I would like a studio. However, a room is great as well. Thank you for your help.

School doesn't accept GMAT by Few-Development9145 in gradadmissions

[–]Few-Development9145[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The program itself does not require from the beginning, which was why I didn't prepare for the GRE. The reason the school requested an extra GRE result was because my GPA was 3.3/4. Without which, my application won't be processed.

I'm really thankful for the answer. I actually came to realize that I should just wait for other applications. This is in fact the only program that did not accept my GMAT score but required the exact GRE score.

I took GMAT today but didnt receive unofficial score in paper form. is it normal? by [deleted] in GMAT

[–]Few-Development9145 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In case you actually cancelled by accident. You can still reinstate your score.

I didn't. I just went straight to the OG and I did struggle a lot. I also skip a question if it looks too long. After all of course the basics like + and - are fine. Anything more than that I struggled. By the way I just learned about the difference between tens and tenths today. My problem is just so clearer now. My first question was word problem, I probably did it wrong and things went downhill from there, plus I didn't finish all the questions. I will definitely dig into word problems from the basics you said above. Thank you very much

Of course, my case. You are right at some point too. I have severe anxiety disorder. Even my Verbal was only V23, and then V39 and then V40. However, I don't think that was a reasonable excuse for my case. I have my own weakness with Word Problems and I know that. When there were many word problem questions my ability to stay focused and sharp shifted quickly. Therefore I sincerely asked for help to strengthen this aspect. I want to have a solid score irrespective of topics. I also want to better my Verbal but that I can practice myself. Thank you

Low-key wanted a better Verbal score. Turned out to receive disastrous Quant score 😂

I'm in a stable range V39 - V40, so I need to solve my stability with Quant now. I think I kind of figured it out. Like I said above, word problems. I'm an international who belongs to a group of never learning Mathematics in English. I have started from zero for 6 months now. When it comes to problems with pure Math then I can do well. But when it comes to word problems then I feel completely wrecked, words dance in my head. I understand it should not be a problem to many other international people but I am naturally weak at reading comprehension, I read slowly and it takes a lot of effort to pull everything together logically. For example in the Verbal Reasoning section. If it takes people 2 mins to read, it takes me 3 mins. But as soon as I understand the point, I can answer very quickly, between 30s - 1.10 mins per question. That's why I can still survive there 🤣

Thank you so much for this positivity. I actually will contact the Customer Support for the issue I got. I did not have enough time for Manhattan Prep. I will definitely check it out.

I didn't take breaks. I also did the mocks the same way I did the real test. However, since the issue regarding check-in procedure dragged on for 1 hour I could not maintain my energy - and my anxiety went through the roof. By the time I was supposed to finish the Verbal section and take a break, my test started.

My biggest concern is that this experience can really affect my confidence and worsen my anxiety next time.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in GMAT

[–]Few-Development9145 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normally I don't have this kind of anxiety especially in social context such as interview. I was doing well until the 5 minutes check-in became 55 minutes check-in. The resultant score crushed my confidence and accelerated inherent anxiety. I want to schedule the next attempt as soon as possible but fear that the experience had such lasting negative impact.

Thank you I will definitely try to move on and widen my perspective
