Yeah, definitely define what exactly "light prep" is. Obviously anyone who can baseline at 165 probably can hit 175+, but there are many variables that would go into determining how hard that person would have to work.

Light prep as in I'm probably going to be working full-time and self studying for 2-3 hours a day. Sorry, should have clarified.WatchClosely wrote:Define "light prep?" My diagnostic was similar and I was 175+ after drilling about 20 practice exams.

That's close to what I did. Did ~10 PTs, a couple books, and lots of LG drills. Once you get every section to about -4 or better, just do as many PTs as you have time for.

Agree totally. That's not light prep in my book. That's right in line with a solid prep, just over a shorter timeframe.WatchClosely wrote:Then yes; achieving a 175 is entirely feasible.NoSpecialSymbolsPlz wrote:Light prep as in I'm probably going to be working full-time and self studying for 2-3 hours a day.
