Hey guys,
So I took a diagnostic and scored a miserable 143. After a little practive, I got up to a 153 on June 2007. Then I reviewed the bibles, did some of kaplans mastery and started taking PT's in February from "10 actual tests". I got 155, 161, 153, 156, 156, 153 so far...
Today I wrote preptest B in the Superprep series and got a lousy 150. I'm so rattled its not even funny. I got -15 on the games section, which I think was partially due to the fact that I am weaker on every type of game that was in that section and hadn't seen them in a while (although I wasn't bad when I was practicing LG's, albeit untimed; I wasn't as GOOD at in and out games as I was at basic linear or grouping, but I didn't dread them. I am weak on sequencing though). I can't seem to improve on RC, although everytime I hit that section it seems that someone deems it necessary to have a fullblast conversation in the library about something absolutely retarded. It's gotten so bad that I had to stop my timer, get up and move sections which, as you can imagine, is increidbly frustrating.
Anyways, at this point I'm pretty confused what to do. Should I hit the bibles again? I have been reviewing my PTs in depth and trying to focus on where my weaknesses are, but it seems like I'm absolutely brutal on questions 18-24 on LR, can't get any lower than -10 or -12 on RC and if I tank the games section, then I tank the whole test.
