I'm taking it either tomorrow or Tuesday depending on how late I have to stay at work!
Okay right on. Try to remember to let me know if you take it tomorrow. I'll try to remember to quote you and ask tomorrow lol. I'm going to try to get up early and take it @ 830 .

Will do, for me it would be like 5 p.m. haha but I will let you know!

yeah not a problem. I doubt I'll have it blind reviewed by then anyway. I don't plan on scoring it until its BR'ed

Anybody got any ideas?
I'm interested in everything!
How far are you thinking? My votes on Dubai if you've got unlimited mileage and money haha. If not, use cyber Monday to cop a sweet cruise package
DUBAII

I saved up some money, I don't know if it would be enough to go there......but that would be the place to go!

It's THE BEST!! I have family there so I've been twice and there's absolutely nothing like it. They have cars in the malls because the malls are so big

Other than PTing, how can I improve timing? On everything except LR, I struggle with time.

This sounds weird, but to increase your LG time, play a lot of tetris. It seriously makes your reaction time faster and you get better at picking out patterns

anyone else find the RC section of PT 73 extremely difficult?

Sudoku! And well just drilling practice makes perfect. Just by continuously going through them your brain is going to see patterns and make connections faster. Depending on when you're taking you can look into stuff to help you read faster for RC, or just try to read more in general (non fiction newspaper type stuff).

It's not the reading or diagramming. Typically for LG/RC, I just get caught up on a question or two, so it causes me to get stuck and waste time. Then by the last section I'm running two or three minutes behind schedule. I'm scoring in the 170's, so I understanding the questions, I just need to be faster.

Im at a loss with RC, I just cant even go under -7. I just took 72 and I got -8 (strange that I got only -1 on the equipoise passage). Even on the "easier" passages I am not able to go -0.

I don't understand the rules to sudoku! I'm so jealous of you competent sudoku-ers

Also, I'm planning on taking only two more PTs before the test: one tomorrow and one on Wed. Thursday will be mixed review and Friday will be relax and reload.
Let's start taking spots to be a 180 poster. Everyone who's made an effort to help this thread gets to be part of 180 day!
I'm confident we'll get there.

If the little surfer penguin on my socks can master those waves, we can get to 180
