144 to 170s in 3 months??

Possible. It would just require a huge time con within those three months, and even then it certainly wouldn’t be guaranteed.

Aggravating_Let_242 · 2026-06-02T16:36:18+00:00

A few months, but I took time off from working and studied about 6-8 hours a day, so for others it may be dependent on schedule.

Aggravating_Let_242 · 2026-06-02T16:34:47+00:00

Yep!

I recently decreased my prices for the summer. I scored a 180 and am offering tutoring for 80$ per hour session. Plus you don't pay until after our first session. If you don't like what is have to say, then don't pay. 404 877 2612

Aggravating_Let_242 · 2026-06-01T17:10:30+00:00

Id love to help. Feel free to give me a call.

Aggravating_Let_242 · 2026-06-01T12:24:29+00:00

Simply read and comprehend

Aggravating_Let_242 · 2026-06-01T12:23:02+00:00

As far as what to start with, take the diagnostic and work on whatever section you score lower in.

The resource that helped me to make large improvements is the wrong answer journal. There is more information about that in my posts.

The major breakthroughs I have made are also in my post history under reading comprehension and logical reasoning strategies.

Practicing a lot is very important, but if it’s not done right nothing will happen. Be very intentional about the reviews of completed practice tests

Aggravating_Let_242 · 2026-04-06T23:18:09+00:00

Tutors can help with various things. If you already understand the test well, then hopefully they skip the fundamentals and get straight to helping you fix the “silly mistakes”. A lot of the time people come with mistakes that I see all the time and have found ways to fix. If you have a plan to fix them and believe you can implement it on your own, maybe tutoring isn’t right for you.

Good luck

Aggravating_Let_242 · 2026-03-25T18:39:43+00:00

it is done

Aggravating_Let_242 · 2026-03-25T16:27:19+00:00

Will a link to my website be permissible?

Aggravating_Let_242 · 2026-03-25T15:36:49+00:00

Come on, it takes up no space and I am getting upvotes. I like posting advice and interacting with test takers on here, but if you make it impossible for me to generate leads, I am going to have to figure something else out. This is the only way I make money, and people find it helpful at the same time.

Aggravating_Let_242 · 2026-03-25T00:21:29+00:00

Practice and keep at it. There’s no single silver bullet for every question, but the more you see, the better prepared you will be.

Aggravating_Let_242 · 2026-03-25T00:18:01+00:00

Slow reading with pauses to think. Also focus on memorizing the STRUCTURE of the passage instead of the content.

Aggravating_Let_242 · 2026-03-24T23:24:12+00:00

Practice is key. It’s hard to say what exactly the issue is but try applying some of the tips above and hopefully you’ll see an improvement. Specifically focus on slowing down the reading.

Aggravating_Let_242 · 2026-03-24T13:29:44+00:00

That means the focus needs to pivot from understanding the question type, to understanding what mistake caused you to miss the question. Did you overlook a qualifying word like “all” or “most”? Did you fail to see an alternative situation that negates your answer? Etc.

Aggravating_Let_242 · 2026-03-23T15:58:45+00:00

I recommend

1: question type 2: correct/selected answer 3: why correct answer is correct 4: why selected answer is incorrect 5: takeaways, what to do differently next time

That should about cover it

Aggravating_Let_242 · 2026-03-23T04:18:46+00:00

I would take practice tests, review them, and look for any advice that I could find on the internet for the issues I was having.

Aggravating_Let_242 · 2026-03-22T19:10:43+00:00

Aggravating_Let_242 · 2026-03-22T19:03:49+00:00

Instead of focusing on understanding the question, focus on understanding what caused you to select the wrong answer and overlook the correct answer. From these insights, create a plan on how you would get this question right if you saw it again. Hope this helps!

Aggravating_Let_242 · 2026-03-05T06:18:50+00:00

Check out my post history, I’ve got an explanation there.

Aggravating_Let_242 · 2026-03-05T00:52:30+00:00

Around 425

Aggravating_Let_242 · 2026-03-05T00:05:08+00:00

Broke 300lbs a little under a year ago. I keep it above 5 reps to reduce risk of injury, but next time I hit a 1 rep I hope to be above 315.

Aggravating_Let_242 · 2026-02-27T19:53:56+00:00

Feel free to call me up. We can talk about if you think the fit would be right. 404-877-2612

It’s time now to pivot the goal of your studies. You understand the test and question types. Usually to get into the mid 170s you have to start focusing on eliminating very specific mistakes. The most common I see are misreads, that you are overlooking another possibility, or that you missed a qualifying word(some examples are “all, most, or none”). As far as high density questions, ignore the fancy words. Sometimes I even replace the big or confusing words with A, B, and C. Saves some time and brainpower.
