We keep meeting students: smart, multiple subscriptions, wrong answer journals, stuck at the same score. They didn't need more. They needed to know exactly what was costing them points.
One rule: diagnosis before prescription. Every student starts with a diagnostic. Every plan is re-ordered. Every session is 1-on-1 with a 170+ scorer.
Group prep exists because it's cheaper to run. Your weak points are yours. Your plan should be too.
The diagnostic is the most valuable part of prep. Charging for it would be like a doctor charging you to hear what's wrong.
If more PTs were the answer, everyone would be at 175. What matters is what you do with each miss: blind review, every week.
A 165 chasing 172 shouldn't sit through 'what is a premise'. Your plan starts where you are.
Half our consult calls end with us telling someone to skip it.
