PrepTest Question

Once I complete the 7sage course, how often per week should I take a preptest?

Twice seems good for most people! just make sure it's not one after the other and you give lots of time for BR

Yup, exactly! I think twice a week seems to be the recommended standard. It gives you the perfect amount of time to do them and get a thorough blind review done while staving off burn out.

Yeah, twice is about all most people can handle productively. It’s important to remember that taking a PT is actually a very small part of the PT process. The BR is much more important, and addressing the weaknesses the PT/BR expose is even more important still. This takes way more time than the actual PT, and doing this part of the process thoroughly is far more important than the actual PT, especially when you’re fresh out of the curriculum. I might even plan for just one a week starting out, depending on where you score on your first post curriculum PT and how that score compares to your target score. Taking PTs feels super productive, but it really isn’t unless you’re learning the lessons each PT has to teach you. So just be careful you’re viewing PTs for what they are.

Thanks everyone for your advice.

1-3 times. Most people stick with 2/week. My PT/BR schedule is as follows:
Monday: PT and start BRing
Tuesday: BR
Wednesday: BR + review what I got wrong post-BR completion
Thursday: PT and start BRing
Friday: BR
Saturday: BR + review what I got wrong post-BR completion
Sunday: Review this week's BRs and drill question, passage, and game types that gave me trouble. Reserve half the day for relaxing.
