I just finished the GRE like 3 hours ago, and man am I tired. Not from the difficulty of the test, because frankly going in to it I could care less, but from the fact that I had to be up at 5:30 AM on a Saturday. Now I know this time existed because I’ve been up that late drinking in the past, but I swear this is the first time I’ve ever seen it on a weekend after waking up. We drove down extra early because unbeknownst to us there was an Iowa v Iowa State football game. Apparently this is like some sort of big deal here. Like the town gains an extra 40k people for the day. You know what I say to that? Get a damn NFL team Iowa, that way college football isn’t the big deal here. It was mildly cool living in Indiana where there were *edit*2*edit* amazing footballs teams, *NOT*IU, Purdue, Notre Dam, am I forgetting anything? So anyway it was packed, driving through Iowa was amazing, I’ve never seen so many hot girls in Mini Skirts oy vay. Going to Rose was so a mistake after seeing that. The roads were packed with parked traffic, so it took some extra time to get situated, but we managed to take the test on time. Here are the results…
Verbal : 520 64th percentile
Math: 780 86th percentile. Apparently you need a perfect score to be in the 90th
Writing: No idea but prolly bad (I ended up with 5 out of 6 – awh 2/25/2015)
So there you have it folks with no effort, I managed to escape fairly unscathed. Bare in mind the 0 effort was a result of discovering U of I doesn’t require the GRE anymore, therefore why bother.
Comments:
3 amazing footballs teams, IU

When I took the GRE, I didn’t find the math problems particularly difficult; I found the time constraint to be more of an issue. What did you think?

Well I did feel a bit rushed towards the end… Like I had 10 questions left with 10 minutes so I started blowing through them, and ended up with like 5 extra minutes.
BTW I think it should be evident to anyone who knows me, whnever I say something about sports, I’m usually winging it
