The week after the official is a wait, not a new study plan. Write down what felt off while it is fresh, then stop until scores post. Do not start a retake syllabus on Sunday.
What to write down
- Sections that ran out of time.
- Types you knew you guessed.
- Whether you would sit the same date again.
When scores land: read the score report.
The bottom line
Capture notes, then live your week. The retake decision waits for the PDF.
Start practicing
Start with a free diagnostic, then drill your weak spots with 15-question quizzes and track how you're doing across Reading, English, and Math. Compare plans whenever you're ready to go further.
