I was doing most of my studying in the early morning and really wanted to continue that routine, so it was nice to find a tutor who was awake at that time as well!
Bransen started out each session by going over the homework that I had in between sessions and then going over new topics. I was really struggling with verbal, but Bransen gave me a lot of great pointers regarding how to tackle CR and the RC section, which were my weakest areas. I kept his pointers in mind during my second attempt, but was just super nervous and got two hrs of sleep the night before. I also switched my testing order last minute which is a no-no. Needless to say, I didn't do too hot on the verbal section the second time around, but KILLED the quant section (50Q).
Bransen was very encouraging leading up to my 3rd attempt and gave me pointers on how to be successful the 3rd time around.
I kept reviewing GMAT-like questions and all the GMAT Ninja worksheets that Bransen gave me, slept for 8 hours every day leading up to the exam and kept my usual testing order. I'm happy to say that I jumped up to a 41 in Verbal and am so glad to be done with this exam. Thanks Bransen so much for your help!
