Hi

I am not prepared for gmat and my exam is in a few days. I am no way near my required GMAT score. I took one Mock test a month ago and havent taken any since then. I also did not study much due to other commitments.

What should i do. Seems the fee is wasted.

Thanks


I would say the fee is not wasted. Use this test as opportunity to be relaxed and learn about the ACTUAL GMAT.
The exam itself is an experience.
Document everything about the experience after exam. This doc will help you next time.

Say, you walk on an unseen road first time and then you walk again on same road after sometime, do you feel that 2nd time you will be more in your control?

Hi. I’m sorry. That stuff and you shouldn’t beat yourself up because it’s really really hard to maintain the momentum for more than just a few months. Unfortunately it is humanly natural to feel that way.

I think you have a bit of a deciding to do. If you have plenty of GMAT attempts left, I think you might as well take the test. You can’t really get any of your money back unless of course it’s the online test and in case of an accidental disconnect, you can get a free reschedule.

If you only have a few attempts available, I would recommend skipping it.

If you decide to take it, you need to get yourself into a fighting mood. While it doesn’t sound like you are in the best shape of your life, you can still learn some lessons and use this attempt to your benefit. For one, you can get a GMAT score estimate. In the really good one 😉

However, you need to give your best effort at this point in time if you’re going to take it. However, expecting that you must likely will have to retake, I think the bigger question is what do you do in that case and I feel like the discussion is not as urgent and could transpire after several days.

What do you think?

thanks for the kind words and valuable suggestions. I will try to give my best effort. But i feel very sad as all my hopes to move to US are drowning. I will still try to keep a positive attitude and see that i do my best possible.
Cheers
