So, do you have fresh PTs to throw into the mix just to gauge how you're doing aside from the retakes, or is it confidence boost central until the 6th? I think the latter is a great plan. I don't remember if you mentioned exhausting your PTs.

ETA - how did your first try on these PTs compare to the retakes, score wise?

I don't have any fresh ones left, but I'm not super worried about it. I'll just keep drilling as I have been, and trust that my skills are improving.

My previous takes for 60 and 63 were 167 and 165, respectively. I think I took them both in June or July.

That's a good plan. I'm obviously rooting for you because I want to see the tattoo of your score happen.

Dude, retakes are great to learn the test, but, are not a good gauge. Do not mean to rock your boat, just letting you know!

thanks D!

I just logged into my account and I see what you're talking about. On Monday there should be an option to withdraw online. It says you won't have that option until after the refund deadline (which it appears you need to write a letter for, like you said). So login on Monday and you should be able to withdraw.

Thanks, Rigo! Your infinite wisdom is what we seek when our feathers are ruffled.

If you cannot recognize patterns, you most likely will not score in 170s.

No problem, guys! Keep up your prep so you can kill it at a later date.

Indeed, June '15 it is! Until then, this forum will be one of my best friends!

Do anyone think it would be a good idea to take more recent prep tests (Dec 10, June 11, Oct 11, Dec 11, and so on) even though I took them several months ago? Or should I stick with the earlier PTs that I definitely haven't taken yet up until the December exam. What about doing PTs that were taken already back to back (4 sections each?) for endurance? Just throwing around ideas

Did you feel like Feb was not enough time as well?

anyone know how to cancel december? deadline says 16th... will that show a withdrawl?

saying I need to send in a form to do that but tomorrow is the deadline so obviously form won't get there in time.... confused. can't I just cancel it?

edit - want to register for june but only feb is there. so I need to cancel the whole thing I guess. any help appreciated.

I was looking into it and you can't do it online yet. You have to submit a partial reimbursement form. It's not until past the reimbursement period you can do it online. And yeah, June isn't open to switch to and probably won't be until after the Dec test. You'll have to cancel and re-register

could also just postpone it to Feb and then postpone it again later to June... would pretty much cost the same but gives u the opportunity to take in Feb if you end up feeling ready

Feb did not make sense to me for various reasons. I want to completely understand and master this exam.

Fair enough. I may or may not join you for June if I'm not able to reach 170 by Feb.

Sounds good! Let's keep working!

So, that solves that. I'm switching from Dec to Feb.

Damn. It sucks you're switching during your 167 high, but you'll do even better in February.

Lol, right? I think it's funny that my best score made me realize I shouldn't take in Dec. I've also decided to increase my retake threshold. It was 169 (retake below that), but now I'm thinking if I get below 172 in February I'll retake. If I have to study for this mofo 9 freaking months, so be it.

Hey mist, what are you going to do about the remaining PT's in your TM? I've got 3 more proctored ones after tomorrow but I'm leaning more and more towards postponing as well.

lol @ 9 months seeming like an eternity. Currently working on month 15. So there's some perspective.
