This is not a debrief. I still have not scored my target score but I got the urge to share the experience of most of the people who took the decision to take GMAT and who just got themselves on this beautiful roller coaster ride. This is through a letter to the 22-year old myself who decided to take GMAT in February 2019.
Dear Amrita,
You have come a long way in your career, and you have a long way to go further. You have just taken a beautiful decision to take the GMAT. And you have already ordered OGs from Amazon. You are considering GMAT only one small step to your goal of getting into that top business school. Trust me, this is going to be your 2.5 year-long step. I hope it’s not more than that. It’s a journey where every time you will fail only to win once in the end. It is the journey to not only win in the end but also learn those life skills- discipline and not quitting. There will be times when you will burn out by studying and studying and studying just to see no improvement in your scores. There will be times when you will want to give up. There will be times where you will be underestimating yourself. You will start hating yourself because you couldn’t have a study session one day. There will be many times when you will be overwhelmed with the resources and knowledge out there. There will be times when you will be making huge payments in dollars for classes, resources, mocks, tests, etc. There will be times where you will be jealous of people succeeding before you on this journey. There will be times when you will want to start from scratch because you will doubt your way of studying. There will be disappointments after the majority of the mocks.
And so will be disappointments in life. Everyone has. GMAT is not an exam but a journey- a journey to teach you to get up again when you fall. It’s a journey to teach you to never give up until you get that score for which you started your journey. It’s a journey to help make your dream of getting into that top business school a reality. Never underestimate yourself. You will get there. Take help wherever you can, but more than that, trust your skills. And trust the GMAT. It doesn’t want to punish you but to help you to get what you aim for and to help you what you need to become. You have made a beautiful decision even to start this journey. And trust me, you will rock it.
In the end, all this hustle will be worth it.
Your forever supporter,
24-year-old Amrita

I am rooting for ya, girl! 
It will get extremely overwhelming, but you will get there. You got to believe yourself. That's all there is.
