Reflections:
VR - Need to Place More of An Emphasis on Reading Comp Q's compared to T/F/CT Q's - Also need to get better at scanning for works and establish a technique that works for me
SJT - Look More Deeply into Appropriateness Questions - Read the GMC
-> Going forward I am going to be practicing only 3 subsections a day in order to delve into them properly

Productivity? - Only did SJT AR and DM today, - I am going to stop doing SJT now and only do a minimum of either 30 Q's or an SJT Mini Mock as i feel like i am doing decent at it. I will shift my focus to VR,QR,AR and DM as i need to get my scores higher!

Productivity? - Definitely felt like i could have done more , I just didn't plan out my timings for the day well enough - Had quite a hard time with AR and VR so definitely need to work on those subsections more.

how do u plan out wht to do each day?

I just do what i feel like most days , if i feel like i haven't done a certain subsection for a while ill prioritize that subsection and i also try to fit in at least one mini mock/subtest mock a day - i am currently not doing as much sjt as i find other subsections harder

Productivity? - Again I feel like i could have done more , but i have been feeling a bit burnt out especially since my mock scores don't feel reflective of the work i have been doing - so decided to take a 'break' day today - Main goal for the end of this week is to increase in scorings for each subsection
