GMAT aftermath

first off, sorry for the delay in this post-GMAT entry. after the exam last monday, i decided to take a break from all things MBA related... including my blog. it was a good rest for a full week, but now i'm ready to get the ball rolling again.

so, in terms of my GMAT, i did.... pretty average [Q49 / V36 / AWA 5.5 = 700(92%)]. [edit] ok, it was above average, but i couldn't help but be a little disappointed in myself as i was hoping to score a lot better. all of my practice exams were in the mid-700 range, but i only barely broke the 700 mark. hence i made the decision to take the exam again in a couple months. 700 is an acceptable score, but not quite what i was aiming for. so, it's back to the books, the reading, the studying all over again. since the verbal section is what killed me, i need to go back and make sure that i perfect all the SC rules, and fully understand the CR and the RC like the back of my hand.

it's kind of a bummer to think about studying for the GMAT again. but on a positive note, i'm very thankful that i actually have another chance to get this right early on in the application process. =)

here's to another few months of studying!!
