Solve 30 numerical word problems using a consistent 4-step setup (identify, translate, compute, check)
Reduce average time per verbal item to 45 seconds without dropping accuracy
Review and re-solve every item missed in week 1

A speed-and-accuracy log showing at least 3 timed clerical drills with improving scores
Verbal Ability & Numerical Ability & Analytical Ability & Clerical Ability
Take two full-length timed mock exams under exam-day conditions
Score and classify every error across all four domains
Re-drill the two weakest subskills identified in each mock
Practice pacing so no section is left unfinished
Your checkpoint
Two completed mock exams with score reports and a prioritized remediation list
Verbal Ability & Numerical Ability & Analytical Ability & Clerical Ability
Re-solve all flagged errors from weeks 1-7
