I take the GMAT tomorrow, and I’m nowhere near ready. It hadn’t occurred to me how much math I’d forgotten, or–since the GMAT really just tests your knowledge of basic mathematical relationships–how screwed I’d be if I couldn’t remember high school math tricks like the relationship of either of the equal sides of an isosceles triangle to the third, non-equal one. (It’s x to x√2. Or is it x√3? Crap.)
Fortunately, I placed in the 99th percentile for verbal on a practice test a few days ago. But that math score is going to kill me if I don’t get off the computer right now and keep studying.
Here I go. Off the computer.
