Really Odd question [#permalink] New post   05 Jun 2005, 03:13
Hi guys,
I'm studying for the GMAT because it is one of the requirements for a scholarship, and I'm required at least a 650 to enter the ranking. That said, the AWA are absolutely not considered by the commission...

Do you think it would be better if I skip the AWAs, in order not to be drained for the Verbal Section?

No u can't ! If u do u will not get any score (atleast official). U will atleast have to write something in there, u can't leave it blank.

They are a part of the test and 90% or more would have loved to skip it IF it were optional. And it is a good practice to write the AWA section when you do your practice tests too...It would build your stamina .

I'd say, write it in a relaxed manner. Since one of AWA is an argument, it's going to warm you up for the verbal session.

Thanks guys for your inputs...I still believe I am not gonna study templates for AWAs, I don't care about them, but since I'm forced to write something in them, probably I'll write something like "today the weather is good"!
