1 more day to go!!! - Nervous..

by hk » Thu Apr 30, 2009 8:05 am
Hi eveybody,

I have one more day to go before facing the beast.. Pretty nervous but have done all that i can in the past 3 months and now i'm ready to face it..
I took a GMATPrep CAT today and got a 670, I hope do perform better in the real test. These stupid careless errors are killing me!!!! I actually slapped myself in frustration while reviewing the test answers...

ANyways, before i go in i want to thank everybody in this forum for helping me with the preparation. The stories, debriefs, tips, answer explanations and discussions were invaluable to me.

Thanks a lot..

p.s. is there anything you would want to tell me before the test? :)

Don't forget to breathe,
Sleep well
Eat a good dinner
Dress in Layers
Bring everything you need, and put it near your door (like ID etc.)
And imagine yourself a superstar!

Good Luck!

- Dont forget proper ID!
- be prepared to put everything in the locker provided. This includes your wallet and watch (nothing can be in your pockets or around your wrists). If you bring a snack, place it in the locker but not in a bag
- when you check in, you should only be carrying your ID and your locker key
- don't be shy about taking the breaks
- don't drink too much in the morning if you are prone to using the bathroom
- ask if its ok to take a snack from your locker during break, just so they know your not grabbing notes


best of luck and I hope you do well!

BEST of luck!! And try to stay calm, that's the most important during the test, though it is not that easy))
