Q for those who have taken/are taking TestMasters

Do any of you who have taken a testmasters course or are currently enrolled in one find it extremely difficult to complete all the homework on time? I'm currently in a course and I work on the homework about 5-6 hours a day and I STILL can't manage to complete all the homework. On the 100 question LR sections I'll finish 75 of them, on LG I'll complete all of them, and on RC I'll do about half the passages. Am I slacking or is the homework load just overwhelming? Thanks in advance for all the input!

I always finished LR and LG, but never really touched RC. I think it's normal to lag on the homework.

Is it normal to find some of the LR questions extremely difficult? Like I know in the 60 and 70's of the LR section I'll miss 3 in a row sometimes. Especially on those 2/N/S questions... ugh

I did manage to finish the homework, except at the very end when I would only do the sections I had trouble with and started taking full length tests instead.

Not to be preachy (so basically, here's where I am going to be preachy), but the only way to boost your score is to do all of the assignments they give you and to get practice. I know it seems like a lot, but suck it up for now and know it will be over soon. I used to do problems on the subway, during lunch, at home at night instead of watching tv, etc. It will be a rough few months with virtually no free time, but it will pay off when those acceptances start rolling in!

Yes that's normal. I missed about 2-3 for every 10.
