I've heard of some people adding a 6th section (a 2nd experimental section) to build endurance and I wanted to know what Powerscore thinks of that approach. I'm taking the June test and have completed the full online Powerscore course and am spending this month of May taking preptests and reviewing them with some targeted practice on weak points. Up to this point, I have only taken preptests with 5 sections but I'm debating if I should start doing 6 section tests. If you all think it's a worthwhile strategy, should it be every preptest or would it be better to switch it up between 5 and 6 sections.

Thanks for the advice!

Hi fg6118,

Personally, I think it's a great strategy, if you have the time and energy to devote to it. (That's how I used to prep myself.) The only downside is that it requires about 4 hours of uninterrupted time. If that's rarely available or hard to secure, it may serve as a deterrent and prevent you from taking the test altogether. But if the time commitment isn't an issue, it's definitely a strategy that can help you build stamina and train you to stay focused until the bitter end :)

Good luck!
