Checkpoints + Other Questions

Hi all!
I have recently purchased the Math Methods Units 3&4 Cambridge Checkpoints. To my understanding, checkpoints are really useful when it comes to SAC time. However, I'm curious as to how early I should begin going through them. I'd love to start doing them now since I could really use some practice, but I'm afraid I'll regret it as it comes to SAC time as I will have already completed the questions or I'll remember the answers. Should I start them now or wait and try to find some other questions in the meantime?
Also, asides from checkpoints, where can I access questions similar to checkpoints that are relevant to the order of the study design?
Thanks!  :)

I'm not a big fan of checkpoints for application type subjects for this reason - i.e. spoiling VCAA exams.

Since checkpoints are actual VCAA questions, for the most part, I would leave them until at least sacs. (personally would not do them outside exam conditions though - which is not feasible when using checkpoints).

As for other resources - you can just get a bunch of commercial exams and answer the questions you are able to. Then come back later if you have learnt a new topic to complete more questions. Although you would need to be looking for questions rather than having it set out for you.
