For the first 10 questions of the section, I would almost turn my brain off and think to myself "The answer is going to be the most obvious of the answer choices. You aren't going to need to diagram (for the most part) or spend three minutes thinkin…

The score on a single preptest shouldn't matter to you as much as you seem to think it does. Even the best in the world have off days where they don't perform well. I'd analyze the mistakes you made and why, maybe you didn't get a good sleep the nig…

Find a list of all of them and create your own examples. It might be easier if you can put them in terms you're familiar with.

Personally, I find I've progressed the most by wrong answer journaling, as well as getting enough sleep the days leading up to a test. I found I was also getting some questions I changed wrong, so I stopped changing my answer from one I wasn't sure …

As far as I'm aware, it's the exact same test. I'm living abroad and taking it in April.

Because you're new, I would. wait until you've gone over and learned a good chunk of LR question types. It won't necessarily hurt you to start drilling, but it would be like learning a few rules of tennis, then going out and spending an hour hitting…

What law schools are you applying to? A 165 is a very competitive score for many law schools, even some in DC. I'm not sure what your GPA is, but if your early grades are that bad, you might want to write an addendum explaining that. But if you've n…

@ToniT220 Yep! It seems like you've got it now! Lawgic is a one way street, you can't go backwards (except for 'some' statements, but if you haven't reached that part yet, don't worry about it)
-
In addition to the previous comments, because you're just starting out, do a few passages untimed. Get a feel for what its like reading the passages and what sort of questions you'll be expected to answer. And once you start seeing your score go up,…

When it comes to a lawgic chain, you can never draw conclusions going from right to left, everything must go left to right. You seem to have trouble understanding sufficiency and necessity, so I'll include my own examples that might help. "Bob live…

It might not work for everyone, but I went from having a 3.6 GPA after my first year to graduating with two majors and a 3.9 GPA simply by changing my mindset and approach to grades. I began approaching classes with the mindset of 'I'm going to do m…

Like the comment above says, doing a wrong answer journal will help with this, and even with other questions you may get wrong. I'm not sure how you do on time, but typically I aim to be done with the first 10 questions in 10 minutes, ideally the fi…

The PowerScore LSAT and the Thinking LSAT podcasts seem like good options

If you're close to where you want to be, no point in hiding it. If you're well below, it might be worth considering. However, as far as I'm aware, schools will still be notified that you took that test, just that you chose to hide it.

It might just take some time to sort it out in your mind. Exact same thing happened to me, all the strengthen/weaken questions and the strengthen/weaken EXCEPT questions flowed together. As you're learning, take a second to understand exactly what t…

https://www.usnews.com/education/blogs/law-admissions-lowdown/articles/how-why-to-write-a-law-school-addendum You might want to write an addendum regarding your grades, basically explain what you said here and that the courses you took as a 15 year…

Can't go wrong with asking now. I'll be applying in the fall and have already asked one professor to write a letter for me. Even if it's just an email saying 'I'll be applying to law school in the fall, would you be willing to write a letter of reco…

I'm a Waseda student planning on taking the LSAT over the next few months
-
Like the previous person said, law schools predominantly care about undergrad GPA and LSAT scores. That's essentially 90-95% of the application. The median LSAT at Northeastern is a 163, so if that's where you want to go, that's what you have to aim…

Aside from the tutor, what studying have you done and are you doing? Have you gone through the 7Sage syllabus?
