Well, you have five score reports included in the price for each GMAT test.

And it is a near monopoly (GRE is the other B School test for many schools now), but the cost of the report is something you just have to deal with in the application process if you apply to more than five programs.

Yes i know its compulsory but i am just wondering why its so.Pearson Vue doesnt have to make some extra effort in making that score available to new schools.even if one has to take account of the effort in setting up a webpage . it doesnt warrant throwing out $28 .what justifies coughing up that amount when every one is talking about equity and equality.The apping process becomes a question of who has more firepower to last longer in the app process
Why dont they just reserve a link to the score for a period of 5 years .Applicants could forward the link to any school they were applying to.Its a deliberate strategy to skin applicants.

You are absolutely right, but look at the big picture - this is nothing comparing to what you'll pay for tuition, and comparing to how much you will earn after graduation. There are many costs in this process but in the end it's worth it!
