    What's the best way to stay focused during this long test?

    It is very important to be able to read each question clearly and answer the question with precision. In order to do so, one needs to stay focused during the test and I want to know what are some things that worked for you guys.

    Thank you,

    Henry

    ha ha ha! When I go for long drives (8 hrs plus), I usually take the 5- hr energy shots .... it leaves a bad taste .. but seems to be effective.

    a) On the G-day, take the test at the same time of the day when you usually do the prep tests. ( or conversely ... practise with prep tests during the time of the day when you intend to take the official GMAT . I am planning morning session .. so I practise taking mock tests during that time. )



    b) Reach well before time at the test center ... ( this saves some adrenaline from last minute panic .. and traffic jams )

    c) I wash my face with ample splashes of cold water during breaks ( aah .. it keeps me awake )

    d) Ofcourse ... Sleep well the previous night !
