Beat The GMAT!

Beat The GMAT is a day-to-day blog detailing how I studied for and beat the Graduate Management Admission Test™ (GMAT). This site shall serve as a study guide for future GMAT test takers.



I seriously hate you, Prometric!!


My test has been rescheduled again for tomorrow.

Here's my situation. Prometric called me this morning telling me that my original test center was closed because of technical difficulties it was experiencing and that I had to reschedule. Accordingly, I rescheduled my test for Wednesday at a site an hour away from my home (the only thing available at such short notice). Later that day, a representative from my original test center called me to remind me that I had an exam with them tomorrow.

I was confused, so I called my original test center directly, at which time I was informed that they were experiencing no technical difficulties. So, I rescheduled my test back to my original time and place--but not without a $50 rescheduling fee!

Even though this situation was all Prometric's fault, this company refuses to waive the rescheduling fee. I'll have to write an angry letter later this week.

Die, Prometric!

Murphy's Law!

Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong. However you are too strong and determined to let something this small affect you. You have studied diligently; stay focus as many of your readers I particularly am praying for you. Regardless of the outcome you'll be a top 5 business school, you are just too determined to except anything else....

Waiting to see your next posting, one of pure happiness...

Respect,

Andrew D. Green

Hi Eric, I know you are going to do a great job at the GMAT, don´t let this little situation make you lose your focus. I´ve been thinking a lot about you and I know that you are going to do a great job =)

Eric -

All the best for your GMAT. With your level of preparation, you are bound to succeed and achieve your target score. Dont worry about the Prometric mess up, once you come out of that room with a dream score in your hands, all this will seem insignificantly small.
