Reason being, I have hit that button too many times already.
I have the exam on Monday the 22nd, which gives me one more week of solid studying.
I plan on applying by round 2, and have read that you should try to finish up the exam by October to focus on essays, and the application.
My goal is a 730+, my highest practice test has been 680. Need a solid score, to offset my GPA, so won't quit until I get it.
My worst case scenario is to take it, and if I don't get the score I want, I give it a go again in early December.
I am trying to formulate the best attack strategy. I have asked this question in the past but with a larger time frame, so wanted to pitch my plan for critique.
1) Plan on taking 2 more practice tests, review them in their entirety, and spot correct the weak points.
2) Go over all the OG problems I had got wrong and spot correct what I missed.
3) Brush through fundamentals.
I was planning on using the OG Archer from Manhattan every morning for 2 hours as speed is definitely one of my weak points, do you believe that would beneficial?
I also plan on sleeping 6 hours a night and getting up early to get some quality time in. If I can power out this week and hit success, that cancel for a reschedule would be the best decision I made so far (outside of going back to school!). I know for some people. this strategy of cramming does not work and I don't like to do it either, but thats the situation I have given myself, and I will do what I have to in this time frame.
Appreciate your input.

Your 1,2,and3 is good. Include some breathing exercise or some 15-20 job/running to keep your mind calm and blood flow normal.
Give the exam as if you would score 750+. This extra confidence would add 10-20 to your score.

Kiddah! Thanks for the exercise advice.
It definitely helps to clear your head for 20-30 mins a day.
