Personally, I've started alternating between newer and older PTs. Like you, I'm worried that if I wait too long, I won't be able to learn anything from the most recent PTs. I'll be doing the tests in the 60s between now and the beginning of Septembe…
I went from a 159 diagnostic to a 175 on my first test after completing the 7Sage curriculum. I'd enthusiastically recommend the course -- if you've tried prep books and they're not working for you, why not try something new?
The PrepTest numbering system is not exclusive to this website -- it's the system used by LSAC, so you'll see it in use pretty much everywhere. If your friend is struggling with logic games, she should really check out the LG explanations on this si…
The habit that's helped me the most: when I reach the end of a paragraph, I pause, look away from the page, and come up with a quick summary of the main point of the paragraph and it's relationship to the rest of the passage. This means that I spend…
@brainwvs: I hear you! I totally bombed game 4 on PT 41 yesterday, and I had a hard time concentrating on the next section because I was so wound up about how badly I'd done on that one game. I think it's crucial to remind yourself that getting a fe…

I always read the stem first because find it helpful to know what I need to be most attentive to when reading the stimulus: is it the argument structure (for AP questions)? Is it a flaw in the reasoning (flaw/parallel flaw)? Is it the support that t…
Pseudo-sufficient assumption questions ask you to identify an assumption that is *almost* sufficient to conclude that the reasoning in the stimulus is valid. Alone, it can't take the argument to the point of complete validity, but it gets most of th…
I also work full time and am writing in September (though in my case, for the first time). My strategy is to study on the weekends (PTs on both Saturday and Sunday mornings; blind review in the afternoon) and to study in my office for a couple of ho…
I had the proctor malfunction while I was writing a PT. I think I stopped at about the right time, but it definitely threw me off my game (and I might have gone over by a couple of minutes).
I'm going to use the offline file from now on!
