Reading is so tough to work on, and it's made more complicated by the fact that different people respond to drastically different methods. Definitely develop a concise and consistent notation strategy. Nicole has a great one which I modified for m…
In our defense @montaha.rizeq , they're making us do this immediately after finishing the LSAT. What else can they expect? If I manage anything approaching the level of "The Little Puppy Who Lost his Way," I'll take it.
Guys we're going to totally crush it. We're going to go in there totally ready and just destroy it. We've waited until we were ready, we've worked as hard as anyone, we've had the best resources available, and we've had an incredible support network…
Lol, we've got too many J. Wangs to keep up with. Sorry about that Josephine! I think I commented on a post of yours before, and totally thought you were the dude from the BR Group. Glad to have that straightened up!
Just recognizing that is a great start. The logic repeats itself over and over and over. They just don't have a lot of options on the logic. So what they do is they disguise that material with grammar. At a certain level, it really does become a tes…
Right on @kylereinhard . This has me wondering about one of those tri colored highlighters where it's got yellow pink and blue all in one. One color for who/what, another for when/where, and the last for shift/attitude indicators. I haven't used a h…
I'm a big proponent of outside reading. Readers will consistently outscore nonreaders, so be a reader. However, all of that must be considered totally supplementary to your studying. For proper studying, only official LSAT passages will do. I de…
Lol, definitely. I realized recently that now that school has started and Allison and Nicole and Corey and Pacifico and everybody is gone; we're like, the main guys now, haha!

it's finally getting to a point where game day is imminent.
Yeah, I'm excited! We finally get to upgrade those Mentor badges to Sage!

I really feel like I should be drilling practice tests at this point, but I don't want to waste them.
Yeah, if you're taking in September you need to be way deep into the PT/BR study phase. At the same time, if you're not d…

Im not postponing and will just withdraw the day before if Im not where I need to be, but Im feeling good that I could make it.
Yeah, this is exactly where I'm at.
I'm feeling really great overall. My average is right on my t…
@cacrv567 , perhaps trend wasn't quite the right word, it's almost more like a new question type. On 78.1.6, I eliminated everything, so wasn't really wavering between anything. When I came back to it at the end, I eliminated everything again, lol…
Woah, that's excellent! I love that they're storing all the old books in a cave in Kentucky, lol. Some archeologist 1000 years from now is going to hit the jackpot!
That looks really encouraging Jonathan [Edit] Josephine!. If pacing is your main issue in LR, you can improve a lot there just by developing a high level pacing strategy. What happened on your LR1 BR though? That's the only thing I see that worri…

LG is my weak spot
This is excellent. This is easy to fix. Well, okay, not easy, but quite manageable if you work hard at it. Get LG to a consistent -0 and you're going to be in great shape.
You're close enough it's not necessarily a completely horrible idea to take, but as of now, you're going to really be relying on everything going right which never happens. I'd say give it another couple weeks and then withdraw if you're not consis…
Welcome @"Dark Knight V" , glad you'll be joining us! Yeah, LR lends itself best to group discussion so that's what we do. They can take anywhere from between 3 - 6 hours. Don't feel like you've got to stay on until 1 am though. Most folks come …
What's your section breakdown? I really hope you're -10 in LG, but even -3 or 4 is great. Wherever you're at on LG, if it's not -0 it's not good enough. If you want to break 170, that's just where you've got to be. Period.
You also need to bump…
Yeah, I'd recommend withdrawing from September. You're going to need everything to go right on test day and that just never happens. Don't even worry about it though, you're in a great position to absolutely crush it in December.
Yeah, and just for extra emphasis, it really is important to not score your timed test before your BR. It really undermines the entire process.
It's also helpful to write your BR out. It's surprisingly easy to say, "oh, I see" and then go to writ…
In that case, you are definitely correct that you are running out of time. What's your target score and what did you score on the one you took in May? You really need to have been consistently scoring at or above your target score already. Depend…

Actually I think future incarnations of these guys are going to be really easy now that I know about them. Tricky for sure, but easily manageab…
