To add to the above, what helped me most with RC was that I quickly realized it needed to be read completely differently than, say, a novel. That's obvious; yes our brains can't just be switched on and off at our own will to read a certain way. Prac…
Decisions, decision. I feel so stupid and aspy spending this much time thinking about pencils. Chances are, most people who do well on this test, just use freaking Ticons.
I'm certainly down to exchange info and see if we can possibly review some stuff, or chat about the CC a few times a week. My issue is an upredictable work schedule, but I'm usually free afternoons during my lunch (2:30pm-4pm) and after work around …
When you do the passages completely untimed, such as during BR, what are your results? Interested to know so I can better diagnose what may be the issue.

Thanks so much for your thorough response. Makes me feel a lot better
No problem, dude. You've really got nothing to worry about. Heck, you have a chance at T13, especially if you're a URM. If you're interested in a reta…

Thank you so much to everyone who replied! I will just be doing 7sage and nixing the PS bibles!
P.S. If you know anyone looking for the trilogy I'm selling all three for $100 (LOL!)

I'm tortured ..... I can't eat, I can't sleep, I can't think at work....
Do I use my first love the Norica? The smooth and sexy, dark writing, pencil of perfection? Or do I use the flashy, heavier, (I like to spin them) better erasing, much longer …

Thank you guys @"Alex Divine" @LSATcantwin @"vanessa fisher" ! Yeah, I'll start tomorrow before my PT by doing some LR, 2 games, and maybe an RC passage too. Should I do this under timed conditions/ try to go quickly or should …

My first semester Freshman year GPA was around a 2.4, but after that semester my GPA has been a 3.8 which still leaves me with just barely over a 3.5 going into my Senior year... (My LSAT score is 164). Will schools take i…
I'd say experiment a bit. I think a full section is overkill. I'm thinking maybe 5 Lr questions, a couple easy games, and an RC passage you've already done. It's just to get the juices flowing so to speak. No need to study before studying, you know?…

Does anybody know if 72-81 will be available on kindle?
Good question. I do not, but I would doubt it at this point with LSAC's cracking down on PDFs. Which is why 7Sage uses protected Edocs that I'm not sure a Kindle would …

Hey! Fellow Buffalonians! I never thought I would see the day! @Sprinkles @_avocado
What are the summers like up there? Any different than, say, Hudson Valley?

For sure. You will do great.
And maybe you can even sneak in a travel somewhere before you start school. This is totally unrelated to this thread, but I really think some good backpacking travel is…

A fellow Buffalonian. Thought I'd never see the day! Have you heard of Erin Decker?? She hosts mock LSATs and LSAT boot camps at UB for like 90 bucks. I've attended, she's really sweet and well informed. She got a 180 on the L…

When I took 3 months off I came back and took a PT and jumped from a 159 to a 168. I was shocked. After some more time I slowly fell back toward a 165, but never dropped back below it after that point.
