I just wrote my GMAT.Really had a depressing time,dont know wat happend to mee.. The frst two sections wer gud ..Wen the quant section startd ..the toll i had on my mind was really horrible i was so tensed and then came the 5th question it was very tough...I Wasted 18 minutes of time for 4 questns 5 to 9 .Wen i saw the time after the 10th question .I was shocked ,had 34mins for 27 questions.. I lost the confidence and hope.That screwed my entire exam .. Icompleted the xam but dint feel like seeing the scores.. I cancelled the scores and came off ..Very depressing .. My only advise for ppl who r giving the xam is atleast write 6 practs tests befr the xam...

Very good advice.

While preparing, students should keep in mind that the GMAT is a test of your math and verbal skills AND it's a test of your test-taking skills. So, keep taking practice tests to work on your endurance and your time management skills.

Regarding time management: I suggest that you use a Milestone Chart to keep you on track. This is covered in our free GMAT time management video at https://www.gmatprepnow.com/module/gener ... es?id=1244

Cheers,
