They guy who followed the real Commodus as Emperor, Pertinax, is one of my favorite historic figures. Wish they’d’ve written him in. Commodus left the empire completely bankrupt. In under a year, Pertinax complete…
I agree that it's worth thinking about delaying. I just feel someone should point out what a badass you are to keep right on studying through cancer. I say delay and keep studying. The LSAT's not going to stop you if you can just give yourself the t…

Not just Chicago - I believe Berkeley has one too (although this would be a moot point if you already attend Chicago).
Berkeley is moot for me because of their GPA thing, lol.
I think an old, familiar favorite is best. Something you can quote every line to. Although, before Sept 2016, I watched Zootopia for the first time and that worked too!

Margaret Cameron: This is maybe my absolute favorite. I looked up a lot of her stuff later and there really is an accidental sincerity to them which is really interesting.
Dostoevsky: I love Dostoevsky, so that passage was inherently in…
I think it'd be a shame to settle for any score you can get after 10 days of studying. Whatever your abilities are, you're settling for way below your potential. I studied for nearly six months before my first test and barely beat you with a 163 on …
First off, breathe. It's fine. Your abilities are exactly the same as they were before you took PT 82, so the only thing that may have changed is your confidence. To get that back, just do what you should normally do after each PT. I do think that l…
Well, the good news is your GPA will cross the 3.0 threshold. Whatever the situation, big improvement! I don't know what the right answer is on how to play this, but I'd probably email them and keep them up to date with the most accurate information…
It doesn't feel very different to me. With the very conspicuous exception of the intro of the comparative passages starting in PT 52, I actually think RC is the least changed section. The passages are about the same as ever and the skills required t…
I think you made the right call, for what it's worth. You were able to make the bulk of your LSAT mistakes without a score that reflects them. I've got two of those scores, lol, and they're not good for much.
So now that you know what you're dealin…
I'm not sure this is necessarily normal, but it doesn't sound particularly strange either. In each section you have strengths and weaknesses. Those strengths and weaknesses seem to be adding up to about the same thing for each section. The process r…
That's a pretty broad question, so here's some ramblings on different types of Grouping Games as well as random observations I may have during the writing of this response. Hope some of this hits on what you're needing!
In/Out games are where each …
The MPP at Penn will take LSAT, no GRE required. At Harvard, you can apply to Kennedy using your LSAT once you're attending law school, just not before. There's a lot of ways around the GRE, so just do your research and know your options at the scho…
Yeah, no reason you can't go to law school. It looks like you're covered and the main thing is you'll just have to give them an LSAT that will make up for it. I know a 2.9/170 that went to Northwestern with a scholarship.
Your application is a narr…

Okay, cool. I haven't seen all the LG videos, so please excuse my ignorance.
What about placing your variables below your game board?

I don't think it really matters. Just keep it 52 and up which is when the CR passage was introduced and it's all going to be pretty much the same. And at this point, don't try to do any more than one final PT. It sounds like that's all you're planni…
Are you doing all of the problem sets? One thing that I think can be really important is to save the bulk of the problem sets for later. Going through the CC initially, I'd recommend moving on once it seems to click. Before that happens, I'd recomme…
Knowing when to split and when not to split is an essential skill that, at best, may have general guidelines. Because there aren't hard set rules, any discussion of a game will be open to different interpretations on this point. Personally, I view s…
I started in Summer 2015 with a diagnostic somewhere in the high 140's. My official scores are:
Oct 2015 - 163
Dec 2015 - 162
Sept 2016 - 170
Sept 2017 - 176
Two pieces of advice:
Don't expect this to be something you can do on the side while…

My whole test was a freak out & my answers to what do I do was “go w/ your gut” - which may be good if you’re not freaking out, but while freaking out it’s a recipe to pick the trap wrong answers.

I don't remember if the CC covers an issue related to this, but there is often an implied "all" before sentences that begin with a plural verb. "Police officers should uphold the law." That appears to clearly imply that A…
