I just took the digital LSAT in July. Each test taker gets a test booklet that has about 12 blank pages which can be used for any part of the test. You are also still able to bring a pencil. I also use scratch paper to oc…
RC is my worst section, too. I used to try and read quickly, make one or three word summaries for each paragraph, and then do the questions. I found I would have to go back for everything, and was still missing so many questions. It didn't work well…
I think that is awesome that you found a method that helps you study, but going forward with the digital testing, we wont have highlighters anymore during the tests. Just a pen, I think. It's something to consider when studying. If you need that hi…

@fycw2068 - Can you post a pic of the stylus they gave?
This is what I got at my testing (not my photo tho)

Everyone makes this rookie mistake. I even did. Do not take the test first. Do not take the test after just minimal study, either. I know what you're thinking. You're a smart cookie. Always aced ever test you ever encountered. Never had issues in s…

Was the proctoring any different for the digital version?
Sort of. There was less for them to do. There really were no forms or anything to fill out like before (bubbling in your name, test booklet #, etc). You just had to…

3- The tablet was very responsive and you had underline, and three highlight choices which made RC so much more colorful and fun. I was able to highlight AO in one color Critic in another and it honestly isn't time consumi…
Always, always, always take 30 seconds and double check that you got the rules right in LG. I didn't on a game and in my rush, I misread something. Slow down a little; it'll save you in the long run.
I was surprised how close you were able to get this tester to the real thing! Well done. There were a few differences, mentioned earlier by other posters (the instructions being part of the time, etc). That 5 minute pop up really was pretty distur…

Not getting to half of the questions makes me think that you don't have a very solid grasp on the fundamentals, so perhaps you would be best served by trying to identify which question types are giving you the most trouble and …
I liked it, for the most part. I felt it really saved time between bubbling, flipping pages, etc. that I would have had to do with the paper version. The timer was right there on the screen, and everything functioned pretty well. I royally screwed u…

I agree. I think that maybe there were 40-50ish experimental questions that they sprinkled into experimental sections. It seems like everyone has some but not necessarily total overlap of questions! I for one am certain …

I would agree with the above. In my post, I do not mean "understand" as understanding the subject matter. Understand what you are reading. Can you tell me who/what the players are and how they relate? (Dude A thinks experts are wrong. Experts B and …
A NA is an "unstated premise" that supports the conclusion. It's something stupid basic that we all just take for granted, but is absolutely necessary for that argument to exist at all.
I would think a NA might be something like "Aunt Barbara did n…
Time yourself, but don't look at it. Understand and practice first. Your time will probably be awful at first. No biggie. When you feel like you've got a good grasp on it, then do timed sections. But if you don't have a good understanding of it, wha…

I was in a similar situation a month ago when I started studying too. What helped me was actually engaging with the content rather than trying cold approaches like diagramming everything. Most of the time for those questions…
Yes, Oct 1991 game 4 is primarily an in-out, but with categories.
Can you give us an example of a specific question that stops you? In the case of Oct 1991, just the number will do.
Drink very little during your break. Finish your water after the test. I found that there are Jelly Belly jelly beans that contain caffeine and electrolytes, so if you need a pick me up, I'd suggest something like that vs a soda or drink.

Why not? See what your initial blind review is and see how you grow. My first pt was rough, and the blind review was almost the same. A couple months later after doing the cc and studying, there was nearly a 10 point separation between my pt and my …

If you’re doing it because you think it will look good on your resume/application don’t bother.
Second this thought. Do it because it's important to you, and if it's not important, don't. It looks good on paper, but…
Yep. Eventually, certain things just start clicking. You just start seeing how to lay the boards out.

My spouse has an honest-to-god learning disability. It is correctable, but growing up, they didn't catch it until he was well into high school. Since reading and writing is pretty hard set by your teens, he still has issues sometimes. Not to a ridic…
Yep. Around 2 years or so. I tried to study for this while working on college, with overloaded semesters and adding a minor in my senior year. I had to choose, because college work was eating me alive and I wasn't seeing improvements with my LSAT si…
