Hi vivek,
I understand your test anxiety. My advice would be to just stop getting obsessed with the exam. This really increases your level of anxiety. Try doing something that would divert your mind from obsession.
All you have to do is just review flashcards, get some good sleep, work out in gym tomorrow (not rigorously), and start for the exam.
Waiting to hear good score from you! Good luck..
10 Day POA to GMAT...reviews and suggestions invited

Hi Vivek,
All the Best Mate.
This Monday, I took GMATPrep # 2 and quite disappointingly got 620 (Q46, V30). Q46 and my Quant ego seems to have taken a beating here. I studied for 4 hours on Monday morning on Number properties and sentence correction. Then left for office and took GMATprep # 2 @ office. Not a smart decision considering that I would have to attend a client meeting very soon after the test. Just another 24 more days to go I need to step up my intensity a little bit...

Heyyy...thanks Papgust and Sreak!!
Don't worry Sri...it will come back...just keep the tempo and don't lose your head
Remember...you have already worked on it a lot...you just have to brush it up and you will be back on track
Follow a good training regime and your mind will be tamed to score consistently good
Thanks every one...
I hope I will come back tomorrow with a happy story (fingers crossed)
Cheers,
Vivek
