1350 V:640 Q:710

Hello!

I have gained so much from the experience here so I just thought I should share my experience as well.

My exam was scheduled to be at 9am and I guess I was really nervous so I woke up at 5am. But I forced myself to go back to sleep so I woke up again at 6am. I arrived quite early at about 7.30 - 8am and there were about 6 or 7 other people taking GRE as well.

The AWA question was a question that I have read before so it was okay, the argument was okay too.

I would say that I was very nervous during Quant which probably affected my score. Quant requires you to be calm because like everyone else here is saying, the questions are tricky.

Verbal was quite alright I guess, I got 3 RCs but they were all easy to understand.

Preparation:
Quant - Nova and Barrons
Verbal - Barrons
Preparation about 3 months

Thank you for all the congrats. =) I took the Powerprep tests and my scores were higher, I think roughly about 650 Verbal and 730 Quant. I think that timing is very important as well. For verbal, I did Big Book questions within the time limit of 30 mins. For Quants, I did Nova Prep under the condition of 1 min ++ per question.

Thanks. =)
I am not sure if any of you have experienced this, I feel a bit 'lost' after the GRE is over. It's kinda like the thing that I have been working in on so hard and now it's done. Not that it's not good, but I do feel "lost".
