I think a pretty standard regimen is around 3-6 new games per day and 3-6 old games. Then about a section's worth of LR questions, heavily reviewing the ones you miss.

RC's somewhat different, and I've never drilled for it, so I don't know. But I think people seem to both 1) try to read more dense material and 2) just do timed sections as needed.

ETA: Personally, I'm starting up a schedule of PTs on MWF mornings, review missed answers in the afternoon and watch 7sage videos on missed LGs. Then redo the games I mess up the next day and continue drilling my way through the Cambridge packets on TR and sometimes Sunday. What mileage I get out of that is yet to be seen, though.

This sounds reasonable to me.

The one thing I'll add is that it's still helpful to redo LRs and RCs that give you trouble. Even if you remember the answer, coming back a few days later will 1) give you chance to repeat the model thinking pattern that gets you to the answer, 2) focus on the right "process," and 3) make sure you really learned from it. For LRs, a week is plenty of time to redo without remembering too much if you are drilling a fair amount, and for RC maybe a little longer (think 2-3 weeks).

HTH and good luck!
