Prep
1) Took Kaplan basic course in May '07, but did not really end up using any of the materials or practice tests
2) Studied Official GMAT book over three weeks prior to the test, did all the problem solving and half the data sufficiency. Did not do any verbal problems.
3) Took the the first three retired paper tests during the week before the test: 710, 710, 720
4) Took the downloadable practice CATs three and two days before: 680, 720
On the day of the test (11/28), I spent 2 minutes staring at the last verbal question deciding between two final options and actually ran out of time on it (yeah, I'm an idiot).
44Q=79th percentile
