Practice Tests

I feel mentally stuck and like I’m holding myself back from taking practice tests. I think I’m avoiding them because I’m nervous—I’ve been studying and drilling, but it doesn’t feel like it’s fully clicking yet. Because of that, I keep telling myself I shouldn’t take timed tests (or even full practice tests at all) until I completely understand why I’m getting questions wrong and can clearly see the patterns.

Has anyone dealt with this? How do you push past that hesitation?

I’m also trying to memorize simple phrases to guide my approach for each question type so I don’t freeze up in the moment. Does anyone have fun or effective ways to make those stick?
