I am not able to retake Practice test 1 as there is no option for a "Retake".

In order to retake GMAT Prep tests, you have to reset them.

On the screen in GMAT Prep that shows the tests you have taken, the Take A Practice Exam screen, in the lower left corner, there is a Reset button.

On another note, be clear the GMAT is not a test of concepts of knowledge, but rather a test of skill in figuring out how to get to answers and making decisions. So when you retake tests, to the degree that you see repeated questions, even ones the answers to which you don't fully remember, you are not really being tested in what the GMAT tests. So while repeating GMAT Prep tests once can be a good idea, repeating them more than once can actually be rather counterproductive.

Here's a blog post on resetting and repeating and the results of doing so that I have seen.

And between the additional 4 tests you can purchase from mba.com and all the practice tests offered by various companies, there's not really any need to reset a test. (Here's our free exam, if you're interested: https://www.veritasprep.com/gmat/free-g ... tice-test/

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
