Hi Sjed,

Excellent score man.. i am preparing for GMAT currently and have a couple of questions:

a) Do we get one score for the AWA when we write GMAT and one later? As i understand, the essay is evaluated by a machine and then by a person.

b) Any recommendations on how to prepare for CR. I have gone through the Manhattan CR notes but they are quite basic. Also, i have been taking some section tests from GMAT 800 and they are a bit tougher than the OG tests.

Thanks....

thanks man! here is my reply to ur answers:
a) no, AWA scores are reported within 5-20 days after ur GMAT, after the exam you just get a score out of 800.

b) i preprd CR from score800 tests (as they quite weird and hard), actually in a way they prepare u to see GMAT CR easier...in CR one needs to think the way a question maker thinks..:detective:

On the D-Day! for you and everybody else my recommendation is that be COOL and if something unexpected happens, just try to get that out of ur mind:chillpill:...then only will you be able to exactly repeat ur performance as was at the time of mocks....i am saying this coz i saw many of my friends getting trickd by gmat and thus end scoring low.

and reach center well in time...i reached 5mins late though
