How far in advance, of the application deadlines, or when you were going to submit your application, did you take the GRE/MAT?

The MAT ( Miller Analogies Test) is just a bunch of analogies (i.e red:blue as yellow:green) I hear it's a lot harder then the GRE. You only get 60 minutes to answer about a billion questions. Here's the website
www.milleranalogies.com They have practice books at like Barnes and Nobel. Why don't you take one of the practice test just to get a feel of the test and then decided which one you want to take before you shell out money.
I haven't taken either test. I'm leaning more towards the GRE. The school that i want to attend accpets both. But my specifc program (Library Science) is only concerend about the reading part and not the math part( good thing for me because I suck at math)
As for how far in advance? I don't know. I just decided yesterday (Saturday) that I going to actually apply to grad school.
Hope this helps.
