i've just taken my 9th practice exam (aamc 6r) and scored a 31. I've been getting consistent 31's on my most recent practice exams and there's one more month left until the big test. Any advice on if and how I can overcome this plateau and do a few more points better in less than a month? I've been doing pretty mediocre in verbal and it just feels like I hit a wall.

i found that paying attention to the method of thinking when choosing a wrong answer may show some trouble spots that can help you gain a few points. in my case, I was consistently making careless mistakes that would have been easily avoided had I just took my time to properly read the passage and answer with the information presented. Things like haste can be easy to miss especially when dealing with stress on a test like the MCAT. Sharpen your test taking stretegy and pay close attention to your pacing to maximize your efficiency in choosing answers.
