Day 22 — Mid-Marathon Mock Test 1 🎯

Phase III · Mock & Mastery · Full Test · Day 22 of 30 · ⏱ ~2 hours

📍 You are here: Phase II complete → Phase III begins · Mock Test 1 → Day 23 · Mock analysis + Speaking workshop

Phase III is about putting it all together under pressure. Today is your first full, timed, four-section mock — the halfway checkpoint that shows you exactly what to sharpen in the final stretch.

🎯 Today's goal: Complete all four sections back-to-back under real timing, with no pauses.

You're done when: you've finished the full mock and submitted your Speaking + Email + Discussion.

⏰ Step 1 — Warm-Up: Test-Day Timing

💡Pro Tips

  • Don't stop to fix things mid-section. A mock builds stamina and pacing — flag and move on, just like the real test.
  • Note your energy dips. Where did focus fade? That's where to build endurance before Day 29.
  • Score honestly. Use the ETS band descriptors — an inflated score today costs you on test day.
  • Rest after. A full mock is tiring; review tomorrow with fresh eyes, not tonight.
