Hi, this is the first time writing anything on the board, so I'm a bit nervous, so bear with me.
I am preparing for December LSAT.
Last week, I have finished going through PTs until 70. And I would say I was averaging some bumps up and down occasionally from 163 to 166. I planned to go through from 51-73 twice until December LSAT ( a bit more than a month left).
I am taking two PTs every two days (of course BR afterward), and for the last 10 days, I am planning on taking two PTs everyday.
Yesterday, I've taken 59 and 60. So far, I am averaging about 170-ish, a couple 167+ and a couple 173+.
I am planning on taking fresh set of 71, 72, and 73 at the end of each cycle.
My question is:
How important is it to repeatedly practice already-taken-PTs?
I know that taking already-taken-PTs is useful in general and it's pretty much the only thing I can do right now, but when I get a good score on my second round, instead of being happy about it, I'm more skeptical of the score (but of course, I am happy). And when I get a poorer score, I'm just really distressed. From reading lots of posts, I know my schedule is probably something nobody would recommend, but since I am not attacking any new PTs, I get constantly nervous on whether my logic foundation is improving or not through these second round PTs. Although I do try going through every single question as thoroughly as possible as if I'm doing the new test, I constantly doubt if I was solving it out of my logic ability or from a bit of memory left in me. Consequently, I just decided to keep myself busy by keep doing PTs non-stop, so that at least I wouldn't have any regret afterward as to "I could have done A and B and blah blah~"
I know about the burn-out as well. I recently got out of it about a month ago, but I still feel like I would have some regret if I don't really try my 200%. If you ask me whether this plan has been exhausting for me or not, I would say there is exhaustion after going through 8 sections every two days, but it's pretty manageable until now. Add to that, I would say mental exhaustion from doing 8 sections every two days would feel more manageable than anxiety from not studying (although I haven't experienced it yet).
So, I just need a bit of advice on how effective it would be for me to keep following this plan. Or, any advice.
After reading the comment, I feel like I decided to "keep myself busy" by keep taking PTs, because I didn't know what else I should be doing and I was focusing "quantity" over "quality." I shouldn't be focusing on how many I finish in a given amount of time, but take as much time as I need to completely master BRs. However many I can get my hands on should not be important as long as I do a thorough job BRing.
Thank you.
1) take them with a grain of salt. They still are good for practice and I'm sure there are questions you still haven't mastered in BR
I needed to hear from Mentors or Tutors. Thank you.
