Which practice habit best demonstrates improvement over time in Form 187R/188R Level D study?

• A. Rushing through questions to finish fast
• B. Recording scores over time to observe trends
• C. Avoiding review to save time
• D. Only practice the easiest questions

Answer: (B)

Monitoring progress by recording scores over time shows whether your study really leads to improvement. When you log each practice session’s score, you create a trackable trend rather than relying on a single result. This data lets you see if accuracy and speed are getting better, identify which areas still need work, and adjust your study plan accordingly. It also helps you set concrete goals and measure whether you’re meeting them.

Rushing through questions to finish fast can reduce accuracy and won’t reveal long-term gains. Avoiding review means you miss feedback that tells you what to study next. Practicing only the easiest questions gives a skewed sense of ability and doesn’t uncover weaker areas that need work. Recording scores over time directly addresses these issues by providing clear evidence of progress.
