Should I be practicing with untimed tests first or should I go straight to practicing with timed tests?

@nye887085 you need the timed practice to build your skills! The two are inseparable. And in any case, the untimed practice to build up your schools is exactly what BR is! One test, timed then untimed, best of both worlds.
Haha thank you! Ive been doing timed PTs but its a struggle to get my score up. Im getting perfect on LG (maybe an odd 1 wrong) but doing brutal with LR! Thats why I thought maybe I should build my score up (and essentially my skills with LR) with untimed PTs before timing myself.

No untimed PT's. No untimed sections. Not even once.
@nye887085 Savvy, that's all I need to comment. :)
I like to think of my timed score as iron and my BR score as a magnet. So if you PT at 150 and BR at 165...your next PT will draw nearer to the magnet and your BR will pull the magnet higher and so on. But untimed thorough BR is the key to understanding. Better understanding leads to increased speed and accuracy.
You should only ever PT under timed conditions. You'll do your untimed work during your clean test BR. Don't waste PTs by taking them untimed. Train as you fight!
