Build a 300-item vocabulary log from a self-chosen word list, tagging each entry with part of speech, a Chinese gloss, and one original example sentence.

Classify every logged word by the error it causes (confusable pair, collocation, register, or word-form), so you can see which category dominates your list.

Drill 40 high-frequency confusable pairs (e.g., affect/effect, rise/raise, economic/economical) and write a one-line rule that distinguishes each pair.

Diagram 30 sentences into subject, predicate, object, and modifier slots, marking every finite verb and its subject to expose agreement errors.

Take a 25-item diagnostic covering vocabulary and grammar, score it, and record every miss with a one-sentence reason.

Extend the vocabulary log to 500 entries, adding collocation partners (verb+noun, adjective+noun) for 100 of the most exam-frequent items.

Write 60 original sentences that each use one logged word in a context a working adult would plausibly write, then self-correct for word form and agreement.

Master the tense-aspect grid: produce 20 sentences contrasting simple past, present perfect, and past perfect in the same scenario.

Correct 40 deliberately faulty sentences for subject-verb agreement, pronoun reference, and parallel structure, and label each error type.

Complete two timed 20-item vocabulary-in-context sets and review every distractor to explain why it is wrong.

Reduce the top five recurring grammar errors from weeks 1-2 to zero in a fresh 30-sentence writing sample.

Build a connective map of 40 discourse markers (contrast, cause, concession, addition, sequence) with the sentence position and punctuation each requires.

Complete six 10-blank cloze passages, justifying each answer with the grammatical or lexical clue in the surrounding sentence.

Write 15 sentences that each require choosing between two near-synonymous connectives, and state the logic that decides the choice.

Rewrite 20 of your own earlier sentences to improve cohesion using the connective map.

Read four 400-word passages under a 12-minute limit each and answer 5 questions per passage, marking where in the text each answer is supported.

Categorize every reading miss as main-idea, detail, inference, vocabulary-in-context, or author-attitude, and count which category costs you most.

Practice the three-pass reading routine (skim for structure, read for detail, verify against the question) on two passages and time each pass.

Complete four mixed cloze sets that combine grammar blanks and vocabulary blanks, and note which blank type you miss more often.

Summarize each of the four passages in two sentences to confirm you extracted the main idea rather than isolated details.

Complete three timed 25-question reading sets and cut your per-question average below 90 seconds while keeping accuracy above 70 percent.

Translate 30 single English sentences into Chinese, focusing on passive-to-active shifts, attributive clause restructuring, and article omission.

Compare your translations against a revised second draft and log every change under one of five categories: word choice, word order, omission, addition, or register.

Build a 60-item glossary of exam-frequent formal English terms with their settled Chinese equivalents.

Translate one 150-word expository paragraph and check it for Chinese fluency by reading it aloud without consulting the source.

Translate two 200-word passages under a 30-minute limit each, then annotate every sentence where the Chinese departs structurally from the English source.

Draft four timed 150-word essays (one opinion, one problem-solution, one chart description, one argument) each within 25 minutes.

Build and memorize a five-slot essay template (position, two supports, concession, conclusion) and test it on two unseen prompts.

Self-score each essay against a four-point rubric covering task response, organization, sentence variety, and lexical range, and rewrite the weakest paragraph.

Translate 20 Chinese sentences back into English to expose gaps in the vocabulary you can recognize but not produce.

Run one full-length mock exam under strict timing and score each domain separately.

Review every mock miss and assign it to a domain and an error cause, then rank the causes by frequency.

Rewrite the two lowest-scoring mock sections from scratch and re-score them to confirm the fix.

Refresh the vocabulary log to 600 entries by pruning items you now produce correctly and adding items missed on the mock.

Write two more timed essays using the five-slot template, targeting the sentence-variety weakness identified in week 6.

Take a second full-length mock and compare domain scores against week 7 to confirm improvement in the two weakest areas.

Do a final timed pass of one reading set, one translation, and one essay back to back to rehearse exam-day stamina.

Condense the vocabulary log and connective map into a two-page review sheet of only the items you still miss.

Rehearse the essay template and translation checklist until each can be reproduced from memory in under three minutes.

Set a per-section time budget for exam day based on your mock pacing data and write it down.
