Because of this Pandemic students are not able to give the GMAT exam. For the convenience of the students around the globe, GMAT has been shifted online, so that it does not affect the admissions process. We interviewed Stacey Koprince (GMAT Score - 740/ 800) from Manhattan Prep to share her experience of taking the GMAT test at home. Here are some tips she shared with us,

1. Technology Requirements -  You can take the exam on a Mac or PC, but a tablet or a stylus are not allowed. You’ll need a webcam with speaker audio; you can’t use a headset or earbuds. Any other external devices are not allowed.

2. Internet Connection - Make sure you have a strong internet connection. Disruption or glitches will lead you to loose time, however in case there is a glitch the proctor will ask you to show your surrounding and you can resume your exam from where you have left it.

3. Surrounding - You’ll have to make sure that you’re alone in a room. Software will be listening for any sounds that might indicate that someone is there in the room apart from you. If they detect anything, they may ask you to show your surrounding to prove that nobody is in the room with you.

4. Proctor Interaction - If you have any issue during the exam, you can talk or chat to your proctor at any time. The proctor will try to resolve any query.

5. Virtual Whiteboard - GMAC isn’t allowing us to use physical scratch paper. you have to use an online whiteboard tool during the test. There are online tools which provide an exact replica of this virtual whiteboard on which you can practice before the exam. Manhattan Prep is one website that provides with a virtual whiteboard tool for free.
