Maybe "luck" isn't exactly the right word for what we're talking about. Luck isn't actually a real thing, so technically, it's never the right word for anything. What I mean when I say luck here is that no one, not even consistent 180 scorers, can p…

Yeah, at least I had both pinkies free! Not ideal.

@twssmith He lived like it was 1999, and that's the best any of us can hope to do.

That's an interesting question @only3months , it's not something I've thought about. Of course, ideally you'd read the stimulus quickly, fully grasp it, and then burn through the answer choices similarly. Short of that, it's going to depend on the …

Yeah, kindles got to get their shit together with the formatting. It's the same thing with Shakespeare. Completely unreadable.

I think ultimately the things you do to push higher from 170 are the same things you do to push higher from a 160 or anything else. You just have to do them better and for longer. When you PT, simulate testing conditions as meticulously as you can…

Nothing wrong with late night. I like Colbert and Fallon. And even though no one watches it, Last Call with Carson Daly is the best of them all, believe it or not.

Oh good, I was wondering how this was going to work without you T!

@westcoastbestcoast Most of us are, more or less, invested in using our PT scores as diagnostics. Where am I? What am I scoring? These are very natural questions and no one is completely immune from these concerns. But the truth is, they don’t re…

So first, also agreed with @"Nicole Hopkins" . Chill out on them PTs. @westcoastbestcoast said: Should I just re-do the PT 70s exam? I haven't BR-ed them because I was urged against so by a tutor I once had before I signed up with 7sage. Second,…

Yeah, word, like an affirmation of approval. Anyway, I got you down!

Does this mean we should be drinking beer during this webinar? I think if we all showed up 3 or 4 deep, that could really add an interesting element to this one that would really make it stand out from past webinars.
-
Oh wow, that is a crazy ass question. So yeah, here I think I’m just going to think "ok that’s really weird" and then read the stim to see what’s going on. I think it’s okay to maybe stumble a little here, because they’re presenting the informatio…

Yeah @quinnxzhang all this stuff is really fascinating. Man, if I were living in an apartment with my mom, it’d be tough to turn down all that prize money!

@GordonBombay said: that gnawing nervous energy. The worst.

Word @sora.ees .

@BruiserWoods have you heard of the Millennium Problems? claymath.org/millennium-problems $1,000,000 to anyone who can solve one. I don’t know much math, but if you’ve got any interest in things like Fermat’s last theorem, they can be fun to rea…

I like to simulate test day as closely as I can. So, up at 6, shower and all that, breakfast, coffee. A few random games, a LR section or two, then some green tea and relaxation (My version of meditation). Then some music. I’d like to add in a q…

Thanks for the suggestions @quinnxzhang , I’ll check those out!

@apublicdisplay "The Secret Rules of Modern Living: Algorithms"

Haha @BruiserWoods. What, you don't study math recreationally in your down time?
-
I think in this case, they’re just using specific terms where they normally use more generic language. So they could just as easily have said “the opponents’ counter argument” or something like that. So I think you should definitely recognize that…

Excellent metaphor @runiggyrun . I hadn’t thought of it like that before, but that’s exactly what it’s like.
-
@runiggyrun said: the earlier LR lack some of the clarity and elegance of the later ones. I'd say they are more difficult in that respect (no? just me?). Definitely not just you iggy.
-
@quinnxzhang said: They seem to be sort of one-off games which don't fit into the grouping/sequencing classification and which will never show up again. I think it might be preemptive to think they will not show up again. At this point, these gam…

I want you too Prince. I want you back:’(

Got you down @kinghorn and look forward to you being able to jump in @"Darth Jurist" .
-
Not at all @"Darth Jurist" . We’re here whenever you can make it.

Yeah, housing down south is incredible. My house in south MS was 800/month for three bedrooms, in a highly desirable historic neighborhood. I don't know where I’m going yet, but wherever it is, I get the feeling rent is going to really suck!

I know there’s a cool little tea house, but that’s all I’ve got for you @allison.gill.sanford . I’m going to be in Boston late June/early July and am looking forward to poking around!
