Passing the GMAT on Monday

Question

Hi All!
Thanks you all for your support. I find this forum really useful. I have been preparing for the GMAT for more than 3 month and I will pass it on Monday. I am worried on my mental status during the exam because last time I took GMAT Prep I freezed in Quant so I end up with 45, a score not representative of my true Quant abilities.
I you have any last minute advice on how I should spend the next 56h, please don't hesitate!
Wish my luck!

My advice to you is to relax, and have confidence in yourself. You know you've studied hard for 3 months, and you're prepared. Go into your test on Monday knowing that, and don't ever doubt yourself. Best of luck, and stay positive throughout.

Here is what I planned so far:
Gmat stuff
- Review Idio list
- Review my math formulas
- repassing gmat prep 1 sat morning
- review my error log in the Challenges of GMAT Club

Others:
- Sport 1h per day
- Yoga and Autohypnose to boost self confidence (I confirm it works!)
- Go out have diner with Alex - my future business partner

I just finished the third attemp for GMAT Prep 1. The last time I took this test was 1 month ago. I had 10 repeated questions in Verbal including 1 RC passage. In Quant, I had a 4 or 5 repeated but I needed to solve them again since I forgot the answer. I even got 1 wrong!

My surprise was that I smashed the test and got 770(Q49, V49)! my highest score so far!

Although 3 time repeat can inflate the score considerably, does anyone know by how much? Can I go the test confident that I will cross the 700 barrier?

Fig · Answer

Don't think about barrier... U are simply ready... and u will kill it

All the best again ! :D

Thanks Fig! I see that you are targetting HEC. Why this school?

all the best man!!!

pelihu · Answer

Fig has already been accepted at HEC. He's French.

Fig · Answer

My reasons are: > spirit of this MBA > highly international MBA > 16 months duration (not too short and not too long) And yes, Pelihu, u are right. Being Fench, I highly value HEC

.... Also, Pelihu, I have discovered a new Monbazillac... Chateau Poulvere, Emilie 2003.... Delicious equilibrium of flavours... a must try if u want, for a day, give some attention to a sweet white wine

... I'm drinking one glass of this wine while typing

The most similar from the same chateau is this one : https://www.vin-monbazillac-bergerac.com/monbazillac_aoc/monbazillac-chateau-poulvere-2001-cuvee-ana%EFs-p-18.html

Congratulations! Yah true. HEC is a must for French. I am also French along with another nationality. I will think about applying to HEC when I start the application process.

Off topic, I see that you like discovering new wine. I highly recommend you to visit https://www.vinorati.com. It is a user generated content site where you can tag, review, and find interesting wine. I set up this venture 1 year ago with some French friends.

Fig · Answer

Ok... U are probably doing your test right now.... Hoping u to achieve what u need

Funny that u are both French & with a website dedicated to wine

... I will have a look at this site
