    @dennisgerrard We can discuss the long version en francais ;) But the short version is, I took twice, got ok scores, decided to take a summer off to study completely (with drilling and a new approach to RC) and scored 174 in september.

    Bonjer mone amy, jay parl fantsay avek un axon amerycan.

    But really, I spoke decent French once upon a time. If you're struggling and need some pointers, IM me. Prelim advice would be to do 4 things: learn 20 verbs and 20 nouns every week, watch French movies, go talk to weirdos in French chat rooms and eke your way through a few articles from Le Monde.

    Heads up, tons of perverts in French chats. Don't use a screen name that can in any way be interpreted in a feminine light. When I was a kid, I had pet turtles, so I used "tortue." Well, that's a noun of feminine gender in French. Big mistake.

    On that note, I learned early how uncomfortable life might be for women. That was the Internet, but I think it just brought out the predatory appetites women sense in so many men all the time. Truly disturbing.

    Can you elaborate a bit more on what you mean by swapping LSAT sessions so both I and the other students know what they're getting into? :P

    I took french from 7th grade until senior year of college and I can speak it pretty well. Unfortunately, if is one of those things where if you don't use it, you lose it... Maybe I'll brush up a bit and we can have a convo in French or something. Are you a natural francophone?

    new approach to RC? I'm curious. Want to elaborate?
