Hi Guys,
I just gave my GMAT today noon and got a 710.It was good assuming this score would make me eligible to apply to most of the good B-schools in India(we have only one over here that considers the GMAT score) and abroad.

Anyway,thats not important right now.Whats more important is I need to thank everyone on this Forum who has helped me in one way or the other in achieving my goal.I would honestly thank Ron for his critically analyzed SC funda,Ian Stewart similarly for Quant and finally Dana,who has been more of a pshychological support,guiding me all through whenever i needed her help.Though I have not been posting actively on this forum,I was a regular visitor who has gained ample amount of knowledge from here.

I would be posting my debrief in some days as today I have pack up for my vacation tomorrow at my native place and I have catch a flight in the morning at 5:00 am.

Anyway,what happened at the Test center is a story to narrate.I arrived at my test center an hour early at 12:00 pm,I had my exam at 1:00 pm.Luckily,and by God's grace I got system 6,6 being my lucky number.And I had taken Gatorade-"Blue Bolt" flavored and some chocolates with me.I fed myself with the gatorade and "MARS" and during the second break though I came out and peed once,I felt an unstopping urge to go back to the loo again and this time the pee wouldn't stop!!!.....Gosh it ate 1 min 37 secs into my Verbal time....Ha Ha!!!

All is well that ends well!!!

Thanks & Best Regards,
Himanshu.
