Need some advice... have GMAT in 2 weeks. About a month ago I was scoring in the range in want on the test (right after I finish the MGMAT course). Since then I have been doing strictly OG guide problems. I have taken tests the last 2 weeks and my score has been declining significantly. Obviously a steady diet of practice problems has not helped at all. What can I do differently to try to get my score up by test day?

Finally pulled the trigger on it. It seemed to work for my healthy hair but for the overly damaged bits it did not seem to work.

Anyone else have this happen? Just for some context I’ve been bleaching my hair for years and as a result it can’t really handle high heat

should I try for? I was really hoping to get
