For me it will be all about drilling! I have purchased all of the Cambridge Difficult packets, most of the LR packets, and all of the reading packets. I really want to hone in on my LR skills. I miss anywhere from 2 to 7 questions a section and need to fix that. My plan of attack is to go back to the basics and make sure I am attacking each question type the correctly. I need to work on RC, as well, but I figure improving my LR is step one. The Cambridge packets and I are going to be best friends all day every day until I can get my LR consistently to -2 at the most.

First things first, NOT TO GO CRAZY. Continue with refining my approach, with the basics in mind, on each sections by just practice, practice and practice. I have a solid base for LG & RC, and I will continue working on accuracy for LR. With 6-7 weeks before exam, start taking 3 sections w/o breaks, and eventually increment a section leading to full prep-tests (+ additional sections) for endurance and "being in the zone"; also focus on learning from my mistakes. During last week before exam, decrease my intensity and just have fun taking tests, and build back some of the brain cells.

Drill, drill and PT 50-73 with Blind Review. I honestly think this the best approach for me. PT, look for weaknesses, and drill those weaknesses!

Edit: and eat lots of ice cream in between breaks!

Do you do a blind review right after completing the PT or do you take a break?

I only Blind review LR and RC, and usually I wait till the next day when I PT during the week since I work full time and PT in the afternoons. On Saturdays, I BR in the afternoons after I have taken the test in the morning. You don't have to BR the LG sections because learning Logic Games is more useful if you watch a video (7sage), then try to complete it after the video and if you get any wrong repeat the same process. The key to LG is repetition.
