I second @Sami 's comments. Couldn't have said it better.

@"Alex Divine" said: I think finishing the CC first is generally best. Drill and do some of the problem sets as practice to learn and improve as you work your way through. Once you have completed the CC then begin to PT and blind review and re…

Welcome!

And hang in there. This is a part of the process. The LSAT is designed to make us hit these emotional walls and our scores reflect as much how we're able to handle them as they do our raw intellect or anything else. Law schools want people who can o…

@bswise2 said: I appreciate everyone's input. It's so valuable to have such a supportive community on here because, as much as I can complain and vent to my friends and family about this, they clearly can't empathize the way people on here can…

@lsnnnnn0011 said: @"Cant Get Right" do you think that all LR Qs ask us about THE main logical flaw (most obvious) of a stimulus and just give the correct answer in expressions/words that are sometimes different from what we expect? You mak…

Yeah, In/Out started as a big weakness for me, but now I burn through them with about the highest speed and accuracy of any game type. Agreed with @"Alex Divine" on comfort with conditional logic being imperative. If you're struggling with that at a…

@TimLSAT180 said: I think most people would say to finish the CC first and then implement the fool-proof method for LG. I think this is the best course to take because without having learned the logic and advanced logic portions of the CC, it'…

Yeah guys, the cute pony is RC. We're the big beefy guy. Not the other way around!
-
Congrats Alex! I was working 60 hours/week for most of my study time leading up to my first two takes. Having the time to really commit to lsat was a game changer. More than 7Sage and more than the pressure of only having one take left, the time was…
-
Great info @"Alex Divine" and @stepharizona . For that matter, great question OP.
-
Agreed with @"Heart Shaped Box" and @"Alex Divine" . How often does checking the remaining answers in this situation result in correcting your answer from that original pick? If the answer is that it frequently does, then it might be worth the time…
-
Yeah, I agree with @danielznelson . A 157 is consistent with your average. Given the circumstances, it's actually quite impressive! With only seven tests under your belt, you still have lots of material to improve with. Just make sure that as you ta…

Sounds like you're burnt out to me. I'd recommend taking a week off and relaxing. When you come back, healthy diet, exercise, sleep, and mentality are all huge components. I had a student the other day who really just needed to have eaten a sandwich…
-
So first, no, you can not add corrected confidence errors to your BR score. These errors are actually the worst errors you can make and you should give them additional weight and attention. For the level you're performing at, you definitely don't w…
-
Agreed with @Sami . BR is meant for questions you couldn't answer with confidence. If you want to review the ones you got right, that's okay, but it's a different exercise from BR. All I'd add is to make sure in your BR that you're not just writing…
-
Yeah, looks like your split left out a number of worlds, which you seem to have spotted. Your splits need to represent all possibilities worlds, so you'd need way too many boards to split effectively based on that distribution. The only place I can …

Congrats y'all!
-
Aww Yeah!! That's what I like to see! Congrats on an exceptional test day performance!
-
Great advice already, and I second the lot of it. I had a moment like this as well. On my second take, I actually went down a point from my first. That put me into a pretty dark place for awhile. I gave up on law school, but eventually came back. I…
-
Glad you got the spot! I had a major panic about this. My alma mater wasn't listed for my test date, and there was an SEC conference football game on campus at the nearest center. No way was I about to go into that kind of environment. I was going t…
-
Agreed: Nice but not too nice. Within that range, rock whatever works best for you.
-
Congrats! Can't wait to see acceptance letters start rolling in for you! Let us know where you end up; I know you're going to kill it wherever you go!
-
Hey, this is such a great question. I've had a bit of a vendetta against the prephrase/anticipate approach except for question types like SA or Main Conclusion where there really can only be one possible answer. For most types, I really don't like i…
-
Yeah, I'm the same way. I think anticipation can be a good exercise to help you think about some of the different things they might throw at you, but like you, I find that when I actively do it under time I pretty much always go with the wrong thing…

Congrats @zkchrumz and @ashley_k2204 ! Excellent job!
-
Hey, next week, we're actually doing a whole series of webinars on RC. Keep an eye out on the forums tomorrow morning for details!

Thanks so much for coming everyone!

Congrats!
