The psychological battle is real. Thanks for sharing! I didn't add marshmallows, haha, but I did this same thing with logic games. The association with my morning coffee made me eager to work them and I soon began enjoying them!

Agreed with @BinghamtonDave and @"Not Ralph Nader" . Postponing from December is your best move here. You just need more time.

An hour is a lot of time to lose on a commute. I'd opt for the hotel personally. For my liking, there's just too much that could happen that could turn an hour commute into a really stressful situation.

@lucmazzini , @"Alex Divine" will be along shortly to elaborate on this better than me, haha, but if you need to take a year off to get your score (and it sounds like you do), don't even sweat it. Almost no one reaches their potential in the amount …

Yeah, you've got to be really careful in using keywords to identify the conclusion. The first sentence is not the conclusion here simply because it is not a statement that the rest of the text is intended to support. Similarly, the the last sentence…

@LSATaker said: After you finish reading passage A you go through all questions? This is what I do. There will be a question or two I may can answer, there'll be a few I can't even approach, and the rest I'll be able to eliminate several wrong ans…

@BinghamtonDave said: can keep your head when all about you/Are losing theirs..." Wasn't familiar with that piece @BinghamtonDave , but looked it up and that's one hell of a conditional statement!

@"Rigid Designator" said: @"lucmazzini" I think checking your timing after each question or two is inadvisable. Definitely checking your time too much! I think @"Rigid Designator" 's advise is solid. This is also an indication that you're just fre…

Gotomeeting has been kinda glitchy lately. Not sure what the deal is.

We were actually just talking about this on a BR call! It happens: Just one more way for the test writers to screw with us. The more we see it happen, the less likely we are to let them get to us, so thanks for sharing!

Nice Creasey! I had this moment as well, and I still do LG's sometimes when I'm having coffee in the mornings. I enjoy them in the same way people like crossword puzzles or sudoku. Can't wait for 80 so I can have some fresh material!

It's basically just a complex sequencing game. The rules dictate the board as much as the pieces which I think is the only real novelty. I'm unsure of any precedent for its setup, but I actually don't think mastering it is going to be essential for …

Are you applying for this cycle or next? If you're applying this cycle with a February test, you're probably going to need to find an alternate writer. If you take next week, you can probably just inform her of your score--and your app deadlines--th…

Check Barnes & Noble. I'm not sure what their shipping is like, but I saw they at least had some in stock last time I checked.

I did basically what JY did. I think what is so off putting about this game is that the initial setup leaves for a board that is much more flexible than constructions we are used to dealing with. I don't think using arrows is necessarily terrible. …

@"J. Tharp" said: So funny how hard it is to get us to relax and take some time off Indeed! I suppose that's preferable to having it the other way around!
-
@Simbatron said: When I do BR them, it usually is some little word discrepancy I didn't catch Yeah, this is exactly what I would have expected. Just be conscious of this and learn to read for it, and your score will bounce back before you know it!

@"Anna Marie" said: no matter what, don't try to "work through" the burnout. Just let it be. Yeah, in case you're tempted, I just want to add special emphasis to this. It's funny how subtly burnout creeps up on us. No one ever realizes it's happe…

The usual way. Figure out why you missed what you missed, with special weight to confidence errors, and then learn what you need to learn to never make those mistakes again. A lot of the difficulty in the 70s seems to shift to language and grammatic…
-
Walking away in the middle of a test that you were not even particularly frustrated with is a huge red flag for burnout. It sounds like you went into the PT beautifully--well rested, fed, exercised, caffeinated, and warmed up--so this is almost cert…

@SherryS1 said: Looking at the question with "fresh" eyes after running through the rest of the questions is super helpful. This is what usually does it for me in these situations.

@SherryS1 said: I think we all work up momentum Is there any way to fix this? Try "warming up". I also think more practice has helped me hit my stride more quickly. Good call @SherryS1 . I did a couple of games, an RC passage and like the first …

@"Alex Divine" said: Two, and more importantly, you aren't really learning much by just doing a PT a day. You need to make sure you are reviewing them correctly and then addressing your weaknesses by returning to your prep materials and then drilli…

That, I believe, is George Orwell. I don't know his biography so I can only judge by his work when I say that he is, indeed, and excellent dude. Definitely B&W, and yeah, I'm calling that a smile for full credit. Good add @BinghamtonDave .

Nice!

It depends on which tests you're looking at. In the earlier 10 Actual books, you'll see the compressed version. At some point, they reformatted the LG section in order to provide the kind of layout you're seeing in the 7Sage print outs. This is t…
