Hi guys..
my first attempt got me a score of 470. i was devastated because i was scoring better in practise tests. but yesterday, my score was 550, Q(43) V(23). From what i have planned, i am looking for at least a score of 600 to get into the school that i want. I hold a bachelors degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering and Masters in Energy Engineering. I plan to pursue Msc in Finance. I just hope this time i reach past 600. I have gone through all of the Manhattan Guides and OG11 and 12.
In my recent exam, I almost ran out of time on last 4 questions and had to make educated guess, but then finally managed to get last 2 questions right. I don't know what happened in Verbal. Maybe because i gave more attention to quant in my prep that i didn't do well in Verbal. And another thing, i ran out of time on the last question in verbal and ended up not attempting it.
In my first attempt, i was so tensed that i froze in my seat for many questions, panicked over not understanding quant questions and finally screwed it. This time my nerves was far in peace and i panicked only when i realized i am not going fast enough. But i took all the breaks and went to restroom and calmed myself.
I really want to do better.
this month, i am planning to do lot of tests and practise questions, zoom in and check out my weaknesses in verbal and work out on that because I am still fresh on my last prep. My next exam is scheduled on April 3rd.
Any suggestions, confidence boost, opinions, anything would help me now as I am really feeling like a failure.
