Test Day-
Had a slightly heavy breakfast to make sure that i dont feel hungry during the marathon exam. There it goes, my gmat adventure began.....Surprisingly, I easily spotted the centre despite the change in location and so . . . . huh! Reached the centre very early.This was one of the most irritating experience as they dint let me into the hall and so had to wait outside for more than 20 mins --- Tensed ,,,,,, Excited ,,,,,,, Frustrated ,,,,,, --- waiting desperately for THE GMAT Experience.
Ahh! Finally they let me in and asked for my ID proof .I gave them and sat in the waiting room with a million thoughts creeping into my mind . Though I tried to stay calm and cool but trust me ... practically thats tough. No...Not Again!! The centre co-ordinator walked upto me and said "Sir ,there is an issue with your name in the id proof".I was frustrated with myself and about the way things were going on till then, after a brief argument I convinced him and atlast Im ready to take the test. hoping that things don,t worsen from here on..
AWA
The test began and I was asked to choose the colleges to which I intend to report my scores. As I already shortlisted these I moved on very quickly to the next section - AWA. In this section I strictly decided that m not going to try and do something xtraordinary but juss try to give them wa t they are lukin in a good essay. One hour of this section passed as though it were a couple of mins.......
Kwel!!!! I am satisfying with my writing and went to take a break - Just drank some water -
MATH
All set to rock my favourite section. First few Qs were tough and tougher question kept rolling on till on point whr I was stuck ....... So long that that I lost track of time, then realized it and started to hurry .Inspite of this , I was still out of time . While I was struggling to solve the questions as fast as possible , I had an inner feeling that Im losing on my strongest section.HUH!!! alas dint read the last Q *****TIME OUT****.
----------Totally dejected and disappointed I desperately need a break. I went out ---------------
Drank Water - Sat thinkin about my dismal performance in Math -cursing myself. GOSH!!!WAT HAVE I DONE!!!
"EXCUSE ME ! , U R LATE FOR UR NEXT SECTION"GMAT Co-ordinator
WAT!! I was shell shocked, frustrated tht there was no clock in the waiting room, I was helpless and knew tht I ruined my test.
VA
Finally, got into the hall started Verbal Section , dint have the guts to luk at the timer ,but had to, it said '71:23' . I gave up all I wanted is to finish this test and go home ; I knew Im coming back here again. First few Qs were easy .. most of them were easy I started answering fast .. I knew I totally messed up so I was getting all easy ones. Last question 3 mins left .. finished answering it in 1 min and I was done with the test 2 mins with 2 mins to spare.
There was some personal information etc .. I was in no mood for all that and so reached the last page .
