being paranoid
Posted: Mon Nov 10, 2008 10:47 am
I think I did pretty well on the Nov 8th test - I answered around 95 questions, around 10 of which were educated guesses.
However, one thing bothers me. It's kind of stupid, and I know that there is probably no reason to worry at all. So here's what happened. Due to several unexpected circumstances I was late for my exam - I was at the test center at 8:40 as opposed to 8:30. At that time everybody else had finished filling in all the required information, like registration numbers and such in their answer sheets. Also the proctors seemed to be in a hurry to start the exam. So I had something like 5 minutes to fill in all the required stuff and we started the exam at 8:45. So now I have this paranoid feeling that I've messed up something on those forms, like filled up a wrong registration number or test booklet number or something. The test just went so well otherwise, that it just feels way too good to be true, so I just feel something has to go wrong...
Ah, I think after all those GRE-s, I am just turning crazy...
And still, provided hypothetically that I've filled a wrong number somewhere, would that invalidate my scores completely, or I'll just have to request a hand scoring, and argue my way with the ETS?
