I'm in the same boat. Because of the pandemic, I am working two part-time jobs from home so that has allowed me more flexibility. I tried for about a month to consistently study between 2.5-3 hrs after work, only to fail miserably and realize I was wasting my time trying to make myself study after being mentally drained from work. I finally decided to move my work start time to 9:30 to give myself to study in the morning. I study from 6:30-9:30am and try to put in an hour after work too. At first, I thought I was going to fall asleep on my keyboard, but now that it's part of my routine it's pretty doable. As others already said, it feels good to be done with your day and use whatever time you have left at night to just relax and do whatever else you need to do.

Blind Reviewing Online Problem Sets/PTs

If you are taking a problem set or PT on your computer through 7Sage, is there a way to flag a question that you want to blind review later on? I don't have a printer at home, and I think it's better for me to have scrap paper and do the problem sets/PTs on my computer screen to better simulate real test conditions anyways.

Also interested. I'm studying about 24 hrs a week and I'm working through the LR and LG section at the same time. Also hoping to start PTing in July.

Hi,

Could someone explain to me what's the difference in usage of the Preptests 1-35 (Drilling Materials) and the Preptests that come after PT35? Are we supposed to take Preptests 1-35 as full timed-tests or are we using the different sections for drilling?

Thanks!

Hi there -- in the application, we are asked to provide the contact information of someone who might be able to verify the information we put in the application. Who would be a good person to include for that? (is this the equivalent to a professional reference?) Thanks!

I have this same question. I read on an older post that you shouldn't necessarily do all the problem sets, and that in fact you might want to save some of the problem sets for drilling later on. So now what I'm trying to do is resolving some of the first problem sets that are the easiest ones, then a few of the middle ones which usually have medium difficulty, and a few of the last ones which are typically the hardest ones. But I still feel like I'm moving at an incredibly slow pace. For reference, I study between 3-4 hrs a day, 6 days a week (also work full time but had the flexibility to change my schedule to best fit my study schedule). I'm particularly worried about how time-consuming foolproofing LG will be.
