Bumping this for a friend.

I've been meaning to update this for a long time! Things got pretty bleak at exam time, and I really feel like I should send an update from the other side. I do want to preserve the bleak parts, because providing a sincere, unguarded, contemporaneou…

This is a really good question, and for the most part the answer is that study strategies don't change significantly. But I do think that it's important to understand how the Flex format changes the calculus and what the starting calculus is in the …

Diagnosing problem areas is a really intensive process. Diagnostics are really easy to overlook-- most people think they're just trying to get the right answer in review, but it really really isn't. You always have to find a meaningful answer for wh…

You guys never stop amazing me.

I typically return after finishing the whole section. To spend more time on the first round, I always want to be able to define a specific reason why I expect to do any better than on my initial attempt. For RC and LG, I normally can’t do that. Some…

@oliviamoss5 said: I chose to actively learn the material instead of putting random answers or something along those lines. This is well put and, all things considered, just seems to be the most natural reading of the situation. Intentions m…

All valid points @10000019 . Re-reading the original post, I no longer see anything about punishments being at all random, so I don't know where that understanding came from. My feelings about it really hinged on that. I'm also reading it a little d…

Particularly problematic is the randomization of punishment. Are you saying that some were punished and others were not based on a randomized process of selection? Because that’s not okay if that’s what happened. If you’ve been singled out for punis…

You're very welcome @AttJazz08 . So many of us discover that this is a far more difficult process than we anticipated. Though waiting another year is daunting all by itself, there is also a challenge to our egos and intellects that is often implica…

Oh wow, this is excellent! Congrats on everything, and I hope your baby girl has arrived safely! Glad the strategy gave you a framework to work in. The LSAT is stressful enough without any additional factors. I can’t even imagine trying to test und…

In the CC and in early PTing, question type drills are really important and valuable. After awhile, you’ve got to be careful though. “Why did I struggle with this” is the most important question you’ll ever ask in your LSAT studies, and I believe th…

FPing by game type is ideal at first, but I think at a certain point it is best to transition to doing sections. IDing the game type can often be a challenge all by itself, and when you drill by type, that challenge is removed from the equation. I r…

Oh that sucks. I used to live across a thin wall from a shitty jazz band. I’d take construction and fighting any day over that, lol, but still sounds pretty terrible. Got to just decide whether you can or you can’t. Make the call and commit to the d…

Yeah, there’s a lot of foundational stuff in LR. It’s structured very deliberately, so best to follow the curriculum.

Happening soon!

To offer a perspective from another tutor: If no effort was made to reschedule or cancel sessions--to make any contact whatsoever--until months later, charges of fraud and theft are wildly inappropriate. As someone who relies on income from tutori…

@"the great white shark" I use scratch paper and a Grouping Game chart. First column corresponds to what had been my single circles on the paper test--the highest priority questions to return to. Second column is what used to be my double circles--…

I'm pretty sure both of these are SA. I guess the second one is technically a PSA since it's a principle, but same thing for the most part.

@jmarmaduke96 said: Thank you both! This is a fantastic opportunity! I think there are a couple of questions that would be interesting to go over: 1: How to triage questions for round 2? For example - If I have two skipped questions …

Talk soon!

Hey everyone, I’ve been without internet for most of the past week, but glad so many of you were able to benefit, and happy to do a follow up session for those unable to attend and for those wanting to go in greater depth. To add to @Mike_Ross ’s a…

See you Monday! Flaw questions are such an important category that will get us into a lot of great foundational matters. Really looking forward to this one.

Welcome back!
