First attempt at both

Did a practice of verbal and quant, one right after the other, to simulate test day. Whew. Brain is tired.

Scored 570 on Quant, which is just over 50%tile. Scored 560 on Verbal, but didnt get a %tile on that one. My goal is 1200, since I feel like I have something to proove, having been out of school and full time work for so many years. You know, that this mama still has a functioning brain, despite my daily routines consisting of dishes, laundry, freeze dance, polly pockets and alphabet games. I also fully expect my test day scores to be lower then the practice, due to the general stress and brain fatigue from writing 2 essays prior to getting to the good stuff. So I want to see my practices closer to 700.

I spent so much time on this one problem, because I knew I was so close, but kept getting some crazy fraction like 13/30. Turns out I just subbed a 3 for a 1. Dumb, dumb mistake! I dont have the luxury of adding mistakes when there are so many problems I legitimately have no clue how to solve. Plus I need to pace better, as I ran out of time and crammed the last few in.

I finished the Verbal with time to spare because ultimately if I dont know what FULBIQUITOUS* means, stewing on it for another 4 mins sure isnt going to help. So my Verbal pacing is great, I just need a psychic connection on what 100 words to learn. Or back to the Latin and Greek word roots list.

*Sorry no def on that one, just made it up. Looks like a real GRE word, though, doesn't it?
