Has anyone taken the GRE or GMAT recently with it being remote? Curious on the procures taken now

I’ve looked into this, and decided to pass on taking the GMAT online. Pro: it’s cheaper and no essay section. The biggest limitation is that scratch paper is not allowed, and instead they provide a virtual program to use much like MS paint. As the biggest hurdle for me on quant is the time constraint, I just can’t see getting a good score without being able to physically write out my thinking.

For the GRE, you are allowed physical scratch paper, I believe a whiteboard? But I had not studied for the GRE which is why I’m not taking this one.

I will add to what K1 said about the GMAT. Online GMAT is a separate report from the normal one. So, you don’t have to ever send it to schools if you don’t like the score. For that reason, I’m going to take a swing at it in June in case i get lucky and hit my mark. Otherwise, I’ll take it in person later and schools will never know I took it online

I wonder if there will be an inflation to scores this year... can not help but to think some will find ways to false authentic
