Nervous

Sep 27, 2006 16:28

I am nervous as hell right now. I am going to be taking my GRE exam tomorrow at 12:00pm and for anyone that doesn't know this is a big deal for me. This test is more important than the SAT because when it comes to graduate school they aren't looking at your extracurriculars or anything like that. They just want to know what your grades are, what some of your teachers think of you, and how you score on a standardized test. That's it. The first two I have in the bag but it is the GRE that has me hung up. I have been studying for it and I am as prepared as I can be for it but I still don't feel comfortable. I know that I can take it again in October if I don't do well but I would prefer not to because not only does it cost $130 every time you take it, but it also takes a lot of time to prepare for. I have been going through hundreds of flashcards and math problems in preparation for tomorrow. I just hope that it pays off. The max score is a 1600 like the old SAT and I'm hoping to get between at least a 1300 with my goal being a 1500. I know that sounds pretty hard and it is but I think that I can do it. If I do get a score between a 1300 and a 1500 I will be able to take a major breather because I will have done everything that I could possibly do to ensure that I get into a good graduate school on a full ride. With my grades, recommendations, and with good GRE scores I will get in everywhere that I apply including Harvard.

I ask that anyone who reads this before 12:00pm tomorrow to think about me and maybe say a little prayer or send me some light because I am going to need some help getting over my anxiety.
