Guys I know we're all stressed out but can anyone lend some advice on whether or not taking practice tests this week and next is a good idea... I have been consistently taking them almost daily for a month now... I give myself rest days every 5 days or so.

But I keep reading about people doing only 2 a week now am I missing something... please help don't want to burn out this far out...

Yikes, that's a lot of PTs. You should only be taking 2 and using the rest of your time to do some extensive Blind Review on those two, otherwise you'll burn out real fast. Careful with taking PTs this close to the test too.

Doing a PT a day is near useless. You should aim for 2 a week, 3 tops.

One, you'll burn out. I think you are probably already there....

Two, and more importantly, you aren't really learning much by just doing a PT a day. You need to make sure you are reviewing them correctly and then addressing your weaknesses by returning to your prep materials and then drilling them, etc.

Here it is.

You really don't learn a whole lot from just taking a PT. You learn from the entire process of taking the PT, Blind Reviewing it, identifying the weaknesses it exposes, and then targeting your continuing studies at those areas. Once you've completed that process and feel like you have eliminated or at least significantly reduced those weaknesses, only then is it time to start the process over again by taking another PT. Actually taking the PT is just such a small part of the process.
