Great move, Andy. Another one of those procrastinated moves. 

Two factors led me to this. First, I had a hard time deciding whether I wanted this or not. On January 2018, I made a commitment that I would really start this degree on August 2018, which is the first semester. Lo and behold, June came and I was unprepared to submit my MBA requirements to Ateneo. Second, I was really busy at work. When I submitted my MBA requirements in June, I did not consider that June is the End of Financial Year for our company, which is one of the busiest months of the year! There is absolutely no time to work through any reviewing. 

So, one week before the actual entrance exam, it’s become apparent that this is pretty nerve-wrecking and the advise online is limited. There’s really no way for you to know what might happen. 

For the record, I think I am a very diligent person. I have never had problems at school that led me to fail, not because I was intelligent, but because I industriously studied as best as I can. So now, I am worried. I don’t have enough time to study for this exam, and ace this with my industriousness. I am dreading the unknown. 

When I looked online, one of the things people recommended was to review as if you were doing the GMAT. The Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) is a qualifying exam used for business courses. It analyses an individual’s capability to perform in  real-life business scenarios by testing their analytical, problem-solving, and comprehension skills. While Ateneo is definitely not accredited to deliver GMAT, the entrance exam will most likely adapt the GMAT in terms of what skills to test out. 

So, tomorrow’s the exam, and I am posting this just so I have reference of that one time I regret not doing something, in case I fail this exam. 

Fingers crossed xx,
