I am doing it again! [#permalink] New post   09 Jun 2008, 08:33
So I finally re-registered for my second attempt to crack the GMAT. September 6th it is ... this is going to be interesting given that summer time is about the only nice time to be in Toronto.

I have tons of family coming to see us - given that this my folks last couple of months in Toronto. To add to the confusion, I have more social commitments than I care to list.

All great recipes for a poor second attempt but maybe I will suprise myself.

Schedule GMAT prep like a part-time job. Once you have it scheduled, stick to it like you'll get fired if you don't show up and do the studying ;)

I have tried to do that but that will require for me to wake up at 5 am everyday. Something I have never successfully done before for a stretch of time. But as I said I may surprise myself.

thanks for idea

Hey good luck for your retake, I am trying to think of a suitable date for my retake and well I am going to London in July to study a course in finance that should take up 200% of my time. Then I return and need to study for the GMAT before the October deadline and my job usually makes things worse with crazy shifs. So all in all you dont have it too bad, give it your best shot. U have already faced the monster!!
