definitely agree with @canihazJD -- "although" can note an important exception and/or qualifier. I wouldn't recommend skipping any word on the LSAT. Reading without it once doesn't hurt, but I'd still return to it and see what it does for the argume…

Remember that the FLEX is made of older, undisclosed sections. The 70s-80s aren't necessarily representative/predictive of what you'll see come test day. Also -- if you come across a difficult game, try to see it as an opportunity to earn points tha…

@Emily2122 said: For each LR question you're trying to get to the right answer as quickly and easily as possible. Why read and analyze a stimulus more than you have to? Basically know what you're reading for. You have mere minutes not hours to…

For all of you on this thread that have read Loophole -- do you (or did you) start with stimulus or question stem first? Ellen really pushes for stimulus first, but I have my doubts.

I recently took 59. I usually score a -3 or under on LR......uh, nope! It was okay because of the curve, but it felt like I got decleated after the test lol.

@"hannah.mehta" go to Resources tab, then to PrepTests. It's at the top of the list.

@canihazJD said: I suppose if you wanted to be extra careful, you could try to book a lower volume test time/day. Whether that would be worth the hassle is an individual call. What do you consider lower volume test times/days? Early morning…

@FindingSage said: LSAC doesn't not give out makeups easily and it is stressful even trying to get one scheduled. This is great advice. This November LSAC offered me a retest, but they gave me 4 hours to respond and the retest would have b…

Like @NathalieS said, logic games are formally known as Analytical Reasoning. The Flex differs from the traditional LSAT in two ways: (1) there is only one LR section which is lame and (2) the experimental section was cut.
-
The MP is often found at the end of the first paragraph, but this isn't always the case. I personally think the most efficient way of finding the MP is viewing the entire passage as an LR stimulus. What is the author trying to prove? Why are they wr…

I've found (in my experience) that if there is a flaw that deals with formal logic, overwhelmingly it's sufficiency vs necessity. Therefore, I tend not to diagram flaw questions and instead focus on comprehending the stimulus. I won't go to the ACs …

Amazing achievement -- congrats @"cat.casa" ! Also, cool username lol

@T14plssss Awesome! I should have been more specific -- what I was really asking was "can you split this into SBGs" which you anticipated and answered. Thanks so much!
-
Atta kid!

@canihazJD this is all incredibly helpful. I agree that I need to both: A. work on short-term reading retention for both LR and RC. B. get more aggressive in LR. Again, I appreciate it!!
-
I'm a finance major as well. I agree with @Brian12693 -- make a quick mention of it under education. I'd expect that law schools would value finance-related work experience more (as they probably don't know much about modeling), but it's worth menti…

I can verify that the retest was last Friday. I know this because they contacted me at 1:00 on Thursday to ask if I wanted to retest. They needed a response by 5:00....I work afternoons and didn't check my personal email until 6:00. Calling in is y…

Congrats! Awesome to hear!

yes -- especially for RC.

You, my friend, are brilliant. Best of luck ya'll!

I've been having the same issue --- I'll even occasionally read a rule wrong on LG. Hope some 7sagers has some tips.

I'm in a similar boat. I'm averaging between a 167-168, but my scores have been very inconsistent. I'm leaning towards moving my test date to November because I still have a majority of the PTs left and have ample time to study. I think it really c…
