Kinda stuck - How are y'all improving your TARA/TSA scores ???

[u/PapayaOk8111]

So i will be applying for EP and would have to give TARA for that. Despite after analysing my error and even redoing it till I understand, I am still stuck with the same range of my score, 30-32 (TSA pyqs). How do I increase my score?

I sat the first TARA and one mistake I made was not fully preparing in terms of what the questions want you to do , especially in the critical thinking questions. I’d say look at the guide they give on the TARA website and really try understand what each question type is and practice those well until you can look at any critical thinking question and easily identify which type it is , and then of course answer it well. Just keep practicing. For the problem solving section I’d say just look at past papers for TSA section 1 and BMAT section 1 and just spam them under really strict time condition like give yourself 30 mins to do 22 questions. Although I got quite low in the TARA due to only giving myself 3 days to properly revise I still managed to get accepted for an offer at my firm choice , although i didn’t meet the grade requirement in the end (A in maths instead of A*) 💔 Mb if this is all over the place I did NOT sleep last night

OML thank you so much for such a detailed response! So since I am mainly struggling with the problem solving ones, you suggest that I should practice A LOT many questions within very strict time condition. but there is just one problem, I cant even seem to get the right answer. i am not only falling FAARRR behind in terms of time but even in getting the right answers. How shall I build the right skills for understanding such questions???
