Taking full practice exam and reviewing same day

[deleted862553]

Hi all,

I am taking my test in about 50 days. I really want to wrap this up before Thanksgiving. This is going to be my second time taking the test. I didn't do too poorly last time but I need to improve some sections.

With 50 days left, I have about 7 weekends left. Since I work full time, there is absolutely no way I can do practice exams during weekdays, so I must do them during weekends.

I definitely want to do the 2 ADA tests available as well as 5 BC full length tests. That is 7 tests total - 1 for each weekend. However, I'm still in the review/practice phase so I want to save the tests, meaning I will have to take 2 tests on some weekends.

Has anyone ever done a test and reviewed it thoroughly effectively on the same day? I'm trying to plan out the simulations and if it's better to take the test 1 day and use the next day to review all problems, I prefer to do just that. However, as mentioned, I'm pressed for time.

Also, for the BC tests, are tests 1 to 5 more representative of the actual test or are tests 6 to 10 more representative.

Even though my test was scheduled for 1230pm, i still took my practice tests at 8am, just so I would have time to review my test later in the day. Its doable, and I always took like an hour or two for lunch after my practice test just to relax. I think its important that you don't instantly review your answers, take some time to relax while eating your lunch so you can come back fresh.

I think it's better to review it on the same day anyway. The information is still fresh on your mind, you remember exactly what you were thinking and why.
But like Ray said, just review it after you relax and eat something or watch something nice.
But if you review it the second day, you are like taking it all over again ( which is good for some people).

I always reviewed my practice tests and integrated new material into my notes immediately after taking them. Personally I found it to be the most effective way to recognize areas of weakness and address them, and made everything stick in my memory much more effectively.

I would review the exams after taking a 15-30 minute break to stretch and eat. I think the important part is to understand why you got wrong answers wrong. I would make not of any errors and make flashcards review where necessary. You should be good. Stick to your plan! It's almost over.

HEY! You got this, you're going to do awesome!

I ended up having to take all BC FL 1-5 back to back before my test. It was tough but I felt like it helped with testing endurance. Anyways, reviewing after the test is possible and helps in some ways. Find what works for you but make sure to review your tests no matter what. Good luck! You got this!
