Well its about time I asked a question in this section 
.
I was wondering about how long can a GMAT score be used. I am right now studying for my Masters in UK, I intend to work for some more years and get some international experience and also complete my CFA, FRM before I apply for my MBA (I have been also thinking about a PhD). I was thinking about giving my GMAT early next year (2010) after my Masters. I have already given the GMAT once and have a score of 730 but that was 2 years back and it will not be valid by the time I apply for my MBA/PhD and hence I want to give it again before my maths skills get rusty.
So if I do give my GMAT early next year would the top schools in US still accept it 4 years down the line or would they insist on me giving the GMAT again. I know that officially the GMAT is valid for 5 years but have heard from different sources that top schools prefer that the GMAT not be older than 2 years, is this true ?. Should I go ahead with this plan or would it be advisable to wait and attempt it a little later.
