To time or to not time- when PRACTICING?

Simple question- I just need to know–> when I am practicing for the writing sections, should I Time myself NORMALLY, LESS than usualy, or not at all. When I am practicing, and i time myself normally, I have 1 minute to spare, but the time pressure causes me to overlook hidden “REPEATED RULES” like i think its S-v agree, but rushing a little makes me oversee it’s actually a faulty comparison. Some told me reduce the time, but won’t that cause more errors. And another said no time at all, work on accuracy first until 800, then start timing(Which makes the most sense to improve). So far on the 3 writing practice sections i have done, i got 6 wrong, 6 wrong, and then 8 wrong–trying to find someone to acclaim to a certain method and was in my situation, or similar.

Forgot one more option: or should i time myself normally to finish all the questions, but when times up, i still keep working to check and redo any unsure ones.
