If you are absolutely not willing to even consider applying not this cycle but the next, a take in September may be beneficial, since you really won't be wasting a take (you have Sept, Dec, and Feb before the cycle ends, though I've seen rare cases …
I'm with @"Cant Get Right" on this. While it is beneficial to have some tests left over, you run the risk of missing out on previous material. Taking the test when you're drink tell helps to avoid a retake, but anything can happen, of course.

Yes. There is a lot of inevitable pain to be had in prepping with those books.
I think @"Cant Get Right" and I are some of the more outspoken individuals in regards to PowerScore. It's tough truly understand the test with that material. The LG Bib…

The bibles are terrible, but at this point I'm not sure you have enough time to learn a new curriculum so if you're going to take in September you might be stuck with them. If it's an option delay until December and get sta…

I would definitely redo the 70s you've already taken to get accustomed to the new stuff before taking the fresh PTs. You're on the right track and almost there! It seems almost everyone experiences some hiccups with the newest tests. But let the man…
BR and really nail down the errors you're making. For a while, I was actually writing and tabulating my mistakes so as to see when, where, and how often I was making mistakes. I think you should be proud of the time you have, especially if you fell …
I've definitely been taking the approach of @"Ron Swanson" in regards to my rate of studying. I've been studying for about two years.
I'm all in for September, since I am absolutely applying for the upcoming cycle, and given that I haven't yet take…
I'll have to second @"Alex Divine"
Whether the new tests are favorable to your strengths and weaknesses, your score increase at the very, very least shows your potential. I imagine the score increase is at least partly the result of your improving…
That's pretty great, considering the newest tests are the most relevant, all things considered.
Are you strongest in RC and LG, perhaps? RC is generally viewed as being more difficult, LR as being more finicky, and LG as generally easier - weird g…
A minimum of 169-170 will be much more doable if you're averaging in a range a few points above that (i.e. 171-173). You may want your range to be even a point moved up from that, frankly, given the range you mentioned is your worst acceptable range…
This usually happens to me as well. I can't imagine most don't have this problem.
Skipping strategies help me; often, some of the easiest questions are ones I can't pin down right away, so I quickly skip and move on. Later, when I'm afforded plent…
I could be way off on this, but RC seems to do stuff like this even more often and more so as the test grows. I've been getting a lot of answers wrong because I didn't select a not-so-great RC answer choice.
Obviously, the key is to be able to con…
Definitely recommend a quick read as well. Often, the last passage isn't as bad and has less questions if you only have 7 or less minutes left for it (provided your pacing is about where it should have been for that particular section). If I remembe…

I never really bothered to try it. Though I admit there was a time or two that I thought of trying to figure it out. Then I figured it out by accident, haha.

less emphasis on the lawgic that often carries a fundamentally sound test taker through the earlier exams.
Completely agree with this, and I got burned on PT 75 at least partly because of this reality.
Yeah, you're right on the money with this. We obviously know the mayor made the request, but why? At least from the stimulus, we can't infer anything as to why he made the request. And, of course, since this is an MBT, we're only concerned with what…
