So, I'll be honest... I am getting stressed out thinking about this exam, and it's 3 weeks away. I know if I let this fear take control, my stress will take over and I'll be a terrible mess of nerves on my 3rd attempt. It's because I really want this score. I have sacrificed over 1.5 years of my life, on and off, in the GMAT world so in my mind, the stakes are high. However, thinking this way isn't going to help me, so I'm writing down a few things I'll be doing to be targeted and strategic in my approach:
GMAT Girl's Guide to the next 3 weeks of her life:
- Cultivate positive, can-do attitude. Don't have any self doubts and think about everything I could have done better in my prep. Think about what I have done and how important it is for me to keep that energy and spirit up.
- I'm tired of studying. But... FIGHT with myself to get up and be consistent in studying. I'm a GMAT solider for the next 3 weeks... don't get lazy, but at the same time...
- Take time to celebrate my daily GMAT achievements going into this exam
- Focus on reviewing theory
- Forget feeling guilty about all the friends I've lost touch with ... this is your life right now and the rewards will come if you work hard NOW!
In other news... I took MGMAT Cat #3 today. Got a 630 (Q 44, V 32).
I'm really disappointed in my Verbal score because that's the same score I've been hovering around and I have no idea what I need to do to improve! As for Quant score... it's still an area that I'm determined to keep practicing in, as it's not my natural strength.
More updates will come regularly in the next 3 weeks.
