Date Typo - Worried!

by faraz_jeddah » Mon Nov 18, 2013 4:21 am
Hello,

I gave the GMAT on 17th November and I reported my scores to 4 different schools.

After the exam, I was handed my result (print out). The date mentioned on the print is 14th November 2013.

I realized this today and I called the testing center and they said that "its ok". I demanded that it be rectified.

Today, I wanted to submit an application online to on one of the b-schools (that i reported my scores to) and the system asked me when the score was reported / when was the test date - I dont know what to choose 14th or 17th??

I need URGENT help here!

Much appreciated.
A good question also deserves a Thanks.

Hi faraz_jeddah,

I just spoke to my colleagues about this and can verify this for you if you send us the email address you used when registering for the exam and your GMAT ID.

Please either send this information to me via a private message or email it to [email protected]

Thanks,

Tina,

I tried emailing you the information and the mail bounced ?!
Is the email you shared correct?

I would prefer the correspondence to be on email rather than private messages.

Regards,
