thinking about what works best for them and building a plan around that
practicing with full-length tests to iterate their study plan
creating their own study schedule and breaking down big topic areas
studying with others, following along with a course
getting a feel for the pace, timing , and structure
When should I take the test?
...
You might choose to write the test more than once if you aren’t confident with your score. To assess your candidacy, some programs will use your most recent attempt, some your highest attempt and some may consider all attempts. Consult the program-specific website for further details.
