Yeah, Alex pretty much covered it.
My feelings about the bibles are well documented at this point, lol. I’m starting to almost feel bad about it, so I’ll keep it brief. So, definitely don’t use the LG bible. There is room for the LR bible to be …

But apparently, every so often, I do in fact miss a quantifier. I wouldn't have recognized I have a tendency to make this error if I hadn't taken the test twice and graded it both times. Sure upon BR I would have noticed I missed the…
This method seems like it would reinforce the worst of my psychological tendencies. I find myself always wanting to minimalize my errors by calling them careless mistakes, which they almost never are. The inflated second score would be too tempting …
Nice! Most people actually see a decrease in the 70s series PTs, so looks like you’re avoiding some of the more contemporary traps. I definitely don’t think it was luck, but it’s such a big jump, I do think it’s possible it’s an outlier. The real…
Anybody heard about Pilot FriXion pens? Apparently they use ink that's supposed to disappear with heat. I was looking at this notebook which mentioned it was microwave safe, lol, so I kept reading and it was apparently supposed to be reusable. It…
So one thing I did for awhile, which is admittedly a little extreme, is I completely rearranged my sleep cycle. I was working 6am - 2pm and I shifted my sleep schedule so that I'd sleep from about 4pm to midnight. Then I'd wake up and study fresh un…
Unfortunately I have a lot of experience with this, haha.
So first of all, don’t panic. This is very important. If you panic, you’re going to miss far more questions than you have to because of such a mistake. So don’t do that.
Beyond that, it …

motivation is fleeting. Discipline is reliable. Discipline is what sets the top 1% apart from the other 99%. We must all suffer one of two things: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret.
A thousand times this!
And yeah, time a…
Yeah, I definitely get what you’re saying with often and most. That’s probably a deliberate trap they were setting. You can apply it to more obvious ideas and it becomes a little clearer. So, something like:
People often run marathons.
Most peop…
Yeah, twice is about all most people can handle productively. It’s important to remember that taking a PT is actually a very small part of the PT process. The BR is much more important, and addressing the weaknesses the PT/BR expose is even more i…

Okay cool, I just always want to make sure that people just give up hope on achieving such a score, simply because they don't think it's possible.
Lol. That's @danielznelson for you! Always making sure people just give up hop…
Actually, it’s not great for the Wopex. The Blackwing is designed for cedar pencils and doesn’t handle the heavy composite material of the Wopex very well. Wopex needs something a little more blunt force. The Staedtler Noris works really well for…
Yeah, powerscore didn’t do it for me either. It’s great for little tricks with clever, trademarked names; but that really doesn’t get you very far, as you seem to have discovered. And LR is relatively okay compared to Games which is particularly l…
Sorry @montaha.rizeq . Probably going to be posting lots of spoilers now actually. Guess you’ll just have to stay off the forums for awhile, just to be safe;)
Yeah, @MrSamIam , they’re often so far off that it actually makes what is supposed to be an easy question really challenging. It’s really funny though, I enjoy stumbling across them.

Now I see everyone here as a member of my LSAT family. Not only has 7Sage been an incredible resource for studying for the LSAT, but each and every member has been a part of my support network, whether they realize it or not!

Right on @Coreyy02 . I always say LSAT is about much more than logic. If the LSAT tested us on pub trivia, it probably wouldn’t suffer a significant decrease in accurately predicting who will succeed in law school. I really think the intangibles …
Yeah, I’ve got a similar dilemma with my topics. I’m not sure what to do. I’m torn about the quality/interest of the narrative versus the relevance/inspiration of the subject matter. I think of them like little movies. With movies, there’s Oscar…
Yeah some of those older tests have some really funny quirks. I particularly like all the computer and tech questions. There's one in 36 that argues that online news is going to hurt newspaper sales. And it's a weaken question, lol. It's intended to…
@TheLoftGuy , I think it would be fine to work through in tandem with the curriculum or afterwards. Use it to reinforce the curriculum, so however you think is the most effective for your learning style.
Some day @montaha.rizeq .
@zcxlwj , there isn't a specific order, but there is a general philosophy for the schedule. Different eras of the test have their own particular quirks. Every PT is useful, but generally, the more recent the test, the clos…
This is a trap they can set on a lot of different questions. I’m not sure how it’d come up in a RRE question, but I can’t really think of anything else where it would be at all difficult to set an extreme language trap. The fundamental flaw with e…
