Older PTs or focus on more recent ones

ledkarly · July 2021

Hi! I have been doing older PT (1990s) and I was wondering if I should just focus on more recent ones (2007 -->) . I am planning on writing my test in August. I have read that that later tests are harder but I have been scoring significantly better on those than in older tests. Any recs? or should I study both.

If you're planning to take the test in August, I'd focus on more recent tests. On newer tests, the LG game-types are more variable, and in LR tends to be more verbose. Also, the Comparative RC passages didn't begin until PT 52 I believe, so you should get as much practice with those as you can.

Good luck!
