Should I take PT 72 today, or relax today and tomorrow? Forum

I cant decide whether taking PT 72 ( and reviewing mostly LG, since I need improvement there) -- or whether relaxing today and tomorrow would be more beneficial for me in preparation for Saturday's test.

Has anyone taken the test more than once or have an opinion or or insight on this?

Relax and drill.
Don't risk your confidence/psychological state.

Pros: Keeps you in the habit/mindset of focusing for the 3+ hours needed for the test, Can potentially keep confidence up if you match/raise your score, and might help take your mind off the test (kind of ironic if you think about it)

Cons: You probably won't see many changes this close to gameday, and a bad score could shake your nerves a little.

It's ultimately up to you to decide, but there's some perspective for each side.

I did PT 72 today and it was a difficult test. Couldn't get that last game, guessed on last 4 questions.

I did pt 72. Its a pretty difficult test (curve was generous, though). I don't think it would hurt to drill the sections. Especially RC, which seems to be tougher the past 3 or 4 LSATS than in the past

I took pt72 last week. Did pretty well on it, and as a result I feel very relaxed about going into test day. Here is my question: Do you have a recent PT following a string of PT's that has also given you some sense of confidence for test day?

There is definitely something in PT 72 you absolutely must see. If you decide not to take it, let us know so we can direct you to what you need to look at.

I am deciding on whether or not to take PT72 as well. If I do not do it can you direct me to the "must see" aspect. Thanks!

I would say at least practice the last game in the LG section - it's very unusual. Pretty confusing at first and then easy once you figure out how to approach it IMO.

If you're not talking about the games please let me know what you're talking about. I only have 1-71.

Yea it's the game, there is nothing else unusual except just overall difficulty.
