Hi i wrote my GMAT few days back .. Wen i went to the center to write the exam,I was shocked hearing that nothing printed thing is allowed inside even if its a tattoo.I have a (TEXT)tattoo on my write hand and the test center head says we cant allow u without reporting..If its the case GMAC should keep that in the guild lines of GMAT while booking the exam rather than informing such things at the exam center.

Wow, I wasn't aware of this rule.
You might want to post this in the Ask the Test Maker forum.


Edit: I just noticed that you already posted it there. Your advice is very useful since a LOT of people have tattoos these days.

Cheers,
Brent

Damn, I too have text tattoo on my arm. Was there any kind of delay in your exam due to this issue?
I'm no expert, just trying to work on my skills. If I've made any mistakes please bear with me.

No . There wasnt any delay .. but they wanted to report the issue to GMAC,there wasnt any delay.. I got tensed listening to all those stuff that too in the exam hall.
