I moved my test day debriefing to the first post of the topic, so it'll be easier to read it.

Thank you. I was hoping to see 700+ in your thread yesterday. You made it. I am happy for you. My confidence would have got shattered if you haven't scored that well as I was thinking my level was almost closer to your's. I will keep my fingers crossed and keep practicing for next two weeks before I take the exam some time this month. After seeing your score, I am getting the confidence to take the test sooner. Thanks for that.

Good luck with your apps.

By the way I clocked a total of 270 hours worth of gmat preparation. It took me so much as I have been out of school for more than five years, and my skills were really rusty.

Congrats Padawan for such a good score...

I am also in the same boat, out of school for more than 5 years, and giving GMAT on Nov 2 (clocked 150-170 hours of prep). looking forward to 700+
