How to use practice tests well
- Take the first test early to get a baseline, then build a study plan from it.
- Take each test in one sitting, timed, in a quiet room.
- Spend as long reviewing a test as taking it. Write down why you missed each question.
- Space full tests two to three weeks apart and practise weak skills in between.
- Save one official test for the final week before your exam.
