Retrevie essays from GMAC?
I was curious if an expert or someone who knows for sure could comment if it's possible to retrieve your essays from the GMAC? I did well on mine and my mom is an English teacher who would like to see my score.

Nah there's nothing you can do. Everyone has a reason they didn't do as well on the GMAT as they would have liked. Some are test-center related, some are time related (demanding job). Some are because they were last picked in kickball as a kid. At the end of the day you get what you get. I was in a ...

Yeah this GMAT is a struggle, I posted a review of my GMAT experience as well, just finished up! That's a great effort, way to pick yourself back up off the floor after a bad test and continue to fight!

Thanks guys, wait -- applications..? I thought the whole reason to rip 6.0's on the essays was so you could sub-contract out your applications to company's that specialize in writing them, and the schools can't question them because you lean off your 6.0s?? Hahah, jk. Yeah the would + verb root is b...

Dude I am in the exact same boat, I have taken it twice now with a 590 and then a shocking 580. After a month more of brutal punishing studying. I have been routinely scoring in the mid 600s and occasionally higher. My last 3 verbal sections in particular were in the 85-95 percentile range yet I sco...

6.0 essay on 1st try -- contemplating SKIP on 2nd..
Hey friends. I was fortunate to achieve a 6.0 on my 1st effort on GMAT essays but faltered on the Math and Verbal sections and scored lower than I was capable of.
