How to improve the Blind review score

lhss3216

Hello, thanks for all the people at a great community in 7Sage and J.Y., I recently broke 170 for the first time.
I was really surprised because I've been constantly scoring in the range of 163 and 166.
I might have been just very lucky although I hope it was not.

However, whatever I do, my blind review score does not go above 173 and I am wondering if it is possible to improve my BR score and how anybody succeeded in doing so if it is possible. I am feeling like 173 is the max score I can get and although I would be very happy with that score, I am just hoping that I can score better on the PTs because I usually tend to score worse on the PTs than in real exams due to anxiety and etc. I tried reviewing all question in LR and RC sections regardless of whether the questions were circled or not, but I still got 173.

Thank you so much in advance for all your help!

First of all, congratulations on reaching such a high score! Since it sounds like more of an understanding issue rather than a timing issue, I would recommend looking at your analytics and drilling the questions types that you get wrong most frequently. What is your section breakdown?

It sounds like you are probably a very strong LG scorer, and that you are efficient with your time in both LR and RC. You probably have a good understanding of the test overall and you have a solid foundation for those skills. In spite of this strong background, I really think that you need to get a tutor to help you understand why those BR scores aren't increasing. Working through some of the hardest questions with a tutor might expose some weaknesses in your thought process that you weren't aware of before.
