Finally Count-Down Starts for GMAT

ok. So I have shown inside my brain in my previous post. And guess what! My GMAT is less than 10 days away. To tell you the truth, I am getting calmer than before. Maybe I am getting to that 'zen' stage.

It's kind of embarrassing to say but I haven't actually finished OG 11th ed yet. It should be done today. Then I will start reviewing OG Verval Review that I finished some time ago.

So far I have done 4 CAT practice tests with one paper test (from Kaplan). Except for the paper test, all CAT's been under 700. (Kaplan paper was 740, which I liked. -_-b <== thum's up)

So from today till my exam day, I am only working for 2 days. Coming Monday is a holiday and taking Thur. and Fri. off to meditate and to stay focused.

Just for info I have been using the following study materials

Kaplan GMAT Premier 2006-2007
Kaplan GMAT 800 2006-2007
Princeton Review 2006-2007
Manhattan GMAT RC and CR
Manhattan GMAT SC
OG GMAT Review 11ed
OG GMAT Verbal Review

Even though I have mainly focused on my verbal, I am still not confident. But I know that up to certain level, confidence feeds itself. I will do as much as I can till the day before exam and then I just do my best on the exam day. Even if I want to avoid taking the exam again, if I have to, I can take it again. Anyways, back to studying on this very nice Saturday afternoon.

Hi There !

First of all, thanks for locating me (a fellow Structural Engineer) applying to B-School. I want to know whether you are applying to B-School to get ahead in the Construction industry or to change careers into something else.

Best wishes for your GMAT. People I know who scored 700+ on the Kaplan CATs ended up getting close to 800 on the real deal. Now, did that cheer you up ?
