How to Proctor a GMAT Focus Edition Exam Online

GMAC allows the real GMAT Focus Edition to be taken online -- the GMAT Online exam runs the full 2-hour-15-minute format with one optional 10-minute break after Section 1 or 2, preceded by roughly a 10-minute security check that includes a 360-degree room scan. That covers the official test. MBA prep programs use Neuroxa to run full-length GMAT Focus mock exams that replicate the same timing and break structure, since the security-check step is exactly where students try to swap in unauthorized notes before the clock starts.
