  Hi! Boy that comment looks funky. There are all kinds of scroll bars going on. I went through the core curriculum and did the problem sets included at the end of the lessons. Once finished with the CC, I PT'd, found areas of weakness, and did pinpointed drills from the question bank.

  Yeah I have no idea why my comment is appearing like that. When I posted, it looked normal. Woof.

  And thank you, that makes sense. I didn't want to waste the question bank with explanations without knowing how I tested in each section. Thank you!

  A little bit of all of the above. On some areas that I felt I struggled, I would drill during the CC. Now PTing, this is exactly my plan: use the PT's to make the analytics better, and focus on the problem types I am missing most often using the question bank.

  I went through 1/3 or half of the problem sets available based on my understanding of the concepts or comfortability after finishing the lesson. I ususally finish a lesson, say weaken, do 1 or 2 problem sets and BR it and then move on to the next concept. Then after I have completed a couple more topics, I go back and do more problem sets for ones that I've already completed so that I'm refreshing myself and also increasing the difficulty. I think this allows me to keep engaged with the material and the different LR types and increase my understanding. Especially when you go back to a question you previously had difficulty with but found it much easier the second time. Or, if you still have issues with it, it allows you to try to get a deeper understanding of what it is you struggle with.

  @teamteamvicster Hey there! So you didn't PT during the CC, correct? I was thinking about doing PTs during the CC but now I'm thinking that isn't a smart choice given I am still learning new material.

  Hi @mjs44

  Nope! PTs are limited and precious, so definitely save them. The core curriculum should be about learning fundamentals. I refer back to the CC often to review things I thought I understood but turned out I only had a cursory understanding of the concepts. PTs are for helping us get used to timed testing conditions and to identify areas of weakness. Once identified, review core curriculum, drill baby drill, and repeat
