Thanks to all you amazing guys - without this community 700 would have been much much harder!!

Things that i did differnt the second time around - I was far more calm and cool! I finished both sections with 5 minutes to spare! As you can see, my verbal score improved a bit, though my quant is pretty disappointing!

Thankfully no molecular biology, but a 95 line enzyme and microscope passage with 5 questions!! quant was suprisingly easy - I never thought I could say that quant could be easy - but it was. thats another story why i scored a mere 46!!

but overall, this has been a pretty draining journey....lot of low moments..but thats when this club and all my wonderful friends here have cheered me up!

My special thanks to Paul for all his amazing explanations...in fact i tracked down paul's posts and studied them. My special thanks to HongHu for the sticky and his thoughful words. My special thanks to Laxie for being such a cool quant master - you are truly inspiring!

I was just wondering if your composite score was 700 even. Comparing your score to some others I thought 46Q and 41V would be a 710 or 720. Not trying to be nit picky, but just want to make sure you get the score you deserve.
