Yeah, I'd have to agree with @allison.gill.sanford . Paying down the debt will suck, but at least it's in your hands. Ohio would somewhat alleviate that burden, but at the same time it creates significant hurdles for you that are outside of your con…

So the first sentence is just context. The rest of the passage is the argument, beginning with the conclusion and then following up the the premises. There are no conditionals, so I'm not sure how I'd write this out into lawgic, except maybe just dr…

This is merely one example of a veritable cornucopia of reasons as to why @"Dillon A. Wright" is the coolest.

Hey y'all, just wanted to give everyone an update: So we are working to restructure the whole approach to group BR to do away with the test specific groups. So instead of the Sept BR Group, we are going to proceed as THE BR Group. This will work be…

Got you down @brianb589 .

Hey @Skywalker , we're working on finalizing the schedule now and should be able to release something finalized soon. Will make sure to tag you so you won't miss it. Thanks for following up, I can't wait to get started!

@"Accounts Playable" . I'm not sure there's an instance where "people who" doesn't carry the implied "all," but you're definitely correct to make the distinction. It's the unstated "all" that actually makes this work as a group 1, not the stated "pe…

"People who" is your indicator here. Group 1. "Not" is only functioning as a negation of handsome. There may be some exception I'm not aware of, but I don't think "not" by itself can function as an indicator. Just a negation.
-
Yeah, E hinges on the inclusion of "kinds of." If you take that out and are just left with more lamps, then E would help explain the discrepancy. But we just don't care what kinds of lamps, we care about the number of lamps. And like @hlsat180 sai…

Yeah, if it's the questions that are dragging you down, that almost always means you're rushing it on the front end. It's easy under the time pressure to be so aware of speed that you actually slow yourself down by trying to move faster than you sho…
-
On the easier games are you coming in at or under the target time? Time has to be earned for the harder games on the easier games. So when you come across a basic sequencing game, it's really important for you to be able to knock it out in under fiv…

Just save the last print out to copy if you're going to need more! Much easier than the books!
-
Actually, that happened in Texas. So I think we'll need to defer to a Texan. If only there were a Texan to ask..

If you've got the time, there's nothing like the real thing. Clean copies on paper with pencil. It will take awhile though. If you're short on time, @katherine.t 's method sounds like a really smart alternative. Good thinking KT.
-
That's correct. For most people, waiting an extra two years isn't a viable option though, which effectively limits them to three takes.
-
You've got to trust your set up. Once you pick your answer, move on. Then, if you've got time left at the end, return to double check.
-
Nice! I've got my pre test ritual music, but hadn't thought about post test. Maybe I'll adopt yours!
-
@Fish0701 A lot of people just realized they weren't going to be quite ready for June and delayed their test until September. You only get three shots at it, so it's important to make them count.
-
For me, too much familiarity with the subject almost always hurts me. It's harder to reduce it to it's purely logical elements because it all means something to me, it's important to me. It shouldn't matter, but it's an additional barrier. This is e…
-
Yeah, I've done Powerscore and it was okay for some of the rougher grunt work, but for the fine tuning and polishing, it's not going to get you there. I'm all about some 7Sage. Transitioning from the books to 7Sage kind of revolutionized my prep. My…
-
I think the really tricky games are from 72 and 77. I'm taking in September, but my plan is to knock those out so I can get those games into my foolproofing rotation as early as I can. Might be a good place to start.
-
Try using a clean copy for you BR. It doesn't seem like a huge deal, but it really makes a huge difference. I write down all the questions I need to review on a notecard and then use that to work through a clean copy. I also write out my reasoning f…

How many games have you fool proofed @palmasi13 ? And once you've mastered a game, do you have a system for returning to games to reinforce them? Once I've mastered a game I do it again in one day, one week, and one month. The repeats are really hel…

What does your BR process look like @"A. Clermont" ? Correctly doing your BR is where you really see improvements at your stage in the process. If you're pushing 170, aim for a perfect BR. You've got unlimited time, so make sure you use it. You hav…

Correction: it was a three part seminar over one week and wrapped a couple days ago. I do believe the plan was to make it available though, but that may have been an assumption. I'm looking forward to it as well. I still think I got robbed by not be…

I love @"Jonathan Wang" 's tough love responses. This wasn't too tough, but can always count on JW to lay down some truth.
-
This is the strategy I used before 7Sage, and it was not as effective for me. I can definitely see how it may seem like it removes a step, but really you're still using the 7Sage rule, you're just adding that the term being introduced now has to be …
-
@dcdcdcdcdc To me it really is both. It's great reading, probably somewhere in the neighborhood of RC passages. And it's science related which can be intimidating, so it's good to be practiced in that. Specifically, weird science terms can really tr…
-
Agreed @runiggyrun . I used to dread turning the page and seeing an in/out game. Since going through the curriculum, the more the better. Free points!

Well you increased 18 points from your diagnostic, so you should feel great about that! Congratulations! What was your BR score?
