thanks chris. after taking in the real shocker, im just coming back to my senses.
i actually have purchased the manhattan sc. i been through the OGG11, V,Q guides multiple times over the past few months. i had improved my sc skills manyfold since the last time i took the test(july 2006). i scored well above the 700s in the powerprep and the gmatprep tests. im begining to fear those verbal(esp) were too inflated as many of those reappeared from the OG guides and 1000sc guides.
on the actual test i could sense my not so good performance on verbal. it was just a feeling. i spent a little too much time on the first few questions during the verbal section. my confidence level dropped after this. i got jittery knowing that i may not have time for the remaining questions. after that i answer most of the verbal questions i believe with 70% accuracy approx.
i was so close to cancelling my scores. i really wanted my 2nd time around to be the last shot. i dont know what happened. i hv a background in engineering with 3yrs work ex. engineering was a cake walk compared to this.
looks like i have to take it another time to have a decent shot any top school. not sure when that next shot should be? or what else i should be covering?
any thoughts and ideas would be greatly appreciated.
