What separates a useful mock test from a misleading one

A mock that differs from the real pattern gives you a number that means nothing. What to check before trusting a practice paper.

Re-reading feels productive and is among the weakest ways to revise. Retrieval feels uncomfortable and works.

A plateau after several mocks is usually not a knowledge problem. It is the same handful of errors repeating, unexamined.

Sitting a mock and reading the score is barely half of it. The analysis afterwards is where the marks actually come from.
