Folks:

You risk ruining your chances to go to business school by discussing ScoreTop questions, or by even using their website.

I just heard from a very reliable source that it's NOT in your best interest to discuss ScoreTop questions on this forum, or even to visit the ScoreTop website. ScoreTop is currently being sued by GMAC for publishing live GMAT questions as well as other illegally copyrighted material.

Here's what my source has to say:

"Warn your users not even to go on ScoreTop anymore. GMAC is also threatening to (a) find out who posted the live questions, ban them from taking the GMAT, AND reporting the names to b-schools, and (b) potentially finding out who looked at or discussed items labeled "live" (that is, people who knowingly looked at live questions) and doing the same to those users."

Be careful, and thanks for your help!

By the way--I apologize for spamming you with this message. I just posted this same content in all the subforums.

Just wanted to make sure you're reminded everywhere. Smile

Now that GMAC has realised that people are infact "cheating" do you think they will radicaly change their questions on the actual GMAT in the coming days? Just concerned bacause I am taking my test in four days. Good luck everyone.

I dont think so, it wont affect type of questions they ask in GMAT; nor GMAC policies or style of conducting the test would change!


PS: Sorry for replying late, I think you've already done with GMAT bynow :p
