Update: Mojo request..

Update...

I was up early as had to be there at 7am, and DS comes into the bathroom upset as he wet the bed. It's rare that he does this. I had to laugh, as it showed me that today is just a normal day...change sheets, DS in top bunk bed, then I can brush my teeth.

I passed - I got over the minimum scores that I needed, and for that I was so relieved. I was pretty sure I bombed the quantitative section as I felt very rushed and then ended up with extra time at the end. I didn't have as much timed practice as I would have like in my prep. My summer class has been quite intensive so GRE prep wasn't optimal. I have to thank Larig for telling me to use the ETS material to prep with and ThreeofUS for advice on the verbal section. It did help direct my study.

I had to laugh during the analytical section as one of the issue question was to do with parenting and social issues. I sat there channeling the BBB when I needed to write my answer. I was not as eloquent as many posters here, but I think I did fine. My argument question to critique was on a medical article with minimal statistics to support the argument - again I channeled several posters from here.

I had an experimental section to do at the end, that wasn't graded. It contained questions from the new format of the GRE. For some of the quantitative, you have to solve the problem and type in the answer. At least with multiple choice, you can narrow down and then guess, which I did for some questions. The new verbal section doesn't have analogies and antonyms, which I'm good at, but more reading passages.

Thankfully, I will not have to do the new test as I got above the minimum score I need for the grad. schools I'm interested in. and I've already had and dark chocolate to celebrate! Once I do my final next week, DS and I can enjoy the rest of the summer - no more study for Mummy, well until September. Thanks for the all the Mojo coming my way today...it worked!

Silly request, it's not anything dire..I have the GRE tomorrow morning. I can take it again if I don't get high enough score..I just don't want to, as it will have to be in August and that's my one month for DS and I to enjoy the Summer.

THanks.
