Day 22 to Day 32: 8/09/11 to 17/09/11

Thorough review of errors in MGMAT tests (MGMAT 1 to MGMAT 5). This took quite a lot of time and I used to get a headache whenever I reviewed 700-800 level questions.

Day 33: 18/09/11

Took MGMAT 6. Scored 740 (50Q, 41V) with 95% in quant, 93% in verbal and 98% overall. I couldn't believe my eyes. :shock: . Took Princeton Review free test to make sure this wasn't a mistake. Scored 690 (48Q, 34V). Was happy with my quant score.

Day 36: 21/09/11

Completed the 4th chapter on the MGMAT SC guide and took notes.
4. Parallelism

Worked out 50 PS problems from the OG Review. The difficulty level is low, so I spent very little time doing these questions. Taking notes is a really pain. :( . Hope it's worth it in the end.
