It presents long-range assessment opportunities as well. While content and question types will not change in the near term, the conversion of the GMAT to computer delivery will make it possible over the longer term to introduce innovative question types. Questions that address cognitive areas beyond verbal and quantitative reasoning, as well as those that assess leadership and listening skills, for example, can be administered in the computerized testing environment. Beginning October 1997, the GMAT CAT will offered three weeks per month, six days per w throughout the year at one of approximately 40 computer-based testing centers in North America many other parts of the world. Candidates outside the United States and Canada call one of 12 regional registration centers world-wide.
Candidates can schedule their test within a few of actually taking it.
However, they should consider admission deadlines and call early to maximize chances of securing their preferred test date at the center most convenient to them. If examinees reschedule fewer than seven days in advance, they must pay the full fee for the new appointment. If they cancel fewer than seven days in advance or do not show up for their appointment, no refund will be given. Examinees may take the GMAT CAT once each month. At the beginning of the CAT, examinees are presented with questions of moderate difficulty.
