I finally got GRE out of the way yesterday. The whole damn exam lasted just a little under four hours. While the experience wasn’t terribly exhausting, I definitely didn’t enjoy it, espcially when the test center was more or less a exam concentration camp… <\/p>\n
Let me explain why… First of all, I had to read a piece of paper with a bunch of disclaimers. Then they made me write, word for word, a long ass statement on I was who I claimed I was and that I would keep all parts of the exam confidential… blah blah. Then I had to sign the damn thing, read the back of the paper (yes, yet more disclaimers) and turn in the paperwork.<\/p>\n
Then I had to literally empty out EVERYTHING in my pockets and lock them up in a locker (thankfully it’s free). When I said everything, I meant, EVERYTHING! They wouldn’t even let me keep my chapstick… But damn it, I needed to have moist lips to work properly… <\/p>\n
During my 10-minute break after the Issues and Arguments essay, I asked if I could take off my wriest watch and leave it on the desk so that I could keep track of the time. But nooooooo.<\/p>\n
So isn’t that just like some kind of concentration camp or what? \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
I am not too happy with the results of the exam… And then after talking to my cousin, I realized my scores still have room for improvement.<\/p>\n
Maybe I’ll have to take it again in March… <\/p>\n
