Hi everyone,
I need to register to the test, and the Deadline to send my official Gmat result to my University is March 15.
Anyway I don't have too much time to prepare my-self, and every single more is important.
I know that on his website the GMAC says that it takes up to 20 days, anyway it is probably due to the time spent to correct the Essay(AWA). I also know that the unofficial score reports it's immediately avaible online after the test, hower I need to send an official score report(so I'll probably choose to get the official score report online, because i think that it would be faster).

Do you have any direct experience, any idea ??
Do you think that to have the exam only 1 week before(without AWA), it would be too late?
Please tell me, thanks.

I gave the GMAT twice.

The first time it took the GMAT on the 7th Jun, got the official score report on 12th and scores were reported to the 5 schools by 15th.

The 2nd time, I took the test on Oct 27th, Got the official score report (including AWA) on 29th and scores were reported on Nov 1st.

Hope this helps.
