The Ecstasy & The Agony...

Here’s a genuine GMAT posting after a long time – over the last 2 weeks, have been at prep on and off because of work pressure etc. However just realized that almost half of my prep time is over and got to get serious.

So planned for an overdrive over this weekend (home-going plans cancelled due to floods in TN) and took both the Powerprep full length exams on Saturday. Got reasonably sexy scores-690/ 720….the metaphoric equivalents of say a bikini (but not a wet bikini – that’s 750+.)

Floated around on Cloud 7.5 for quite some time, messaging all and sundry about a fundu score etc –esp. since the Powerprep is supposed to be the closest indicator of the actual score…however just had a nagging suspicion that this might be because I have covered quite a lot of the OG (some questions being common to the OG & Powerprep).

So in a fit of masochistic enthusiasm … after the usual appams & stew @ Coffee Beanz…after the usual Mass with usual staring at local beauties (there’s one particular girl who’s caught my eye, lately)…after the usual “Hey God, tell me what the hell is going on”…I took my 1st KAPLAN CAT!

Maybe it was something in the stew…
Maybe He got offended at too much of staring during His time…
Maybe Kaplan likes to psych students with ultra tough stuff (just the way IMS does for CAT)
Maybe it just wasn’t my bloody day

Ended up with a paltry sickening 540 – UGH is not the word!

So after generally wandering all over Cochin, here I am back at my system trying to pin down where the &*$%^ I went wrong…

And until I find that out, no more updates on theatre, on how my HR guys found out my blog site or on the latest book I read…Amen to a noble resolution, Ganja Turtle!
