Powerscore Weekend or Kaplan on Demand?

So I have found myself going for retake number three. Shooting for October, but most likely December. I have taken the full length Kaplan Extreme course twice and improved 16 points from where I started. I just bought the powerscore bibles and have started reading through them. I really need at least five more points on this retake to make it worthwhile. Should I take another course? If so, it would probably be the Powerscore Weekend Course or Kaplans On Demand Online course. Any thoughts on either or these? What about tutors? Does anyone have any good recommendations for the So Cal area??

Thanks for any input!

Thanks! That's what I was thinking but I am worried that two days of instruction isn't worth the $$.

How much is it costing you?

$450 for the 16 hours. It isn't so much the cost I am really concerned with, but more the value. Would $450 worth of tutoring be more worthwhile at this point?

Considering you've already taken the class, I would rather take tutoring. Plus they're going to teach you PS system, which might trip you up if you're used to and good at another system.
