How to Properly Drill?

I'm new to drilling. I was wondering if anyone has any advice on how to drill? How many questions should I start with, time or untimed, etc. Any advice is appreciated!

Not sure if this matters, but I got a 151, 151, and 160 on PTs. I won't be taking more PTs until I start drilling. Thanks!

Edit: I am nearly done with 7Sage's cirriculum

Edit: So I just finished drilling 5 questions, and I got 3 correct, but I got all five correct during blind review. Would the next step be to analyze each question/just the questions I had trouble with and then do extensive reasoning on my thought process for each question? I know spending time is necessary, but I'm just not sure what the most time-efficient way of doing this would be. any advice is appreciated!

    I usually like to do drills in quarter-section chunks (6 LR or 1 RC passage) because it's easier to time. I'd also recommend starting to drill with the easiest level questions and working your way up during study session. I've found that starting with difficult problems and missing more questions at the beginning of a study session can impact my mental performance and make me more frustrated for the rest of the session.

    also start untimed to focus on thinking through the questions correctly, and then work on speed later

    Yeah, I'd analyze each question to really make sure I know why every right answer is right, and why every wrong answer is wrong.
