I'm back.

In the past few days, I traveled to a city to take GMAT exam. And I got a score 440(IR2 Q39 V12) again.

My math is so poor that I only finished 29 items. I only remember math items that other CDers have shared. So I can not offer my own gg. What's more, the score of verbal is much much....more poorer. If I offer my gg, I would mislead CDers. Therefore I wish I could offer my gg next time.

I felt so frustrated at the moment I saw the score. After thinking of works I have done for preparation these two months, I know clearly that I deserve it.
I got Q20+ last time. After three weeks of preparation of math, I got Q39 this time, which means that the preparation is efficacious. My verbal score was about between 20-22 last time(I can not remember the exact figure) and I got 12 this time. Between these two exams, I have only read some news and "reading team" and do nothing about SC or CR. Obviously, I deserve this score and last V20-22 was just a good luck for me.

Now I have at most 9 months to prepare GMAT. The next 9 months will be the only chance that I might get a 700+ score of GMAT. Even more important, it would be one of a few chances that I can prove to myself that I can try my best to do something without regret.

Even though right now I have little idea about a plan to bridge the considerable gap between 440 and 700, I know that I can not do anything which would make me feel regret again!
