Since Fall intake starts in August - September, applicants must aim to appear for GMAT max to max by June. The reason being, the applicants who wish to retake GMAT have to give it after 16 days cooling time. Plus, not more than five attempts in a year are applicable. Thus, applicants can get some time to prepare in between after their first attempt in June and re-appear for GMAT and get scores that are desirable. Hence, it is advised to take GMAT for Fall 2025 in early June.
