"literacy subtest was the one i was most scared of, that reading passage/phonics stuff. did a bunch of practice sets focused just on that and it made a huge difference. passed 118 on my first try which i honestly didnt expect."

"put off studying for weeks then had like 10 days left before my appointment. found mttcexam.com and just did practice questions every night, mostly math since calculators arent allowed on that one. passed all four, still a little shocked tbh."

"the mistake review thing was what actually helped me, seeing which questions i kept missing on the science and social studies section instead of just redoing random practice tests. felt like i was actually improving instead of guessing. glad i didnt just wing it."
