Primary answer
Under the current GMAT Focus Edition rules, you can view your unofficial scores (Total and Sectional) immediately after finishing the exam. If you are unsatisfied, you have up to 72 hours after the exam to cancel your score online for a fee of USD 25. If you change your mind later, you can reinstate a canceled score at any point during its 5-year validity for a fee of USD 50. Most importantly, 'C' (canceled) markers no longer appear on score reports sent to schools, so universities will never know if you previously canceled a score.
