How do you "take a section" for a practice test?

I've been reading some suggestions to simulate a modern test for the practice tests, and then "take an extra section" from an older test to simulate how the testing would feel day of. But how do you do this?

Do you make a drill with it limited to "Tags and Preptests" then only check off 1 prep test and then check off all the item tags? What do you do then with the drill difficulty slider? Wouldn't the drill difficulty slider not be in effect if you do this because you're just taking all the questions from a section so you can't control the difficulty?

    You can take a single section by creating a custom Drill using the Advanced Builder.

    Here are the steps to do this:

    1 Navigate to Drills and select "Use Advanced Builder"
    2. Filter PrepTests to show
    3. Filter Sections (LG)
    4. Filter tags by tapping (optional)
    5. Filter further by typing keywords like "PT3 S1" (optional)
    6. Tap the plus icon at the leftmost column to add all the questions
    7. Finally, tap on "Create Drill with ... questions" located at the bottom of the page

    I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions!
