Once bitten, twice shy?

by abogdanovsky » Mon Sep 19, 2011 6:52 am
Scored a 500 on a mock when I started 2 months ago. 60 days of pretty solid revision saw a consistent 680-710 on the official mocks and the Manhattan ones in the last 10 days.

Today, the GMAT beat me. I scored a miserable 650, with a horrible 30something in Quant.

Once bitten, twice shy? No! In exactly 32 calendar days, I will go back to that dark smelly room in Holborn and I will stuff my size 11 Prada loafer so far up the GMAT's backside that it wont even be funny.

The GMAT will be the one that will be 4x shy!

This was very liberating, and will now provide me with a lot more motivation to get the job done.

Good luck to all of you who are studying and nailing that beast.
