I previously took a diagnostic in jan of 2025 and scored a 145. Ive been studying since febuary and just took a new pt test and got a 134. I study about 2-3 hours a day around 4-5 days a week still working on foundations with occassional drilling and wrong answer journal. I want to take the exam in either aug,sept, or oct and need 160+ but i really dont know where I am going wrong with my studying. :(

@EdithM same thing happened to me as well except I tried 4-5 straight hours no break! I am trying to implement breaks to boost energy levels throughout studying, hopefully it works :(

@unknown I have went up studying 4 hours daily, 2 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the evening as a straight 4 hours creates burnout for me. I also work part time and am a caregiver so it is a bit hard but i am definitely trying!

@DeeTee I have been accumulating my wrong answer journal for a while now my issue seems to be not being able to apply the same strategies to the test and drill questions without confusion :(

@julielamberth yes I was thinking about getting a tutor just not sure if I should do so through 7sage or a different platform.
@TheBigFatPanda I 100% agree some question types I can recognize immediately others not so much. I might need to focus more on the recognition aspect through my wrong answer journal to try and see where I go wrong. I think this might be the solution to my problem thank youu!!!
