Hi!

7Sage tutor here. Speaking for myself, I love to help students with LR--particularly the question types you highlighted because there is a ton of overlap in how we approach NA and strengthen/weaken. We have a great roster of experienced tutors we can match you up with depending on your learning style and specific needs.

Here's a link to our tutoring pricing: https://classic.7sage.com/pricing-tutoring/. Any program listed here includes an individualized study/lesson plan that will map out each of your lessons and all the homework you will be completing in between. We also include a free 30 minute intro session (for any package over 3 hours) to go over the lesson plan and answer any preliminary questions you might have. We really pride ourselves on tailoring our tutoring to the individual and making sure we are responding to your specific needs and goals.

If you want to schedule a free consultation with one of our tutors you can do so here: https://calendly.com/7sage-tutoring/7sage-tutoring-free-consultation?utm_source=FCA_A

Also, please don't hesitate to reach out to me directly at alex.jacobs@.com if I can be of any further assistance.

Happy Holidays!

7Sage tutor here! Agree with sh.francis in their post! You should only do as many practice drills as needed to reinforce the concepts that you've just learned in the core curriculum. As far as your other question goes, I would definitely recommend following the core currriculum in order and avoid taking PT's until you've finished (this is assuming you have at least a few months until your test date).

Once you do start taking PT's I would recommend 1 per week (2 at a maximum). PT's are how we measure progress, but they are not where the real growth occurs. Try doing more targeted drills between your PT's that target high priority question types or work on timing. This is where you can utilize more of the CC drills or build your own using the drills feature.

Also--dedicating more time to things like blind review, wrong answer journals and foolproofing might feel tedious, but it's where the real growth occurs. Building a study schedule of which sections you'd like to focus on each day between your PT's can give you some structure in between the PT's as well.

Hope that makes sense!

Hello!

7Sage tutor here! I echo everything that pnwrunner said in their post. Given your timeframe, I would complete the core curriculum before touching any PT's.

In general, I think people over-rely on PT's at the expense of more targeted drills. Once you do start taking PT's I would recommend 1 per week (2 at a maximum). PT's are how we measure progress, but they are not where the real growth occurs. As The2ndSage mentioned in their post, blind review is an essential part of the process and should not be rushed.

I would have the bulk of your workload (after completing the core curriculum) be dedicated to individual test sections or drills that address specific problems, center around high-priority question types or focus on timing issues. One PT a week will be a great measure of your progress and will give you analytics to base the rest of your prep around.

Hope that makes sense!
