What do you recommend?" So when your exam is a week out, I really recommend taking a practice exam, like now.
So like as we're looking at this, this is Sunday, so they're thinking like take it in a few days.
Because you wanna give yourself the most buffer time to get the data point and make sure you have time to act on it.
Doing a practice exam so close to your exam, I don't really like that because sometimes you don't have enough time to fix issues.
I said, "I can get you four more points in a week," right? There's a lot of things you can do in a week.
When you take it too close to your actual exam, not only can it cause like a little panic, but you don't have enough time to fix the issues.
And also remember, if you are not scoring at least a hundred questions correct, remember, that's kinda like my general baseline for students, you need to be thinking about moving your exam.
And you have to move it within what like no less than forty-eight hours in advance.
And especially for anyone who has accommodations, you need more time 'cause you have to call and have them switch it around.
So I would just be careful with taking it too close because when you take it a little bit farther away, and I would say ideally I would do a benchmark like two to one and a half weeks to give-- away from your exam to give you more time.
