I am pondering what I should do about the GRE – should I take it in three weeks or should I wait and take it in the fall or later? The test is changing and some say the new version is harder. This is frustrating!! I wish I had taken it already but I did not have the time to fit it in. I meant to study this summer and take it in July but I did not get off to a good start in May so now I feel I am up against the wall with only three weeks to study. Is three weeks really enough time to prepare for the GRE? For me, probably not. I worry about the math. But if I wait I may end up having to buy new study materials (all my study materials are for the old test) and have to deal with an even harder test (harder math), UGH. Plus it may push my goal of going to grad school back. Grad school! That is a whole other mess of questions that I haven’t answered yet.

Yay! I have made my decision. I decided to wait and take the revised GRE. I have scheduled myself a September test date and I bought some new test prep materials, one that even focuses on my weak spot math. Now I must get to studying. Next decision is which 4 schools do I want my scores sent to?
