Hey guys I just gave the gmat.
And an error occured at the end while reporting scores. Hence, the test administrator said that most probably i'll have to re schedule my gmat for which I'll be notified after 21 days.

Now the problem is that, I have to apply before 1st july to hbs 2+2 and as due to technical errors my score was not legal it will not be considered !! Now wat to do??? Also I cant reappear before 31days..

Need suggestions to this problem.. Its urgent..

Thanks..

This is a tough break.

My suggestion is to try and talk directly to the HBS admissions office and explain the situation. It will be to your advantage to show that the error was the testing service's and not yours.

This is not the first time that this has happened so communicate early and clearly and hope for the best.

Cheers--

I have no idea if HBS will consider it or not. I do, however, think it's your best option. As I said, you are probably not the first person to whom this has happened.

As for its being the weekend, did you really think that you were going to get this resolved today?

"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."
