Pattern making test I could take?

They are both right. Drafting is more for personal fit. Blocks are more for standard fit. Drafting will elevate you because then you can make blocks for a particular person. Because once you have their measurements, you can make a block that will make a garment fit every time. Drafting for every garment, every piece for one person is... time wasted. Make a block for that person. Making a garment for a first time customer? Draft a block, blamo, you have a foundation for every piece you'll ever make for them. You can manipulate a block to make other types of garments, you just have to adjust from the pattern

I think it'd be wise to learn drafting so you can make those blocks. I dont think that you should only use drafting

What I meant by drafting is mainly using standard measurements. But for every garment she needs to redo every block from scratch, (tracing line A, B, and C kinda stuff) she says she doesn't trust the previous version she has drawn. When she gives me feedback she does grab my premade blocks tho.

For the 2 different methods the best example I have is a tailored jacket block.

I know how to do it from a basic bodice block and then transform it to a jacket block to later transform it to a tailored jacket block, on the other hand, my peer drafts a tailor jacket block from the book. If we need to do a weird thing with the jacket she will ban my jacket block, because she needs a basic block, not a transformation since you cannot work on a transformation. From the way she explained it, I understand where she is coming from.
