I recommend doing the CC twice. Honestly, but don't do it immediately. At least wait a month or two before doing it again. On the second go, focus on mistakes, and analyzing why you got a question wrong, and what about the question tricked you. Beca…

Hahahaha, it's not good to lie, you know? Happy to give it a read. Message me.

@"Leah M B" said: Oh seriously? Didn't the scholarship only go down by 15% or something? Is that a deal-breaker? If it is, then I respect you for making the practical decision. I'm a dreamer. But yeah, good choice with withdrawing. I'm in a s…

Lol, sorry I made the votes into a tie. I hope someone breaks the tie. My perspective is that it depends. Personally, I have never canceled a standardized score in my life... maybe stupid, but it's almost like a part of my personal belief, to live…

Thanks Leah, you're awesome. What's your situation now? Have you updated the community? I remember you got accepted into UCLA, but wanted to go to Pritzker, right? Are you in 1L right now or planning to retake?
-
Yup, no point in unnecessary thoughts or worries. Just know that you put in the work you put in and that we're all going through the same thing, and just expect to get what your average score is. What will be, will be.

I do it if there's too many variables to remember or if there is a lot of counterposes. Do it if you need it. It doesn't waste too much time, and these days, there aren't very many MBT questions anyway.

Yeah, worse comes to worst, take it for experience. I think this is a common problem for many people, so don't freak out. You'll be surprised by how well the human body can hold things in when forced to. Here's an anecdote: I remember on a previous …

Nope. You didn't miss anything. I also wish they would make the split technique an official lesson in the CC. People know this technique because it was in the forum and JY talks about it in his newest explanations.

What a great story. It's like I just read a motivational story.

The first time I took the LSAT, before I joined 7sage, I did a PT every day before the actual test for weeks, thinking it would put me into the right mindset and prepare my stamina. Little did I know... I ended up getting the worst score I've ever g…

@NotMyName said: Great technical explanation!

@username_hello , this is such a great catch. More people should see this question. Basically anyone who isn't a philosophy student or hasn't studied beyond intro-level formal logic will not be able to understand this question. And honestly, JY does…

@"Pride Only Hurts" said: Lol I thought that time slot game went so smoothly during the test, until I realized assumed the 1hr program was just split into two "programs". Sure enough the set up makes all the difference. Most of the answers a…

PT is probably a bit too much. You should have an idea of what kind of questions you're weakest at right now, from your previous PTs, right? Do whatever your weakest aspect is, and take it easy.

@keets993 said: @Bamboosprout I thought you were seeking advice about whether to delay or not. Make sure to rest the next two days! And attend the call tomorrow Hahaha, I'm a 'just do it' kind of guy, so I never delay! Oh yeah, sounds good.…

@"Simple Man" said: 169 is hands down the best score one can achieve on the LSAT A simple man and a man of refined taste, I see.

@MissChanandler said: Guys I think this is supposed to be a 69 joke @Tom_Tango @LSAT_Wrecker Hahahaha, thanks for the explanation. I hope this wasn't in bad taste. Just wanted to lighten to mood for test takers.

It's possible if you study a solid 5 hours a day (full time), and know how to study well.

I do comparative passages last, since it takes the most time.

My score went up about 7 points over 6 months. I didn't feel like it was a massive jump, but the biggest difference was that I now know why I get every question wrong. @NotMyName said: Pre-7Sage: 148 diagnostic (August 2016). 159 official sco…

It's a sage! Woot! You got it, bud. Why even worry? Just do your research on what you want to learn, apply, and see how it goes. No point wondering what the admissions people think. You've already done all you can do, so what's the point in senseles…

I circle them and leave these questions to the end. That way, you have plenty of time to slowly diagram them. This question isn't too bad though. Do a bunch more of these logic heavy questions and you shouldn't even need to diagram it. Contrapositi…
