You will never feel ready: Overcoming test hesitancy

This can be somewhat of a bitter pill to swallow: you will never feel ready to take the GRE. And that's okay. You're going to do it anyway. Just like courage isn't the absence of fear, but the decision to act in the presence of fear, our approach to the test must be dictated by something other than our emotional response, which isn't always the most accurate or reliable barometer. Orion and Davis discuss alternative methods of evaluating your preparedness in today's episode.
