Which PTs should I take before Nov 17 Test?

[nmaugust]

With the limited amount of time left before the Nov 17th LSAT, I am working on completing the LGB (starting chapter 6 today) and understand that I need to practice heavily with PTS as I have not done so thus far. (I have taken between roughly 7 in the past couple months). I perform decently on LR and RC under timed conditions, but not well on LG, so that is where the emphasis on the LGB came became necessary. I am improving on LG so that is motivating, but I am unclear on how to best proceed given the time constraint. I have access to all the PTs (and have taken a few from 60-80) and initially thought I'd do 1-10 then move on, but I want to make sure the tests I'm choosing are appropriate/relevant given that I no longer have as much time as I'd like at this point. Thank you in advance!

Just to make sure you get through all of the most recent ones, start in groups going 5 back, and work to the present. So, go back to 80 and do that, then do 81, 82, 83, and 84. Then go back to 75 and work to 79, etc.

Good luck!

Thank you Dave! With the amount of time available and the fact that I am working on getting through the LGB, how many PTs would you recommend I take between now and the test? Also, how would you pace this? Thank you in advance!

I can't really say since it depends so much on how much time you have. But the key isn't how many PTs you do, but how well you review each! You have to get max info from each question you complete. For some people that means reviewing the test for 5 hours, for other it's 10 hours. Do as many tests as you can while still reviewing thoroughly and you'll be good

Good luck!
