytical Writing Assessment Section, what are the pros/cons of doing the GMAT online/at home?
Would you suggest to do it online?
Are there any news if it would be possible to take it on line even after the 15th June?
Thanks

I am not sure what you are asking. The pro is that you get a GMAT score. The con is that you miss out on the journey to and from a test centre.

I will still prepare, although I would prefer to do the test in a test center.

But wouldn't you be more likely to get a higher score on the online GMAT, given there will be no analytical writing section? Seems to me that should make things at least a bit easier.

When I submitted my preparing to the professor then he replied this is very impressive.
