That’s a really complex question that doesn’t at all lend itself to generalities. The best I can say is that if the information you’re considering is best represented by splitting the game board, then split the game board. If the information is best…

I retested a 170, but my PT average was 176 at the time of the retest. I think that was critical. If you can get your PT average up to mid-170’s+, then go for it. As it is, though, it looks like you maxed out your current score range. Very little re…

It’s much more important that you are able to take notes than that you actually do. If you can write summaries, you don’t need to. The notes reflect your understanding, but they don’t improve or refine it. If you can’t take notes, you’ve got work to…

Here’s an answer I gave to a similar inquiry a while back which I think holds up pretty well: There's a lot of tutors out there, and they run the spectrum from the truly great to the spectacularly awful. There's a lot of easy ways to weed out the r…

NA’s closest cousin question is MBT. The only difference is the conditional aspect adds a step. So one foundational question that’s really important but that most people don’t know the answer to is: what is the sufficient in the NA question? You can…

Start out self studying with the 7Sage Core Curriculum. Then Foolproof Logic Games and do PT’s with intensive BR until you can’t figure out how to improve any further on your own. Then shop around for a good tutor who can diagnose your weaknesses an…

@"Determined_-1" said: @"Cant Get Right" you always know what to say!! any tips? Happy to pitch in! First, -11 is definitely a big underperformance, but not so far out of range of -5/-6 that it’s totally unexpected. You bottomed out, but it…

Just try to touch base a bit every day. You don’t have time to study, but you could probably carve out 20 minutes a day. I think that can be enough to hold off the rust. I’d recommend half sections with BR. So on Monday, do all the odd numbered que…

It sort of depends on where you’re at. Flatlining at -15 per section is very different than at -5 which is very different than at -2. The solution very much depends on first identifying the problem. Can you tell us more about what’s happening?

I’ve known one guy that I can confirm can properly process a passage in under 2:30, and I’ve worked with hundreds of people on this test. For 99.9% of people, a read time in that range is not the way to go. I take an average of 4 minutes per passage…

@"Matt Sorr" said: If you don't mind me asking a follow up, when you say that you "treat each question like it my be [your] only attempt," do you mean that you basically never skip questions? Or something else? I don’t skip in RC in the same…

Pick what’s interesting to you. No major is going to give you a huge edge on the LSAT, and even if it would, I think that would not be a great basis for picking your major. That said, I studied English literature. I liked it. I was really intereste…

Updated with link in the main post.

Time management is the one thing that I feel I really do better than just about anyone else around, and I'll typically have a few minutes, but nothing like LR or LG. In LR I typically have 10+ minutes. In LG I've occasionally done the whole section …

Starts-in-an-hour bump!

Happening tonight! I'll post a Zoom link about 10 minutes prior to start time. See y'all then!

Updated with new session time. Hope folks can make it! @BrickbyBrick22 said: @"Cant Get Right" Love that you are doing these. Are you planning on hosting another one in the near future? Here you are!

What’s your BR looking like? Your next steps look really different depending on where that is.

Nope.

@maco4538 said: Whoever says a year is fucking with you. Not all of us are as quick on the uptake as you. If you mastered LG in a 3 week blitz, I’m genuinely impressed. I’ve been at this a long time, and few can match your accomplishment. Ma…

Since we’re talking about RC, let me elaborate a bit on why I don’t recommend the Economist for outside reading. The Economist is a fine publication. The writing is consistent throughout, clear and concise, and at a reading level just high enough f…

I don’t think structure is actually that important, but slowing down and understanding the passage is almost always spot on advice. The section is literally called Reading Comprehension. If you don’t comprehend the reading, there’s just no work arou…
