Took it for the third time this October. (Did miserably in Feb and June)

Prepped by doing all the LG's atleast twice because my main issue was having panic attacks during the LG section. (Happened both in Feb and June, would have gotten 170+ if didn't mess up LG in June)

Reviewed LR and RC minimally.

Got a prescription for beta-blockers to control test anxiety.

And went in knowing that this was the last time I could legally take it. Suffice to say, I didn't stress out. Waiting on the score to see results though.

I'm waiting on the results as well, but I took the inclass Blueprint course in NYC. Once I get my results, I'll post a full review (very positive experience though, I'll just give more details).

Beta blockers----good stuff, I know a lot of people I lived with who majored in musical performance considered them performance enhancing drugs

Well, considering nearly a third of concert musicians use them, they must all perform pretty superbly. That's actually where I got the idea to take betablockers.
