I would recommend that you continue taking simulation tests (one per 2-3 days). You should analyze your mistakes in each test and try to select question types that you find more challenging. Then try to revise relevant topics and do a few questions of the same type from the Official Guide. If you have done all questions from the 13th edition of the OG, you can use the 12th edition in your further preparation.

Good luck as you prepare for your last week. While the timing may be a bit quicker, I'd encourage you to spend a few moments reading the articles at the link below.

The best thing you can do is spend 30 minutes thinking about how to best structure your next 10 days or so. Here's one additional tip I'd offer. Shut things down on the evening of March 6th. Have a nice dinner and go to bed early on the 7th and be ready to kick some butt on the 8th!!

Good luck.
