Hi! subramamnian,
sorry for the delayed reply. I was on a short vacation. We live in Rochester. As you said, Winona is about 45 min drive from Rochester. Just wondering if you visit this place often.
I am planning to give gmat in about 2 1/2 to 3 months from now.

cbenk,
well said about-get ready for the worst. This is the only thing that works with me. the moment I start panicking or pressure mode, my cat score gets messed up. so, I keep telling myself that I have a fall-back plan, and it helps me.

Anyone from Rochester, MN?

Just wondering if anyone is from Rochester, MN. It would be nice to join a study group. It motivates me more than studying all by myself.
