Choosing between GMAT online and in-person depends on your comfort with test conditions, tools, and setup.
The online GMAT is convenient if you’re confident in your home setup and prefer avoiding travel. But keep in mind, you’ll use an online whiteboard or physical scratchpad—which feels different from the laminated notepad you get at test centers. If your problem-solving style relies on heavy diagramming or note-taking, that might be a big factor.
In-person GMAT gives a controlled environment and fewer chances of tech issues. You’ll also use the standard scratchpad, which many test-takers find faster for Quant.
If you're easily distracted or don’t trust your internet connection, go in person. But if you like testing in your own space and don’t mind using a mouse for notes, online works fine.
