Hi,

I just took my GMAT but had a problem with the Issue essay. I ran out of time just as I was finishing the Issue essay. Am I in trouble - did it get submitted automatically or my Issue essay will just not get scored.

Regards,

Yes, if you run out of time, your essay will still be graded. It will be incomplete, which will probably count against you overall, but what you wrote will be counted. :-)

Thanks for your responses. I received the official score report and scored a 6.0 in AWA.
