15- PT 41
17- PT 42 (Monday-Off due to holiday)
22- PT 43

Mar: (Sat/Sun at test center 12noon, same day blind review) 5 sections
1- PT 45

16- PT 50
22- PT 51
23- PT 52
29- PT 53
31- PT 54 (Monday- off due to holiday)

April: (Sat/Sun at test center noon, same day blind review) 5 sections

6- PT TBD
(makeup days, or just days where I will combine some notoriously harder sections for some kind of stupidly hard PT)

Nice! What's the reason for taking the most recent ones in early May?

IDK.

I guess just wanted to have maximum prep before them, and also because i have seen them the most recently. But still leave time for drilling.

Ooh makes sense to leave some time for drilling after the most recent ones! My PT schedule will probably be very similar to yours!

Guys, the study group was supposed to have met yesterday, the 21st, at 8pm but there was no one in chat lol. Is anyone still interested in continuing the study group? I'm free tonight anytime after 7pm EST.

[dasani13]

I just realized that the Trainer and 7Sage differ in notating subset scenarios in group games. 7Sage separates the groups by putting them on top of each other like this:

___ ___ ___ ___ ___ managers/inters: (this goes on the left)

___ ___ ___ ___ ___

and the Trainer suggests that we just puts an "m" or "i" next to the employee like Vi or Vm.

Has anyone done it the Trainer way? I'm used to the 7Sage way but I don't mind changing it up if it helps.

[rebexness]

That is one thing I hate about the trainer
fuck them and their subsets.

I do this

_ _ _ (manager)
_ _ _ (interviewers)

This works especially well if you have multiple subgroups.

srsly i hate subgroups.

Yaa that's what I do as well. I'm not down with the whole lowercase letters thing, either.

Credited strategy. The subscriptzzz are messy and crammed.

Also, I dig the PT strategy, Reb. I might copy your schedule except move one of the weekend PT's during the week.

Yup! I'm free at 7pm EST.

[rebexness]

Yup! I'm free at 7pm EST.

Depending on what is happening at work, I may log in but not sure how active I will be.

[dasani13]

Great! So I'll be in chat tonight at 7pm EST.

We were also offered the MLSAT study group rooms to review PTs (or drills) when we get there. I've used these before and they're really great for group reviews.

[FlyingNorth]

Would you look at that?

My number of posts reflects the score I'm going to get on the June administration.

ETA: This was my 180th poast, in all it's glory.

Lol. Now the real question... Can you wait until after June's release to make another post? Gotta save that 180, right?

You may want to also post the link here in case anyone wants to join in.

I don't have the link for the MLSAT room yet but I'll post it here as soon as I get it.

I actually wouldn't post it but instead PM to any interested parties.

How'd the chat go last night brethren and sistuhs?

How'd the chat go last night brethren and sistuhs?

"What are you studying tonight"
"x, y, z- you?"
"A, B, C"
"cool"
"where do you want to go"
"x-you?"
"Y"

(silence)

Wow. Making some solid progress.

I thought you weren't starting until football was over reb...we had this procrastination pact

Well I meant on football weekends

[FlyingNorth]

Fair enough.

I'm taking my first PT this Saturday as a "cold" diagnostic for these next 4 months of studying. Anyone who wants to join and discuss the results sometime next week, I'll probably be doing PT 39.

And so it begins...

Dasani and I are doing PT 39 on Feb 1, with discussion either that evening or Sunday, if you want in.
