On Full Length Days....

Is it best to just take a full length and then relax the rest of the day, or should I take the full length and do some more practice later in the day (considering the tests are mentally draining)?

Relax for a few bit, but please review your answers. Since the questions that you have completed--the liner logic of your answers are fresh in your mind. Ge in the habit of sitting on the computer for 8 hrs. It will be tough but it will make you ready for the judgment day!
Best of luck!

I usually take it and then do ~1-2 hours of review, like notecards and memorization sheerts I have made. I DON'T do any passages or question based stuff, I'm just trying to do some passive recall stuff because my mind is usually too fired to do any active stuff.

Do whatever works best for you based on when you have to take the test.

I have to agree that it is good practice to have to sit and concentrate for 8 hours though.

ps. If you are wasting your time doing essays cut that out of your routine.

I hope SN2 can comment on why leave the review until the next day b/c i plan on either review an hour or two after the FL and the next day. I will definately do something after the fulllength like review notes or do more passages because it will be a waste of the rest of the day.

My real test time was at 1pm, so that is when I took each practice test. I would review content in the morning, typically looking at outlines that I'd made for each Kaplan chapter and doing some of Kaplan's subject tests to reinforce content, but nothing passage based that required extensive reasoning. Then I would review the test the next afternoon at 1pm, again doing content in the morning.

I studied pretty intensively like this my last 3 weeks before taking the test, and did 6 practice tests in the 13 days before my test - one every other day, and nothing but relaxing and some easy content review the day before my test.

Then again, I just took my test Thursday so I can't vouch for your success, haha. But I felt pretty good about my methodology and preparedness. Just hoping it translates on the real deal.

Good luck...
