Wow, that's terrible.
Now that I think of it, I was cut off about 20 seconds before the end of the first AWA essay. It wasn't a big deal, because I was already done and just proofreading.

I kinda beat the GMAT - 710 first attempt
Just took the GMAT today for the first time, and scored a 710 (Q45/V42). I'm a little disappointed in my Quant score, and I feel like I could have done better. Here's the after-action report on things I think I could have handled better. 1. Nerves: I was FREAKING OUT, MAN! I seriously can't remember...
