This is really what the GMAT looks like, I felt Like I was in a highschool language lab

Well many of you know that I am in the process of applying for Business school.  This process includes a standardized test (the GMAT), letters of recommendation from colleagues, an interview, and of course essays.  One of the most popular essay questions for Business school is “What are you short term and long term career goals, and how will the education you receive here help accomplish them?”
