Would one extra week make a big difference?

Hi
I am finding than now that the date of GDay is approaching I am learning more and more, especially on the quantitative section. Is it a common feeling that is never enough when it comes to time to study for the GMAT?
My date is Feb. 10, will a week make a big difference if I re-schedule the test? The later I can take it is mid Feb. so the 16th will be the new date. Am I freaking out here? Comment please?

You should go for the test. You are probably never going to feel completely ready or prepared (I certainly felt that way)--one extra week will not add value to your preparation.

Best of luck! You're at the home stretch!

A week may or may not make a big difference...it depends on how much time you can devote to it. But you still have plenty of time for February 10, so keep at it and plan on the 10th. You can accomplish a lot in the next 3 weeks.

Just keep in mind that the GMAT is just one component of your MBA application. A good score does not necessarily get you into your target school...

Just keep repeating to yourself, "it's just a little test..."

Take it easy! :)

Well, my case is different since I already have a MBA (2000) and this is for a Ph.D in Business. So basically my application depends solely upon the results of my GMAT according to the Directro of the program. So this is a different situation. I really need to do well.
