Do I need to select my target schools before taking the gmat or can I leave it blank and submit my gmat scores to the schools during the MBA application process

You can leave it blank but the advantage of adding them on test day is that you can send your score to 5 schools for free. After test day each report is ~$25 USD

In short, if you’re happy with your score and there’s a couple of schools you know for sure you’re going to apply to, then send on test day for the savings.

The schools will have access to the scores as long as the score is valid. My understanding is that GMAC doesn’t actually “send” the school your scores for the current application cycle. It makes your score visible to your designated schools so admissions can go and access it in a portal/database.

Schools don't actually LOOK at the scores until you submit an application. However, they may use the contact information and test score to add folks with decent scores to their lead list to promote their events.
