[QUOTE="j.s.cox, post: 194241, member: 20454"] I didn't count the number of practice questions I did, so I can't give you a good answer for this. I think it was more important that I was using the questions to guide my revision than doing them for the sake of doing them. I reckon I probably did no more than 50 questions in a day on a regular basis (untimed) because I spent more time trying to see where I was going wrong and where I needed to revise more, or why I got a question wrong and what the correct answer would be. I then added these to my notes. I only did 3 full practice tests, and these were more to gauge if I was spending the correct amount of time on questions and if I was roughly performing where I wanted to be rather than to build stamina. Personally, I think there is a fine line between building stamina and totally burning out because you spent effort on just doing hundreds of questions every day. The latter definitely would not have worked for me. That said, the way that I revised worked for me but it won't work for everyone, so you need to find a method of revision that works for you. If doing hundreds of questions is what you need to do to feel prepared, then that is what you should do. Just remember to source these questions from a variety of providers as each provider's questions tend to follow their own format and you should be prepared to come across questions that are phrased differently than what you are used to. Another thing I did was come back to the same questions I had gotten wrong a few weeks before and try them again. This way I wasn't rote learning the answer to that specific question, but trying to gauge if my knowledge had improved since the last time. I hope that helps :) [/QUOTE]
