Hi every one
Actually I couldn't find any other place to post this thread
and I am terribly sorry about it

My question is : does any one experienced rescheduling of exam appointment to another country ?
because of some reason I have to do it , but as you can see there is a message on MBA.com that says there is a 50$ fine for rescheduling time or location of your test center it also says you have to call the Customer Center for changing the country
and I called the center (middle east) but surprisingly he said you have to
cancel the exam and register it again !!! that means another 120$ loss for me

I was wondering if any one experienced the same problem as I do.
thanks and sorry for misplaced topic again :)

I have rescheduled it recently and it takes 50$, if rescheduled in the same country

(I opted for another location and time, in the same country)

For example
30th June New Delhi, India to
15 August Pune, India

It can be done directly from the website (NO calling or anything else necessary) and 50$ are charged

P.S I dont know if they charge more for change in country, although I don't think so.
Success is a journey.....enjoy every moment of it

yes there is a real user friendly process to reschedule your exam (in the same country)

But I guess it is so unfair to register for exam again because of changing country isnt it ?!

You have to be one of the very few cases...

I would press GMAC with rational reasons and convince them to make an exception and charge you only $50.

However, I can't provide any reasons to help you. Good luck =).
Yep.
