Post Core Curriculum

Namritakt

I recently completed the core curriculum and decided to take PT 36 completely untimed. I scored a 172, and although I know this is not indicative how I will perform under actual testing conditions, does anyone have tips on how to improve timing? I am aiming to hit the 170+ range timed by the end of August (not sure if this is reasonable).

What is your timed PT?

I would just keep doing practice tests with timed conditions. You may surprise yourself. Skip questions you don't know and come back as needed. As you get better at the exam, you'll know which questions take you longer (for me, parallel reasoning take the longest so I always skip and come back at the end), so you can get your easiest questions done first. As you get used to the questions you should be able to move through them quicker, and time will no longer be an issue.
