Getting my act together
Time to get my act together.
Need to plan a proper schedule or things will never get done!
Check-List (Target: before 1 Jul, but latest 30 Sep)
1. Apply for company sponsorship.
2. Schedule dates and take TOEFL and GRE tests.
3. Write letter of application.
4. Fill up application form.
5. Ask Uni for official transcript.
6. Ask 3 people for references.
7. Ask Boss for employment verification.
No. 1: Done, now awaiting outcome. Boss and Bigger Boss seem pretty supportive :-)
No. 2: Ran into a bit of a snag :-( No dates available for TOEFL cos they are in the midst of changing the test format...darn, shouldn't have dragged my feet over this matter...And do people need to study for GRE? Seriously I'm a bit worried...
Dunno if I'll 'kill' myself in going for this part-time study...Got a lot on my plate and am tired enough as it is without the extra commitment. But there is support from my important people, hopefully it is enough to see me through...provided the application is accepted!

don't worry about the GRE too much, just download a few GRE practice exams online and do them whenever, like when you're traveling to work and what not. good luck ^^
thanks tiff, i just thought that the Analytical section of the GRE sounded scary!
thank vii. i know the verbal part is crazy...where did they get all those vocab frm??
years ago i went for the SAT w/o studying even tho i din need the results (think our sch sponsored or something, cant rem). The 'Maths' part was easy but the 'English' section had loads of words i've never seen b4 in my life. My score wasn't too bad tho..
Seems like the GRE is similar, plus Analytical. Verbal is tough ar, but i dunno if studying the so-called 'word-lists' are any good...How many words can u cram into yr brain in a short while? Wat books do u recommend?
thks...i'm reading analytical section examples from their website. Think that shld be ok...basically just need to get the hang of how to answer that type of questions.
