So I just scheduled my test even though I didn't want to. My initial plan was to take the exam after I had hit the score I wanted to on two consecutive practice exams, but I just found out that I got accepted to this pre MBA program and the program requires that all participants have a score no later than Feb 1. Since my initial plan was to save the Official Guide for right before I took the test, I haven't gone through it. For those that have taken the exam, do you feel that it would be sufficient to only go through the last 50-100 questions in each section since those should be the harder questions, or are the difficult questions spread out in no particular order?
