Self-paced
Hello! Hope everyone is doing well. I just wanted to get insights on how to warm up before taking a timed PT. Do you guys do a RC passage or a couple of LR questions? If I go directly to the PT, I feel like I can't really "click" until the end of the 1st section.
Any recommendations are appreciated!
Happy studies 😊

Altan's recommendation is great! I wanted to add a couple of points. Make sure to avoid checking the results of your warmup until after your PT. This is so that you don't get caught up in any mistakes you made in the warmup and lose focus on the PT. You can also pull your warmup questions from a section you've already done, so you're not using fresh questions for the warmup. Definitely trial and error to see what works for you!
I would always do one RC passage (hopefully ~5 questions) and 5 LR questions. You can tailor it to your preference but I tried not to use any hard difficulty questions in the warmup so I could have some confidence going in. Whatever makes you click is the way to go!
I like doing something light either one passage or 5 LR questions, or both! It helps me get back into the funk if you will.
