PLEASE HELP ADVISE ON STUDYING AND STUDY SCHEDULE
Posted: Sun Jul 21, 2019 12:06 pm
Hey everyone this probably one of the most repetitive questions you all might see on the forum, but honestly I have no clue what I am doing.
I use 7sage and I finished the Core Curriculum (CC) probably in February (a year before I had run through it once but never really PTd) before CC my cold diagnostic was 135 and I started to just practice some problem sets and RC passages and had to take a break for about a month due to finishing up my courses, I did take a practice test (I don't' remember the number) but I got 143. I do try my best to Blind Review (for those who do not know 7sage has it as a method) and when I take passages and pt's I do time myself. Anyways when I got back to studying early July, I took the February 1997 and got 138 (but I was sort of ill) and I took Prep Test 1/35 and scored about the same. My goal and what I need is between a 161-165. I hope to apply this round and was planning to take September (ah probably not happening anymore) and now I am aiming for November 2019 exam, because its the only exam besides September that is offered in a test center in the area that I live in.
I usually do really bad on LR (7/25 on each LR), and I find all the inference questions difficult
RC (9/28) which is surprising because when I was practicing RC passages I would get 4/6 or 3/7 (per passage)
LG is my strongest section (14/24 sometimes +4). fingers crossed that the experimental for November is LG
For the most part, the most part on the practice sets I did on CC I was getting maybe 2 or 3 wrong and sometimes its because I misread the passage and other times I usually narrow it down to 2 answers choices and end up choosing the wrong one. There are the odd practice sets where I will get none right but that is usually on the more difficult practice sets.
In terms of games on the practice sets, I usually get 1 or 2 wrong and usually, they are the MBT or CBT.
In terms of RC I just have to really focus and not get bored and I usually get 2 or 3 wrong, again unless the set is really challenging than I sometimes get the whole set wrong but usually, I don't. I do struggle when it's more difficult.
Please, Please I just need someone to help me organize a study schedule and advise me on how to study as I do find 7sage daunting but helpful! I am willing to put in the work, I just really want to apply this round and confidently do well in November
Thank you!
