A 710 is by no means weak :) But thanks. I wanted 750+ and I got it. It was quite aligned with my practice scores. Throughout the test I had a nagging feeling I was doing badly. Guess that's how the GMAT tricks you.

Whiplash, congrats!!!
I am really happy that you got 750+, something that you were aiming for. So you're on the right track for the 2+2, here's wishing you all the best for the app.!

I guess you could take a well-deserved break now and enjoy NYE :).

I think everyone will agree with me that your GMAT preparation was probably one of the most beneficial for GC because of the Bang, Bang CR and SC!!!

I didn't really prepare much for idioms because I was fairly aware of the ones tested on the GMAT.

Hey Whip...must say...very nicely written and inspirational for GMAT takers. I just read a book 'Blink'...The author says when you love some task and do it again and again then it starts filling in your unconscious-database and finally you develop intuition for that task...The same goes for your GMAT preparation...I think.

Thank you for what you've shared. You are an inspiration, and you helped to remind me that the GMAT is just a test and you can beat it as long as you know how to go about it!

Congrats on your score!

Shr30: I wish I'd worked for six months. I was in touch with the GMAT the entire time through GMAT Club but focusing on the GMAT with school work is very, very hard. I put in approximately 1.5-2 months of focused work but not at a stretch :).
