Content = material. The concepts covered. Strategies are about answer elimination, not about which one is right. When one hits a ceiling with strategy use it's because there is a deficiency in the content somewhere (idioms, sentence structure, algebra, geo, etc.)

Getting it over with includes achieving your target score. We all have/had the anxiety and desire to be done with it, but that doesn't mean cutting prep short and not giving prep its due time.

Use the details results from a diagnostic practice test to figure out WHY you're getting X problem wrong.

If you have not been doing this, use an error log to track your progress.

The timer tool developed by Walker is quite useful for this:
