Which is best? I've been studying since the end of June for the October test. I've gone thru all 3 bibles and just recently started doing untimed full length tests to see where I'm at. I've scored between 156 - 168 on the 4 tests i've taken so far. I'm wondering if its more helpful for me to continue to take full length tests a few times a week or to take broken off sections and accurately time them?

Just to note, I'm usually good on time (finish the sections under 35 mins), except for LG, I usually spend an extra ten minutes on each one, which is terrible, but I'll get that fixed.

Let me know what you guys think.

Thanks

One of the most repeated and valuable pieces of advice for people just starting out studying is this : you need to start at some point taking full length, timed PTs. Taking sections are great when you first begin, but if you gave me 4 individual sections spread over 4 days I would do significantly better than 4 at once. You need to start getting your mind used to working non stop for ~3 or 4 hours. You wouldn't train for a marathon by doing 26 1 mile sprints.

With only about 2 months left I would say its about time to dive into full length PTs...

How many full lengths for the next 2 months do you think is sufficient?

3/4?

That depends on what you want and how well you progress. If you're looking for something above 159, I'd say at least 10. If you're looking for a 170+, I'd say at least 20.

3/4 is definitely not enough IMO.

id say do at least one a week. if you are not ready now, then aim to start doing at least one by August 20th, then a week after, then one a week until the test ( do the last one in the mid- week the week of the test) Thats approximately 7 tests.

Even better, in September aim to do 2 a week. Make sure to do at least 5 sections per exam, and review each exam thouroughly
