...and came back with nothing.
Systems were down!!! Damn test centre couldn't connect to Pearson's system due to some firewall. So after arguing with the CS at Pearson I've been rescheduled for tomorrow morning at 8am :x

Went in this morning 8am..I must say I was VERY surprised (and happy/relieved) with the result! I must have guessed good! :P

MGMAT: 590, 630, 590, 640, 590, 640
Princeton: 580, 590
GMATPrep: 640, 620

Actual: 700, Q46 V40!!! (I was hoping for something in the mid-600's)

Big thanks to gmatclub, I got a lot of last minute tips from here and wouldn't have been able to do anything close to this without this forum!

Nice! Looking at your practice scores, you definitely came out on the high end of the Standard Deviation and perhaps the one-day break was a good thing :wink:

To be honest, I just took my time and made sure I understood what was being asked rather than jumping to conclusions. English is my first language though so that was obviously an advantage.
I did go through the Kaplan, Princeton, and Kaplan Advanced books.
