He is probably looking for a "casual encounter."

That's awesome. I can print PTs if you would like to practice together or we can figure out a study plan.

I will take in December. I was going to take it in September but then I figured the early decision deadline of the school I wanna apply is at the end of January so there is really no need for rushing. My plan for studying group is creating a test center environment at a library or somewhere quiet on Sat on Sunday. Then we can check the answers and discuss our mistakes or confusions. Essentially, I would like to create a mock test environment since I have taken it once and my takeaway is that being able to concentrate for four hours is really important. To be honest, I am not very self-disciplined and between each section, I always tend to check my phone or read something else. I guess if one or two study buddies can join me that would be great!

I'm taking it in September also. I've only lived in the DC area for a couple of months so I don't know what the best place would be to set up a test-taking environment. I'm open to any suggestions!

I don't know why but the fact that you had to qualify your statement by specifying that you were looking for a platonic study buddy made me laugh so hard. Currently in the library and people are looking at me like I have 3 heads. :lol: :lol: Good luck finding someone.

Glad I made you laugh! It was mostly in response to earlier allegations that the OP for this thread was looking for a casual encounter.
