30 days to GRE:
“A month to GRE! Ah, only fifty word lists. I can do much more than two per day! Gonna finish them all and spend the last week only in revising. The last weekend alone ought to do for Quants.”
15 days to GRE:
“I DON’T wanna work! I MUST start preparing soon. The most-frequent-words list alone might be good enough.”
10 days to GRE:
“Alright, suppose I do five word lists a day and spend the last day on Quants… She says nobody can get below 1200. Hmmm…”
7 days to GRE:
“Goddamn these cycle tests. Forty more to go. Okay, I’ll mug till 9, study for CT till 12, get up at 5.15… Never mind. I’ll play AOE and postpone GRE. By an year.”
