It has taken me over 900 games to get to the -2/-0 level consistently. The last thing I have been ironing out are the rule substitution questions. I did the PT 1-40ish games between 5-10 times each. Games that really got me the first time around …
No, I think what the stimulus is saying is that if positive then we can "estimate within a month" when that person actually got the virus. The concept is confusing and the stimulus does little to elevate that confusion but what I took this to mea…
This is an interesting question and something that the LSAT does quite often on contemporary tests. It requires a close reading and understanding of the stimulus and really nothing more in my estimation. No fancy conditional chains or negation tes…
@Coffeecoffeecoff if I had to bet I would bet that the issue here is the timing issue. Maybe not specifically speaking time in and of itself but giving questions the proper amount of time to answer them correctly. This problem emits of a whole ran…
Ok, as sort of a general rule from the onset, I would not register until you are absolutely ready to take the exam. Takes are precious on this exam. You did allude to the fact that you don't have years to be studying, which I totally understand, b…
@twssmith you are a valued and incredible member of this community and one of the kindest people I have ever come across. I wish you the best of luck my friend.
I would say no, don't quit if this is what you want to do. But any serious strategy moving forward is going to have to include a real deep look at what specifically went wrong with this last take. What was your distribution of missed questions? H…
Before we get into the details of your question, much of what you have posted is pulled directly from the exam which is a violation of the terms and conditions. Please be careful of this moving forward.
As sort of a general rule, I would be very weary about selectively skipping parts of an LR argument based on the appearance of a single word. There is simply too much room for that formula to go wrong in my estimation.
What I would do instead is…
To answer your question abstractly: yes, sometimes I have had to draw out multiple boards for one question and sometimes I can rely on previous work that I have left standing. I just drew out 4 boards to answer a question on the circle game from PT…
For me it really is the human quality of the law. I know that sometimes that gets lost in the actual day-to-day nuances of the profession and that the human quality of the law is often considered a very tiring and arduous undertaking, but it is sti…
I remember when I went back and did sections from the pre 40 era and it was a real breakthrough for me when I could stay entirely focused for a single section. It took awhile to get that process to 2-4 sections but these things progress. Good luck…
It's subjective and multifaceted in my estimation. You have to try things out to see what works for you my friend. Have you tried drilling single sections from pre-40 PTs just to get your timing and focus down? Try drilling pre-40 single sections…
Yes, it has happened to me. What you have touched on above is something that is pretty normal actually: a combination of losing focus and time pressures forcing mistakes on us. The LSAT tests our ability to stay focused. It is an intense exam.
Yeah, 9 is a MBT meaning that in all worlds there will be something that given our initial conditions and the specifications of the question: will hold. The trickiest things to eliminate in MBT questions in the games are CBTs that have popped up in…
For some reason the LSAT has written several questions on turtles and I have liked them all. Overall, I liked the question on the goblin fern. A really, really tough almost impenetrable necessary assumption question. TBH, I enjoy questions on nat…
Hello and welcome! This community is one of the most helpful and caring around. Don't hesitate to reach out with any questions you have regarding any specifics on the exam.
Typically speaking, 2 months is not enough time to get a score that a s…
18-30 is really a wide range. A full answer to your question would be (for me) contingent upon several factors: level of debt you are comfortable with, scholarships you can get from the 18-30 ranked school, what you want to do with your law degree …
The pattern my friend in both of your questions was not looking at precisely what the question stem is asking us to set up. This is something great to isolate. For question 10 your board did not follow the conditions of the question. For question…
Question 12 is a simple oversight that can be approached from one of two angles. We have 6 total pieces that we are placing. If H,I,M,N are all speaking something in common that is not Spanish, then by definition the absolute max we can have speak…
So for your first question (question 10) you cannot have 4 of the tourists speaking Turkish under the constraint that L and N speak the same language. L is stationary in group Z-in order for L to fulfill what the question wants us to fulfill with L…
