After self studying since February and taking a Veritas Prep class that just finished last week, I took my first practice test. A bit surprised and disappointed at the same time. Some of my observations during the exam were that I thought that I completely bombed quant and I felt like I was guessing on 1/3 of the questions. On verbal, I was having a lot of trouble concentrating. I completely guessed on the first RC passage and I was having issues just keeping my mind focused and comprehending what I just read. I think I've got a lot of work to do. I registered for my first GMAT on the last week of May, so I have ~ 5 weeks. I find that sometimes even when studying I can focus very well and then other times I can't. I'm going to take another practice next week after reviewing everything that I got wrong to see if I improve any. Tips welcome!
