So far so good. The test day is approaching.
The test centre/day dynamics inspired me to go check out on my test centre, the room, the materials used for the exam for familiarization. I really acquainted myself with environ of the D-day. Everything seemed good except two.
The room was quite small and will be half filled up by a number of test takers getting ready to start their tests.. that wasnt the problem.
The small problem was the closeness of the sitting arrangement in this small computer room. The bigger part..
All the test takers that day were women! Now what happens to me if that day was my test day and I was going to be sandwiched between a handful of the opposite sex?
You still wonder what I'm talking?
Well my cognition will be practically destroyed!!! How was I even going to concentrate 100%.
I was too surprised to even ask further questions.
I practically ran away from test centre that day. I know I'm still going to go back there to ask further questions but gmatclub provides a lot of info and help.
I think this psycho-sexual cognition blaster thing can even affect any man of any sexual orientation.
Now GMAT is the most different test I've ever seen, to be taken lying down.
Does anyone know if GMAC has any policy as regard someone finding himself in this situation?
If u are too different to undrstand what i just said (may be you are a savant), why not take a look at this link so you understand what exactly an ordinary man like me might witness in this scenario. https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/be ... en-stupid/
Even in my gmat prep I avoid studying in such distracting scenario.
I need info from all the test pros in this forum as regards this.
Don't even hesitate to tell me if you find me ridiculous.
A kudos for your good reply.

Hi Nez,
Do you find this type of 'distraction' affects you in other places? What happens when you go to any public location (restaurant, movie, store, etc.)? Are you that distracted by the other people in your environment that you can't concentrate on the specific reason that you're in that location? How do you conduct yourself in these situations?
GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,

Hi Rich,
Thanks for the reply.
No. I don't get distracted.
I conduct myself well in such places. ( If I get distracted I don't know. But frankly if u get "distracted" in such places, one or two times you might roll with the distraction. Then it wudnt be distraction)
But GMAT is quite different from eating out or hanging out.
You don't need for such places the mental concentration for GMAT.
Or if I may ask, is there a level of prep that will get you write a GMAT CAT with the concentration with which I eat a sausage-plus-malted-drink lunch?
In my level I don't know.
But with open mind I think I'll listen if there is.
