so I have 10 preptest left
I ran out of study material with the exception of the last 10 preptest
With only 50 days left would it make sense for me to start from preptest 1 and make my way to PT 60 so I can get better? I can do 2 a day

Re: so I have 10 preptest left
Are you serious? Are you reviewing? Do you have insane endurance or have you not actually tried doing two preptests (I assume you're doing at least 5-sections), you're just figuring that, given the number of hours it would take and the number of hours in a day, you could knock out a couple of tests every day. I've done daily 5-sections and I burn out after only a few days, so if you really have this marathon-stamina then I'm pretty envious.itachiuchiha wrote:I can do 2 a day

Re: so I have 10 preptest left
10 tests should be all you need from now til June honestly. You have under 6 weeks, which means you can do almost 2 a week.
Review (quality) is way better than just doing PTs for quantity. Your review should be extensive and not just cursory, and doing 2 a day every day seems kind of unnecessary IMO.

How are you scoring them? Burnout is an issue you may want to worry about.

Re: so I have 10 preptest left
I wouldn't do a double test every day. However, when I was doing my prep, I threw in a couple back to back test days, and it made doing just one test seem a lot easier. If you do this, review will be more useful with the first test, as you may tend to burn out at some point during the second test.
Agree with Noodley though- beware of burnout.

Yeah, the double-test is an OCCASIONAL tool to build up stamina, but an every day thing it's kind of... too much?SFSpartan wrote:I wouldn't do a double test every day.

Hopefully after doing that many prep tests, you are starting to score in your target range. Review, review, review.

I am averaging 2-3 points shy of where I am aiming, this is why I want to go through the all the test again and gain further familiarity with this testcommandercody wrote:Hopefully after doing that many prep tests, you are starting to score in your target range. Review, review, review.

Re: so I have 10 preptest left
Taking above a word June D Day is 6 weeks away.
10 test, 6 weeks? I'd do something like:
Week 1: used practice problems, PT mid week, thorough review
Week 2: 2 PTs spaces out, thorough review (like PT day, 2 review days, break, repeat)
Week 3: same as week 2
Week 4: same as week 2
Week 5: same as week 2
Week 6/exam week: newest PT, review
Some would say to do the newest a little earlier to give more review time though.
