In Theo’s words
I sit two official tests a year so my pacing advice matches the test students take.
Sessions run on your own score report, not on a generic curriculum.

The score sat still through two attempts on my own. Working the four question types I kept missing, over and over, moved it a full band on the third try.

Four practice papers, each one scored and walked through inside the same week. My daughter came out of the last one in the top 10%.
