Focus on Later PTs for last week of prep or does it not matter?

So we have a week left to get ready and I was planning on using my last week to complete PT 50-60(thats as far as i will have gotten). Are the newer PT's significantly different that i should be focusing on them instead of just completing up to PT 60 for the exam?
I am consistently getting perfect on the LG's and my LRs' are between -16 to -5 (least to most recent) and RC are between -8 to -4
So, is any section on the newer PTs harder that i should be prepping with those instead?

    DEFINITELY focus on later PTs. I think PTS 60 through 74 are much harder than anything I've encountered in the 50s and I'm glad I have the time to prep those. I intend on retaking some of the PTs in the 70s as well to make sure I really understand this new trend. I know this may be an exaggeration for some but for me, I've noticed a 5 point dip in the newer tests and I'm glad I have the next 10+ days or so to get acclimated and adjust properly.

    I would say that the LR AC's have gotten slightly harder to differentiate between -- so somewhat easier stimuli, harder AC's. I think the RC AC's have gotten much harder to distinguish between and the newer RC is killing my score.

    Later later later! There is definitely a shift after PT65 and while it is subtle, you will be thrown a curve ball if you're not prepared by being exposed to the most modern tests.
