Hi,
when and how often should I be taking pretests? is it okay to take preptests before I finish the cc?

Hi @kate.rodq!

Along with drilling practice problems (ideally daily), you should aim to try to do a timed PT once a week. What's more important is really drilling questions, though, I would say. I personally just take full-length PTs so that I can simulate test-taking conditions, and so that I can gauge my progress/weaknesses.

Hi there @kate.rodq, when do you plan on taking the actual LSAT? Also have you taken a diagnostic test yet?

No. First finish the cc, and by that I mean having foolproofed all LG from PT 1-35 and achieving >90% of accuracy on LR and RC Psets (untimed).

If those conditions are not met, in my opinion it is a waste of time and prep material to take timed PT's.
