I'm going to be hitting the books around U of T's St. George campus this Saturday. Coffee, sunshine, quiet corner in the library... What bliss!
Let's get our study hats on and party (quietly).
Stuart, not sure of your availability but lunch is to be had at some point in the day...
Cheers,
Sandra

Can someone bring a digital camera to this event? I'd love to capture some pics from these meet ups.
Also, Stuart needs a profile pic!

Apart from Stuart, is anyone else available on Sunday (tomorrow)?
Come on people! Where is your motivation! It's kind of like, y'all don't deserve to get into b-school...
Did I just go there? Yes, I did.

Dear GMAT Diary,
Got went through several rounds of SC material today and, to my horror, discovered that I have forgotton once well-known rules and strategies. Worst of all, I am stumbling through idioms, which I used to know pat. Ugh.
Wish those potential study buddies had been at the library to pull me away from the concrete wall, which now bears some oily patches from my forehead.
Will I be able to gain that lofty 700+ mark on my test? Only time and hard work will tell...
Yours truly,
Sandra

You guys have been planning this meet from the 14th of June, it has been more than a month and a half, I am beginning to think the whole thing is just a prank. The question is who is the one playing the prank and on whom
:. I am beginning to feel bad for Sandra, the stress of planning the whole thing has started showing, she now believes BTG is her GMAT Diary

I think we just need to pick a day and time and place and as many people as can attend will do so.
How's Thursday at lunchtime?

I will be there on Thursday! Just name the place and time.
I will initiate - how about noon with a meet-up point at the Second Cup, next to Kaplan's offices. Ah?
@Gabriel: HAHA! But you know... I oughta admit I was crazy long before I even started this arduous GMAT journey. 8)

Not a problem! I just picked Second Cup as a good place for me to chill and wait while people collect. From there on, we could move to a more "foodie" type of area.Stuart Kovinsky wrote: Sure - although I"m gonna be hungry too! I'm working starting at 1pm.
Sooo.. Is it just Stuart and me for tomorrow then? Anyone else in Toronto studying GMAT?
Those better not be crickets chirping..
Sandra
P.S. I will at Second Cup around 11:45.

Sandra and I met for coffee and a GMAT chat - no one else showed up!
I'm sure we could arrange another meeting.
