GMAT 8 Times Lifetime Limit

This is big news that was announced last month on the official website of the GMAT:
“Candidates can't exceed five GMAT exams within a 12-month period or the eight lifetime GMAT exams (lifetime limit updated November 2016).”

There was previously no lifetime limit.  Now there is.  I guess this means that GMAT prep instructors will not be able to keep on taking GMAT.   Most applicants never take it 5 times let alone 8 times. However, if someone applies for MBA programs and the comes back to it a few years later, they could easily take GMAT 8 times. Fortunately, there is the GRE!
