Cambridge bundles and books are generally the recommended drilling tools.
It's basically when you do individual questions, games, or passages one after another to target those areas. You can drill by type (weaken questions, grouping game, etc.) if you need to I prove on a certain area.
Kind of a tough concept to explain.

I highly recommend learning the material first, and then drilling 35 minute timed actual test sections and review! Drill by type at the beginning or if you don't have a full grasp of what a question is really asking for, but to improve you really need to be practicing with section work since this exactly what you're gonna be doing on the day of the test and you don't want to get habituated to being untimed or to being primed for certain kinds of questions.

Thanks!

Drilled PT 41 LG today with a 45 minutes for refining my technique. Got crushed by the circular picnic-table game.

How's prep going for everyone?!

Checking in! Retaker. Took it couple times, including last week. Missed 4 questions on games. Hoping I still get 170+. Starting to prepare to be safe and not lose momentum.
