There was someone here shooting for an 800... he was talking about his study log etc.
I'm browsing the forums after a while, can't find the thread and just wondering what happened! Did he make it?!

Here's his journal: startupaddict-s-gmat-journal-50524.html

I don't think he made it... well, you'll see...

I also have a 800 thread going though that has become more of a farce than an actual attempt at 800. i'm basically trying to get above a 700 now 8-)

I think he's actually referring to this, more recent, thread: hades-peril-78922.html

What's funny is I was actually looking for your thread :-D
I'd been following along while I was studying for the gmat. Some of the things you mention - like not studying for weeks and taking vacations - was very familiar to me.
Hope it's going well.

The other thread was very entertaining tho! I don't believe it however. :roll:
It seems like a hoax. Either that or he is very insecure even about his great score. The whole diarrhea and hangover is not believable... No one would be allowed to continue the exam!
But maybe that is what the intention was and I just missed the joke?
