I liked having about 3 weeks between, but some people like to go straight into it.

It'll be alright, but a few weeks into the class you need to be getting a grasp on what your weakness is, and start doing at least a section a day 5 days a week (thats what I did, might not work for you). About half way through the class I was doing about 80-90 percents on LR and reading comp, but like 60 percent on logic games. So its easy to see, in a situation like that, that I've got a lot more points to gain by trying to bring up logic games as opposed to working to get another 5 or 10 percent out of the other sections. So probably 3 out of 5 sections I'd do would be logic games, and I'd try to take at least one full test a week (you'll do that anyway in Kaplan). Practice at home, doing sections, and make sure you time them and take it in a realistic environment.

On another note, I've always heard to take a break a couple days before the test. I did that, worked pretty well. Also, you should probably expect to make your average, as opposed to your high score. In my case I scored about 5 points over my average on a practice 4 days before the test, so after taking the real one I felt I bombed it. In reality I got the score that I had gotten on about 50 percent of the ones I'd taken, which was fine. Just don't get discouraged if you feel like you blew it on the real one, barring a breakdown on your part, you'll likely get what you have been getting. Good luck, I'm most of us on here will have our own methods that work, so just pick and choose, find what works for you.
