Re: Group 3 @Julia Great choice! One of the most virtuosic. Orli spends quite a bit of time on this one in the course, so that should help kickstart things for you.

Re: Group 2 @Angela Nice to hear from you. Let me know if you want any help choosing a Sonata. You're also welcome to choose a single movement from a sonata, and it doesn't need to be a first movement!

Re: Group 4 @Heidi I'm sure Orli would help you with the Adagio, but I also think it's a good idea to work on a movement from a Sonata. And yes - you can just be beginning it and it doesn't need to be complete.
