my GMAT exam

GMAT is an easy exam. Though that depends on the examinee, it is no where close to CAT in spinning one's head.

I started my GMAT preparation by joining all GMAT related communities on orkut. I was happy to find many chupa rustam's of my company in there. I went through some of the posts on them, and also on pagalguy.com.

People ask funny questions on these forums -

can I prepare for GMAT in 2 weeks?

anyone from Pune giving GMAT? Let's meet and discuss... (such guys are here only and only looking for chicks to date. Even for me, that's one of the reasons why I join those forums but I never dare to make such posts...aur dating! hai dayya...kabhi nai...)

I gave my GMAT today...scored 750...Q-51, V-40...I studied OG-10, and joined Payal GMAT Coaching at Chinchwad Pune (if this post comes from a girl, all the guys will actively congratulate her, and ask for fundaes...)

(and some hopeless cases) I scored 570: Q-40, V-24, AWA-3...I am very disappointed...it was a bad day...please tell me which US BSchools I shud apply in (if this post comes from a girl, all the guys will try to kuchi-kuchi her...some will even name a few schools for her to apply...even US has gali-mohallas...)

I hated preparing for GMAT. All silly maths...problems like two taps A and B, A fills baalti in 5 mins, B in 4 minutes, both opened together, A closed after 10 minutes, B after 20 minutes...baalti has a hole at the bottom...water goes out and empties the baalti in 30 minutes...when will the balti be full if Shahrukh Khan opened the taps together at 12.00 am IST? How silly!

There is english which involves Sentence Correction, Critical Reasoning and Comprehension Passages...I tried to prepare a little by solving questions from the Official Guide (OG), 10th Edition...soft copy...but hamaar angreji to jaisan hai waisan hee rahi...

Preparation didn't help much...I went to Mumbai to take the test. It was at Solitaire Park in Chakala...19th July 06, Tuesday. At the centre I met an angrej guy. Didn't ask his name. It was the rainy season...I said Hi...He said Hi...then I said thank god it isn't raining...just tried to start a conversation...stammered once...he said - yeah, when it rains it rains like cats and dogs...I cud feel rings circling over my head...what have cats and dogs got to do with rains...anyway, I had eaten a sandwith and had 2 cups of tea before the test...something happened...while solving the english section my stomach started doing gurr gurr...things were moving up and down...lot of sound...all the test takers started looking at me...my stomach was disturbing everybody...I felt so embarrassed...20 mins wasted becos of that... :-(

I managed a 700+ score...the cats-and-dogs guy got 570...he was sad...angrej guy...he will do something...

felt like posting my score on one of those forums to impress chiks...but then there were too many chiks posting 750+ everyday...and many guys with 750+ too...I ditched the idea...
