So, tomorrow at noon, after God knows how many practice questions in eleventy billion prep books, I take the Graduate Management Admission Test, the required test to apply to business graduate school. I'm applying to the MBA (business master) and MPA (accounting) programs at UT-Austin for entry this fall. Hopefully one will bite. This is of course merely the first step toward eventual world domination, but I digress.


:stewie You know the test is in like three hours.

:stewie We should probably study.

http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j4/wrworth/FGbrian2.gif "Right."


I've taken a dozen or more practice tests and am about to slog through one last timed one from the testmaker peoples themselves. Wish me luck!

Or don't, you bastards! :shifty

Damn man, you'd think this stupid test was in the War Room at the Pentagon. Driver's license/ID check, I understand, but I had to have my picture and fingerprint taken and then verified maybe 6 feet away around the corner just to get into the testing room..where there about three cameras at each monitor. If I wanted to leave during the scheduled breaks I had to go through all that crap to get out and again to get back in.

Yeah, I skipped the breaks between sections. Screw all that.

Evidently, these measures are safeguards to prevent clones with teleporting technology from cheating on the GMAT. :clone :shifty :clone

At any rate, since the whole thing is on computer, unofficial results are tallied immediately and you get an unofficial score report before you leave the testing center.


*drumroll*



660 (out of 800), which is..pretty damn good. Did better on the verbal than the math, which is actually a bit unusual, but it says here that 660 is in the 86th percentile. So or every hundred people that take the test, there are 14 nerds that scored higher. http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j4/wrworth/Emoticons/tongue.gif The essay portion still has to be graded, but I don't think that factors into the 3-digit score. It's its own thing graded on a scale of 1-6 that's separate from the main score on the official report.

That was the biggest hurdle. I've been stressing about this stupid thing for months. I still have to round up recommendation letters, polish up the resume and you know..actually fill out the application through the UT Web site. :shifty But it takes the test scores 20 days to show up at the school, during which time I hope to take care of all that jazz.


Now where did I put that blasted teleporting raygun?
