Hello all, I have the cambridge LR by type packets and I wanted to know what is the best way to tackle them? Someone said go through a full LR-section and then based on what your problem question-types are drill like those, while other said just go through each packet one-by-one. So I am at a bit of a loss here.

can you buy only the difficulty packets? ive been searching their website but i only see packets divided by question type, then within the packet they divide them by difficulty. is it better to get the LR book with all question types

I used PTs to diagnose my weaknesses and then focused most heavily on those types of questions (still incorporated other types of questions that weren't as hard for me into my drilling, just not quite as much). I usually mixed mine up and would do around 20-25 LR questions from a single packet per night in addition to drilling LG and RC. Some people prefer to only work on LR or LG or RC on each night and do a lot of that - it just depends on your preferences.
