If anyone else out there feels like a failure for not being able to crack the GMAT, well, you’re not alone. Today I sat for my first (and only GMAT attempt) and scored a painful 485 - never have I scored this low in a mock.
I started my prep in early November with a mock where I scored a 540 cold, and have never been able to score above that. The deadline for the MiM I wanted to apply to is May 2nd and, albeit I already planned on retaking the GMAT on April 29th as a last resort, I now know I have zero chances to get to my target 615.
I have completed all of the quant chapters on TTP, watched all of GMAT ninja’s videos, and had some practice with the OG, but despite having a 4.0 GPA and having always been a brilliant student, I’m afraid I’ll have to accept defeat, failure and shame for not getting into my dream school because I couldn’t do the GMAT (gotten into Imperial but I feel very bittersweet about it). Hopefully it wasn’t meant to be and the future will still hold lots of victories and success. I guess my GMAT story is over for now.
