A promise is a promise, so here you go, my second straight casual look. This may be an all-time record. Go me. Some days jeans and a t-shirt are what the doctor ordered. Altough, I think my doc forgot to mention NOT to wear those jeans with the pesky buttons on the back pockets. 8 hours later and my bottom was sort of sore. TMI? Sorry. But it’s the effing truth. Note to self, don’t wear these jeans on test day.
Speaking of, a few of you asked when is test day. Don’t think I was ignoring you. I just hadn’t scheduled it yet. But that’s no more. D-Day, I mean Test Day, is April 23rd. $250 later and I wonder if I should’ve just gone shopping at Anthro instead? Nothing like spending a little bit of money to make me get a WHOLE HECK OF A LOT MORE serious about this thing. Please excuse me while I go googling for the following: GMAT tricks, prayers to say prior to taking the GMAT, what’s the best letter to guess when you can’t answer a GMAT question and so on.
Loving these casual outfits! I'm sure you will do great...we will all be sending good bloggy vibes on the 23rd!

I haven't taken the GMAT, only the GRE. Are there a lot of business related questions or is it more general knowledge? For the GRE, I just brushed up on my math. I'm not even sure what I made, but it was good enough that they let me in to grad school.
ReplyDeleteNot necesarily business related questions - but business stories and reasoning show up in the reading comprehension and critical reasoning. I've been doing pretty well on the verbal sections so I'm focusing on math. Funny thing is, I thought it would be the other way around.
ReplyDeleteI love your shirt.
ReplyDeleteIf it makes you feel any better, I have to take FIVE tests. 'Cause I'm gonna be a teacher. With three, possibly four, certifications.
Good luck x 100. I had to take the GRE and a GRE subject test in English Literature. They were both brutal, but I ended up doing really well. I think the key is taking as many practice exams as you can so that you get the feel for what it's like to apply your knowledge in that setting. It's like practicing for a marathon: you don't just run wind sprints and call yourself done.
ReplyDeleteI love your shoes!
ReplyDeleteVery cute casual look, sorry about the butt hurt. Hey I'm sending you all the good test vibes I can muster this month. I don't know anything about the GMAT at all but I can tell you that studying GRE books like mad really worked out for me. My whole exam was practically lifted straight out of the Princeton Review book. Crossing my fingers it's the same for you!!
ReplyDeleteI was so close to buying those shoes (in yellow) from Target the other day. I didn't think they looked cute on me, but seeing them on you is inspiring me to have another look.
ReplyDeleteGood luck on the GMATs!
Casual outfits are always required...I absolutely love your red shoes!!

Love your casual outfit. The mix of stripes, neutrals and the pops of red are perfect!
ReplyDeletenice & confortable combination! ;)
ReplyDeleteI love your casual wear look- especially those red shoes!! This isn't a style related question.. but I've been wondering where you got the box-y bookshelf you're standing next to? I'm moving soon and would love something like that for my new place!
ReplyDeleteI read your blog all the time at work. You're adorable and so are all of your outfits! I took the GMAT this summer for MBA... it sucks but it's not terrible. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteThis is random, but what kind of lipstick do you wear?
ReplyDeleteYou even look put together in jeans and a tee!
ReplyDeleteyou're my hero...gmat? butt-buttons? fabulous red footwear? sighhhh... you look awesome, liz. even casual.

Oh please send all good bloggy vibes my way! Thanks Lidi
ReplyDeleteLove your analogy - you're totally right. I'm doing my best to study for about an hour everyday. Except tonight. I'm giving myself an off night to indulge in Elizabeth Taylor movies :)
ReplyDeleteGood know those books help {and I'm sure crossing your fingers will help too}! I have 2 that I'm working through now.
ReplyDeleteThese are from last year - but I saw the new ones and truth be told I think they're a bit cuter and most importantly MORE comfortable.
ReplyDeleteIt's from Ikea. They have lots of different sizes - mine is one of the larger ones.
ReplyDeleteThanks Brittney! You totally made my day :)
ReplyDeleteThis is Mac Red - but the name is deceiving it's more pink.
ReplyDeleteThanks Morgan! I'm taking my first practice test this weekend - hopefully I don't do too awful!
ReplyDeletei love this outfit you look so pretty! i have that shirt in 2 colors and it's a closet favorite for sure.
ReplyDeleteXOXO

I like the pop of colour with your shoes! Very cute! You'd have no idea your bottom hurts! ;)
ReplyDeleteI am GRE bound eventually when I get myself together... Good luck!!!
