Default can I take gmat and tofel exam in USA with a b2 visa?

Hello everyone!

I will be travelling to US with a b2 visa this October (my second visit) and I am starting to prepare for GMAT. I want to know if I will be able to take gmat and tofel exam while I am in US?

Has anyone done it before?
Any suggestions and help is welcomed!

Thank you in advance

Are you a teacher or a proctor who is allowed to give tests in the US? Will you be paid to do this?

Yes, but you don't need to be in the US to take them.

My wife is a TOEFL teacher at GMAT level at a language school. She is *not* the school's visa officer but her understanding is that it's not necessary to get an F-1 visa if one is solely taking the exams. If there's any course of study involved, then an F-1 is required.

Hello, there thank you for getting back at me.

So, do you mean I can take GMAT and TOFEL exams in US with a b2 visa?
