It's working....


Hello Friends,


First of all Happy Diwali to all.  


Compared to what to time I devoted yesterday, it was more today, for preparations. Since, I have booked my date, it is really like creating pressure on me to study. This pressure is really required because until and unless I don't feel a pressure I don't study with concentration, there is always something or the other getting into my head and I get distracted and I leave the book. 


                         This is my first time I have created my own blog. And, I feel that it would really help. The fear that if don't study, will make me realize that I won't have anything to post. :D So, I kind of feel pressure, so  I study and I study with sincerity. :)


This is how I devoted my time for the preparation:-


30 minutes – Editorial Articles from The Hindu and New York Times

3.5 hours to 3 wordlists from barrons ( I need to revise them again)

30 minutes- Test+ Analysis-Practice Reading Comprehension Test 3 from majortests.com Score- 6/8 :)

GRE Preparation

                   I don't have a set schedule to study. However, I devote at-least one hour for GRE preparation everyday as time permits. But may be from now I would stick to a schedule. I have decided to work on both quant and verbal everyday. I just use Barrons for reference. I haven't taken any overall verbal and quant mock tests. But, I do take sectional tests. I am average in quant. But very bad at reading comprehension, accuracy being below 55%. I have to start upon sentence equivalence and text completion questions.
