I'm taking the GRE's at 3:30 today. I haven't been doing as well on practice problems as I did prior to zlot, and the analytical writing section makes me nervous, so yes. I'm beginning to be a bit more frightened. Not quite panicky, but not entirely calm either. I think that I took the SATs too many times--perhaps I've gotten the feeling that if this time I do poorly, I can try again. Not a terribly smart philosophy for a test that's twice as expensive.
I do hope that I'll still be able to get in the "zone"--that state of pure concentration during which I actually enjoy being tested and find the problems fun. That's how I got my best SAT score.
