Some of you may remember that I've been considering moving to Rochester because hubby got an offer to work on UR around last Christmas. I thought that this would give me an opportunity to go back to school, so I've been studying GMAT ever since. I worked hard this one and half month and all my hard work finally paid off this morning when I wrote the test. Guess how much I scored?

You seem to be fairly pleased with yourself so I imagine you did pretty well. Congrats.

Out of a total of how much?
Oh about the term of "writing" a test, I just leaned this not too long ago. It seems like writing a test means taking the test, somehow. It beats me why it is said this way too.Be good, and if at first you don't succeed, perhaps failure will be back in fashion soon. -- teh Spamski

What a nice coincident isn't it? University of Rochester it is. (And I guess that "on" should be "at", or "in", or something. )

800. There are three parts.

Is the score curved?

Yes the score is curved. And I appreciate that you have such confidence in me. I have actually not even heard of one person who's got an 800. But yes, it is not impossible, definitely.

Well, I got math 51 (full score) at 99 percentile (there is no 100 percentile), verbal 47 at 99 percentile (probably 3 or 4 wrong answers), and overall 780 out of 800, 99 percentile.
I am very happy. It doesn't matter whether it would lead to anything real. At least I've proved to myself that I can do anything if I really wanted to, and I can do it as good as anybody.
And I don't want a 800. I'm never a perfectionist. It is not real. The real perfection is the perfection with a little crack in it.Be good, and if at first you don't succeed, perhaps failure will be back in fashion soon. -- teh Spamski
