Thanks everybody for your supports and for your congratulations!

I feel like giving another suggestion to the people still studying and struggling against the GMAT: no wonder how important this test is (and we know it is quite important!), do not let it become an obsession or take over your life! I probably may have studied in 2-3 months what I studied in 5 months, but in no case I renounced to have a decent and normal life: going out with my wife and family, watching movies at night, etc... These things are too important for me to relinquish for a test, and also: letting the test take control of your life is counterproductive in the end, so it's really no use! :)

I already know I will have to sacrifice most of my free time during my 2 MBA years, but the GMAT, honestly, is not worth that! :)

Have fun!!
