Before you begin the GMAT on your exam day, you'll need to choose which schools will receive your results. You are allowed to choose up to five schools to receive your GMAT scores for free. If you want to request that your scores be sent to additional schools, you will need to make that request after the exam, and can do so online, over the phone, by fax, or through the mail. The first five schools you submit your scores to are free, but must be chosen at the test site before you begin the GMAT. Any additional schools (beyond the first five) you wish to send your scores to, or any schools that you want to add on after the exam, will cost you an additional score report fee of $28 per school. This may sound like a given, but it's important to complete the entire GMAT. There are substantial penalties imposed for any portion of the exam that you do not finish. Because the exam is administered on a computer, you cannot jump around from one question to another. You must answer one question in order to proceed to the next question. Don't take more than two minutes on any given question. If you can spend less than two minutes you will be in better shape for the rest of the exam. The ideal time range for each question is to spend around one minute and thirty seconds for each question. All answers are final, so you will not be able to revisit a question and change your answer. If you only have one or two questions unanswered in the verbal or qualitative sections, it won't make much of a difference if you guess the answers or leave them blank. When answering the quantitative section, it is imperative that you answer all of the questions in their entirety. There are fewer questions in this section, so an unanswered question will cost you more points than the verbal or qualitative sections. Time management is crucial in any examination, so it's important to know how many sections of the test there are and how much time you have for each section. During the GMAT, you will be timed on each section, and it's worth remembering that you may not proceed to the next question or the next section without answering the question at hand. Because you cannot jump around through the test, it's imperative that you answer each question to the best of your ability and within the allotted timeframe. You will have 30 minutes to complete the analytical writing assessment, which is the first part of the exam. There is only one essay question, and it analyzes your persuasive/argumentative abilities. You have 30 minutes to complete the integrated reasoning section of the exam. There are 12 questions that test your reasoning, table/graph analysis, and data interpretation. You'll be given the option of taking an eight minute break before the quantitative section, and another optional eight minute break before the verbal section. The quantitative section consists of 31 questions over 62 minutes. It tests your ability to analyze data and solve problems. The verbal section consists of 36 questions over 65 minutes. You will be tested on reading comprehension, sentence formulation, and critical reasoning. Immediately after you complete the exam, you will receive your unofficial scores for the verbal, quantitative, integrated reasoning, and total scores for everything but the analytical writing section. You'll receive your official scores (including the analytical writing score) by email within 20 days of completing the GMAT. The email you receive will provide you with a link to access your scores and detailed instructions on how to view, download, or print your scores. When you view the unofficial scores immediately after the exam, you will have two minutes to decide whether you want to keep those scores or cancel them. If you do not make a selection in the two minutes allotted to you, the system will automatically cancel your score. You will not be able to view canceled scores, and the programs you have your scores sent to will not be able to view those scores. If you canceled your score but later change your mind, you may reinstate your scores for a $100 reinstatement fee, payable through your regional customer service phone line. You may only reinstate your canceled scores within 60 days of the exam date. After 60 days, your scores will be permanently unavailable if you do not reinstate them.

Place 1 cup (185 g) of dry rice into a fine mesh strainer. Run cold water over the rice and use your hands to gently rinse the rice. You can use ofada, basmati, white, or jasmine rice for this recipe. Pour enough water or beef stock into a saucepan to fill it 3/4 full. The amount of water or beef stock you need will depend on the size of your pot. If you'd like to add seasonings, consider stirring in: 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 g) salt A few smoked fish A few smoked prawns Turn the heat to high and let the liquid come to a full rolling boil. Keep the lid off of the pot while the liquid heats up. This will prevent it from boiling over. Add the rinsed rice to the boiling liquid in your pot. Boil the rice for 5 minutes so it softens a little and absorbs some of the water. If the liquid looks like it might boil over, reduce the heat to medium-high. Wear oven mitts and carefully drain off some of the water or beef stock. Drain until the liquid level is about 1 inch (2.5cm) above the rice. Simmer the rice for another 3 to 5 minutes so it's mostly cooked. Turn off the burner. If you taste some of the rice, it should be just a little firm when you bite it.

Rituals, like a funeral, can be helpful in coping with the death of a cat. For example, you could hold a small memorial service with close family members and bury your cat's remains. This will allow you and your family to openly express your feelings regarding the loss of your pet cat. You will also be able to say your last goodbyes to your cat. Try and schedule a time with your family and maybe friends when they are available to hold a funeral for your cat. After your cat dies, it can be therapeutic to look back at photographs from throughout your cat's life. This is a nice way to remember your relationship with your cat and will bring back some positive memories. This will also help you to be able to focus on the good times with your cat, instead of the bad times. You may want to organize some of these photos into a scrapbook or memory box. This way you will be able to look through the book whenever you need and can easily reminisce about your cat. Framing pictures of your cat and hanging them around your house might also be a good idea, so that every time you glance at one of the pictures, it will remind you of your cat. However, this may not work for some people because they might get sad when they look at a picture. It depends on what you prefer. It is also possible to create some sort of memorial for your cat. For example, you could plant a tree in your backyard to memorialize and celebrate your cat's life. Place a small marker near the tree and mention that the tree is dedicated to your cat. Alternatively, you could donate money to a local animal shelter or sponsor an animal at your local zoo. You might also want to consider volunteering at your local shelter. That way, you will be able to spend time with the animals which can make you feel better.
