I get how draining a long GMAT journey can feel. Can I ask what part of prep feels the heaviest for you right now: the content, the stamina, or just not seeing results? And when you think about your target score, is it the dream school or the life after MBA that pushes you more?
One thing I’ve really learned is you can’t approach this test with brute force. Even when it feels tough, it’s better not to lose momentum just do a few problems a day so you don’t lose touch. More importantly, focus on recognizing patterns: the types of mistakes you’re making and the question types that trip you up. That pattern recognition is what really moves the needle.
What’s also helped me is breaking goals into small chunks (like mastering one chapter a week), switching sections when I feel stuck (stuck with quant for long move to verbal and then come back), and managing energy as much as time taking quick resets instead of spiraling after a wrong answer. And above all, I try to keep reconnecting with my ‘why,’ because the bigger picture makes it easier to push through

It's been too long in my GMAT jounrey and I've been losing motivation honestly. WHat do you recommned I do, is there anything that has worked for you that can work for me too? I really don't want to do this anymore but I also really REALLY want to get that score anyhow somehow.
