You can solve this problem by installing the latest JRE from sun, and then replacing all of contents of the GMATPrep jre directory with the updated version.

I replaced the contents of the JRe directory and that error is now gone. But the app still sits forever with a message that it's loading the practice content. Has anyone gotten this to actually work in Parallels?

Thanks for the Help

Replacing the files worked for me. Thanks for this solution... it helped me get it working.
