No blog entry; Studying for the GMAT

I did not write a blog entry this week as I am studying for the GMAT test, which I will take on December 13th.

Am taking the GMAT test again for my PhD application. I took the GMAT back in 1992. I used those results to get into an MBA program (University of Illinois). However, can't use those 1992 results as they are over 5 years old. So have been studying the tricks to take the GMAT test. Am also having to refresh my memory on various math formulas that I have not used in 15 years.

The goal is to get a score of 600 or above. The highest that can be acheived is a score of 800. Most likely getting a 600 or above will mean that the GMAT test results will not be held as a negative in my application's review by the application committee.
