Registered to take it on Aug 1. Anyone else? Not that date, of course, but anytime in the future.
I'm surprised at the difficulty of the data sufficiency questions. They give me the most trouble for sure. I usually get them correct but feel very iffy when I'm doing them. It's all because of that -none of the above- answer choice, I hate that. It makes it so much harder. I'm hardly practicing writing at all, fortunately it's at the beginning of the test so it can be gotten out of the way quickly. Pretty interesting how they have an e-grader, I wonder how that works.
The rest is pretty simple. Sentence correction I love, what a breeze. Reading can be moderately hard but not like the MCAT. Critical thinking's cool. Overall the GMAT's a good test and a lot more sophisticated than the jurassic MCAT. It reminds me of how much biz blows away med in its efficiency.
I feel strange taking it as a 21 yr old; I imagine avg age is much higher for it, perhaps the highest among the standardized tests? But I haven't done much else this summer so I'd like to take care of it.
