...and I'm Back

Sorry guys for the absence!  I've been really busy with studying.  I was also going to post my debrief on my HBS visit tonight, but it's not done yet.  I'm typing it up in word first because it's THAT long.  I'll be able to post it tomorrow...  I PROMISE!

So I've been doing a lot of studying lately.  I have 3 weeks to go and it's crunch time!  If you remember waaay back in January, I'm not sure if I posted it, but the night I signed up for my MGMAT class, they were giving away a free 2 hour online workshop to those who attended the seminar that was also occurring that night.  I opted for the 750+ Sentence Correction workshop since that's my weakness.

It went very well.  I learned about breaking down a sentence to it's core.  I know this seems very simple and basic but being able to break down the sentence is one thing.  Knowing how to work with it and evaluate it is another.  The class focused on the latter.  I then did the SC question bank provided by MGMAT in the student center.  I don't think it was a good idea to do the question bank right after the workshop because the workshop focused on advanced topics whereas the question bank did not.

My mind was on that 750 level while trying to answer the questions and I forgot about the basics.  I was trying to use the methods I had just learned for advanced questions to analyze the easier ones.  It didn't turn out so well.  So be warned that if you take that workshop, do not study easy SC corrections right after.  Maybe take an hour off or something to clear your head.

Very short post tonight guys... it's time for me to go to sleep!  I'm trying to get myself into a regular sleeping schedule.  I'm taking medicine for my allergies so that the anti-histamine can build up in my system.  It's been giving me a lot of trouble lately to the point where it's difficult for me to finish exams comfortably....like to the point where I have to go to the bathroom and get myself together for 10 minutes (yes while time is running).

So I've found that proper sleep and medication helps...

G'night
