"....And consider taking the test again"

That is a rude thing to say and I did not ask if I should take it again. You should be more sensitive to other people's GMAT experience.

Yes - you can have as many scratch boards if you want but I really think there should be a standard way to organize your paper so you spend for example 9 min per page for 6 questions or something. Regardless, I found during a CAT that the timing strategy above is extremely unhelpful. It just sets yo...

Should I take another practice test?

I'm really stressed and don't know what to do. I am taking the GMAT in 6 days, and have only taken 2 practice tests - my initial one before studying and again, where I did not have good time management and did poorly. I attempted to take a 3rd a few weeks ago but had a minor panic attack and wasn't ...
