No, not as of yet because I mailed off my application yesterday.......... How long ago did you send off your application?

I mailed mine on dec 1st so yours should be before feb 20th which is the deadline.

I might be scheduled with you since they will reschedule me.

I'm getting anxious now that they are starting to give out the test dates. I should spend more time with my prep now.

ok thanks, I heard the test is not that hard, its basic math, critical thinking, verbal ability and critical thinking. Did you buy the book that they suggested?

I have a prep book already by ARCO.

yes. I have the book they suggested. Now I'm really going to start with the preparation. My weakness is vocabulary cause english is my second language.

They won't take foreign bachelor degree in consideration so I'll have to take everything from them.

how is the program to all who was accepted?

I don't remember exactly but it was less than $30. Mine is the 3rd edition with the free cd/rom included. I think the reading and vocabulary helps with the critical thinking. I'm not seeing a section with critical thinking only.

So far I am not doing well in the reading comprehension section. I hope I'll be able to catch up.
