GMAT Knight student tip:

7. If you're doing GMAT Online, take it on the time you are the most focused; in my case, since I am a night owl, I took it around 7.30 p.m.; this is one advantage that you can't get from a test center

GMAT Knight student tip:

Something I do to maximize the utility of spent OG questions is to put myself into the shoes of the GMAC psychometrics team. If I can explain why each option might be enticing, I put myself in a better place to spot common pitfalls. This helped me a ton on DS and CR questions.
