The Coronavirus has impacted countless lives, both personally and professionally. Many businesses, restaurants and other venues have closed as a means to slow the spread of the virus - and that has included the test centers around the world that host the GMAT and GRE.

As information on all of these issues has become available over the last several months, there have been a number of rumors about how both testing and applications might proceed during 2020. Recently, we've received word from GMAC and ETS about how testing will proceed in the short term, so you can still plan to take your exam(s) albeit in a way that you did not necessarily plan for.

Both the GMAT and the GRE will soon be administered from the convenience of your home. While there are still details to be worked out regarding the parameters of these events, you can learn more about the process at the following websites:

GMAC and ETS recently began their "take at home" versions of the GMAT and GRE, respectively. These exams do not allow for the use of the traditional white erase boards and pens; you will need to use a specific digital whiteboard app on your computer. For prep purposes, the following free online options can help to simulate how you will end up working when you take the GMAT/GRE.
