Should I take a test today?

Post by LittleTree » Fri Oct 05, 2012 12:04 pm

The last few days I've been feeling bad about my performance. On Wednesday my drilling was poor and yesterday I scored a 169 while my average over 30ish tests is 173 with only 3 other tests below 170. Because of this I'm considering taking an exam today.
I'm very nervous about the decision and can see pros/cons either way (a big score today would be a huge boost... A poor score not so much)
Any input would help. Thanks guys.

I wouldn't recommend taking a PT today. It's going to drain you for tomorrow. Also, a 169 shouldn't be a huge deal - yes, it sucks to fall out of the 170s. But it happens. Everyone has an off day. Review the 169, see where you went wrong, and relax. Having a light day is going to do more for your score tomorrow than taking a PT.

You know what, that's the response I was hoping for and needed. Thank you. Seriously.
