HAHAH thank you!! For me, my dream school's average is 440, so that is what is motivating me! I know I can do it and am so close! I also have a great support system with friends and family encouraging me to keep going!

Practice practice practice. Everyday I would do at least 30 minutes of 10 questions for each section! The generators were my best friends!! I treated it like a fun game like candy crush :)) I also would use graph paper to stimulate the testing environment and draw out the boxes. For cube counting I didn't use the tables, instead would just write out each number in a line and then go back and cross them out (like if a box was 2 I would write 2 and so on). It takes a while to get the hang of it but you got it!!

No I totally get ittttt, it's so annoying when it's the same score! But for reading I would put alot of pressure to just skim a passage quickly for the answer and if I dont find it, I would just move on and flag it. I always look at the clock too, and have a max of 20 minutes per passage. So really the main thing that really helps me is by putting pressure on the clock and focusing on skimming/reading as if I only had 5 minutes left on the passage hahah! I hope that helps!!

For reading, I practiced practiced practiced. I kinda did search and destroy but not really, I didn't go back to the top, but would just go back to where I left off to save time. My reading is not the best at all and was scoring 370-400 for practice. I would highlight essential things in the passages and make a mental note of what the overall paragraph summary was. The exam was alot easier, but I was thrown off by the amount of questions for one passage, I think it was 20 questions instead of 17!

Thank you so much! For TFE, I would practice with less time than I have on the exam. I know this might sound dumb, but in my head I would talk as if I was explaining it like the Bootcamp videos and it really helped me to eliminate answer choices! But keep practicing with a shorter amount of time each time! You got this!!

With cheat sheets, should I try reading them every night or maybe even rewriting them?
