Retook GMATPrep Test 1 on Sunday.
760 (Q50, V42)
Though still not a great score, it made me decide a reschedule of my GMAT appointment from 19th Aug to an earlier date. I figured 6 weeks was too much time left from 760 to a final great score and that fatigue might set in leading to mess up on the test. After maniacal checking of the mba.com website for 2 days I managed to get an earlier appointment on the 4th of August albeit at a test center further away than the one before.
Of course making the decision was not easy as it is taking some risk but I feel I made the right decision as it has made me more focused on the test itself. Earlier I was going back and forth between the test and research on schools, essay strategies, etc. This left me in a position where I was neither studying in a focused way nor researching schools properly. Now I am fully focused n the GMAT and schools can wait till after 4th of August. I will have almost 2 months after the test to write my essays et al.
Here we go!
