How to Save Money on GMAT Exam Fees?

When I first heard about the possibility of taking an online GMAT exam, I was very skeptical about the costs involved. After all, how much can I save when I hire a professional to do my GMAT test instead of doing it myself? The first website that I found that offered the costs of taking the GMAT online was definitely expensive. It cost almost $300 in Indian Rupees, or about $39 US.

However, I decided to give it a try, as I had been wanting to take the GMAT since high school. My parents had encouraged me to go for the exam so I could get a better job. I planned to take the exam in my local center, but the costs there were just too expensive! Plus, the driving and living expenses for two weeks were just too much. But I did finally decide to take my GMAT and I am very happy that I did.

To begin with, I did find that local centers charge a lot for the testing materials. Usually, the test materials include books, test papers and a test guide. Then you pay for the actual test. So, it can turn out to be more costly than just paying for a book and exam guide on the Internet.

Another problem is that many local centers only offer a few questions. They do not offer a full test or practice exams. This means that you may not even know what questions to expect on the day of the exam. Then there is also the cost of paper and printing the tests. I found that it was actually cheaper to take the test at my local center because they provided all of the materials for free and the test was much easier than taking them online.

The third problem is that sometimes there are registration fees and entrance fees which are separate from the actual examination costs. If these fees are not paid then the test provider can raise your fees without warning. I do not know about other countries, but in India the GMAT registration fees can range from a few hundred dollars to a few thousand dollars. In any case, it is definitely more expensive to take the exam at a local center. So, that makes sense too.

Then you have the cost of hiring a pro for the entire duration of the test duration. Again, this is going to be different depending on the center. You can end up paying over $1000 for a test!

My last point is that sometimes the GMAT test is conducted by various exam boards. There are several in India. So you will need to find the local center that is offering the exam fees in Indian Rupees. There are websites which will help you with this. Once you find one, you just need to enter the test date, address and the fees you want. After that, you can pay through PayPal or a credit card.

If you do not have time to spare on finding local centers for the GMAT test, then you should consider taking the test online. This will allow you to manage your time and prepare efficiently. If you plan well in advance, then this also means that you can save some money as well. So, spend some time searching for the local centers for the exams. Then you should get all the details from the local center.

Keep in mind that the test fees offered by different schools may vary. So, it is better that you compare them so that you get the best deal. This is why it is advisable that you do some research work before you select the school for the GMAT test. You can visit their websites and get the test fees in Indian Rupees. This will help you make your final decision.

Now, you might be wondering where you should find the test fees in Indian Rupees. Well, here is a tip for you. The local centers usually have a separate section where they display the rates of different colleges. You just need to select the college that is offering the better rate for the GMAT test fees in Indian Rupees. Then you can select the local center from there.

So, these are some of the ways in which you can save money on GMAT test fees in Indian Rupees. If you are unable to manage your time well and are unable to focus properly on the test, then taking the GMAT mock test can help you to tune out distractions and focus more on the test. In addition to this, you can also take mock exams for a couple of months before you start your actual exam. This will give you a good enough idea about the material and the format of the test, so that you will know exactly what to expect on the day when you sit up to take the actual test. Good luck!
