sooner than later
I’m taking the GMAT again one week from Friday. I guess I’m ready. I feel much more confident about it than I did the first time I took it. I hope this makes me feel better on test day. I have a study buddy who is good at explaining the difficult math problems to me. The math is not hard; setting up the equation and answering the right part of the question is. Example: what is half of the average of blah-dee-blah. I usually find the average and forget the “half” part. And yes, they do have the wrong answer listed in the choices.
This is the kind of test that can make smart people feel dumb. One of my friends is getting a PhD in evolutionary genetics. When I told him I was studying for the GMAT, he gave me some study tips. Apparently, even geniuses have a strategy for conquering these exams.
On the bright side, Mike and Alba are coming to visit us this weekend. I can’t wait. I really miss them! They were our weekend hangout buddies. Mike and Danny would BS about the computer and Alba and I would drink red wine and chat. It was a very cool, fun, easy way to spend a few hours. Now I get a whole weekend of wine drinking…oh, yeah, and some sightseeing too.
