Default Just one ADAPT score!

Well, got ADAPT. First initial test went like this, if i thought I didn't stand a chance I skipped it.

Correct - 24
Missed - 5
Skipped - 6

Good to get that under my belt! It should go uphill from here! Test on the 11th!

Do you guys think it's worth doing the ASM practice exams on top of the ADAPT tests? I've done four of the ADAPT exams so far, not sure if I'm missing anything by not doing the ASM ones.

I don't think you'll lose anything! Its good to get a wide variety of question types throughout the studying. I'm gonna try and get adapt to a 6 then do some ASMs!

Studying is going well, thanks for asking! I'm up to a 6.73 after three ADAPT exams (most of the problems that I missed were merely due to silly mistakes). We are all going to knock this exam out of the park!
