Several people have posted about the GMATPrep software erasing their exam results. I believe I've found a way to prevent this problem. When you are using the "Review your responses" option, make sure you review all the way to the end by clicking on "Next". When you click "Next" on the final question, you will return to the review screen and your results will still be saved.

However, if you are reviewing the questions and you click on the option that says "End Review", you will see this message:

Do NOT click "Yes"! If you do, then your exam results will be erased.

Thanks for conforming that :)
I've been doing the same for my normal GMATPREP tests 1 and 2 and face no issues at all. My friend however stresses on the point that "he never clicked the end review button midway and still lost all the results" which has forced my to RECORD the video of the entire session :( until we get an update from GMAC.

To add on to theabove trick:
Another way to preserve the results if you want to quit the review midway --> Go to the REVIEW SCREEN from the current location by pressing the Image button --> then press the Image button.

Regards,
Vivek

Thanks mevicks. I've also noticed that this problem does not apply to the free GMATPrep tests 1 and 2: on those tests, your results are always saved, even if you click the "End Review" button.

However, for the Exam Pack, which has Exams 3 and 4, then clicking the "End Review" button and confirming "Yes" will erase the results.
