Some may laugh and think "practice makes perfect", but I feel this exam has the tendency to catch up to people who have submerged themselves into the exam and get to their heads like a nasty Criss Angel. I started studying at the beginning of May, working through the program during my summer. August 1st hit and I had only written 1 PT (at the beginning of the summer). I postponed till December because I didn't want to rush, and I had a goal of writing at least 10-15 exams before Sept24. Not being ready scared the shit out of me and I vowed to not let that feeling come back in November, so come Sept.1 I sat down with 30+ purchased exams with the goal of completing them all before December. I'm already a student at McGill university, but I've planned it out to write 2-3 (hopefully 3) exams a week. Obviously it sucks not being able to go out and get shitfaced with my friends on a Tuesday, but this exam is my top priority! So i ask: is doing 3 exams a week until Dec a bad idea if I can stay on top of all my other school work? .

3 exams/week seems a tad too much. However, if you can honestly say that you're able to handle it + your school work + life + NOT burning out, than by all means. However, as many will tell you, said schedule seems like a recipe for burnout.
Focus more on quality, not quantity. The reason I never recommend 3 PT/week is because I simply can't imagine someone being able to do 3 PTs, BR them thoroughly, then drill sections/questions that need drilling...all in 1 week.
