GMAT: From a 530 to 710 and finally done!

Just wanted to post an update, I finally retook the GMAT a couple weeks ago and got a 710 (47Q/40V).  I am pretty excited to be done.  I can't explain the relief I feel at night not having the constant guilt/pressure to study.  I would burn my study guides... but I think selling them is the wiser choice.  It's hard to believe that it was over two years ago when I took my first practice test and scored a 530.  That was a depressing day.  I am pretty sure I crossed off every school on my list and started looking at Oregon State or something (not that there is anything wrong with OSU).

As a side note, I am a big fan of Poets and Quants and their series "Handicapping Your Elite B-School Chances."  I decided to submit my profile for Sandy Kreisberg to review, and to my surprise, he did.  Here is his review that was published today, http://poetsandquants.com/2013/06/20/handicapping-your-elite-b-school-chances-2/4/.  Let me know what you think!  (If you do read the post, please note that I am actually an LGBTQ ally.  I am married with a couple kids...)
