GMAT Day: Update!

Dec 14, 2010... GMAT Girl's 3rd attempt at the GMAT after a disastrous first 2 attempts.

Result?

630 (Q41, V35)

And as far as I'm concerned - I've beaten the GMAT, coming in at the 73rd percentile. It's definitely not a 700 or anywhere close to a 680, but, given my journey from 520, to 490 and now a 140 point improvement to 630, I'm VERY happy with my score and my efforts, and SO GLAD to be done with this stage of my life - the stage that involved lots of intense study and sacrifice.

What next? Applications here I come!

(But not before taking a few days of well deserved rest and experiencing the novelty of coming home and NOT having to study or feel guilty for not studying!)

Thanks for reading :)

10 more days to go

Just a quick post to let everyone know that, yes,  I'm still here and studying away. I do feel like I'm burning out, but feel that there's still so much material to cover in verbal (mostly SC theory) as CR and RC is a matter of practice and analysis I feel.

10 more days to go so I better get back to it! Will update soon with more progress updates.

Tomorrow is my last day with my tutor, so focusing on quant study for the rest of today, to ensure I get any questions answered by tomorrow.

Wish me luck!
