If I do not show up to a GMAT appointment and I was unable to reschedule or cancel before hand, does the 31 day penalty to take test apply or can I schedule it a day or two later?

I acknowledge that you have to pay another $250.

I am worried at the moment because I have an application deadline and would like a definitive answer to this question.

I appreciate your time.

Hey there,

You're in luck! If you miss your exam, you can reschedule the test for any time and are not subject to the 31 day restriction.

Good luck!

I wholeheartedly agree with Bavik. :)

No worries you can retake the exam. Here is the GMAT's official retake policy: https://www.mba.com/the-gmat/schedule-a- ... -test.aspx.
