I don't think she should totally exclude tutoring; she should give it a try and see if it works. When I started studying, so many told me I didn't need a tutor and so I self-studied but found that I needed help, help that …
So for someone who does "not know anything about the LSAT", you believe they should hire someone to explain basic concepts to them that are readily available at a fraction of the cost if not for free?
Did I use "should"?
What does it mean to …
That's not what he's saying. He's simply advising that he or she try self-studying before seeking out a tutor. Not everyone needs a tutor, and spending hundreds on a tutor who won't do much to help is a complete waste. How you do through self-stu…

I'm sure there are would be no shortage of people willing to take your money, but your best bet is to focus on the CC or some other prep material set or course. A tutor is highly unlikely to be worthwhile at the beginning IMO…
Probably there is a max of 1-2 points of difference for you because your level of English is so advance. I would say essentially no difference. If you study the proper way it takes you 5-6 months to get close to your potential, if you study on your …

I personally wouldn't advise private tutoring if you are scoring below 160. I just think if you are below 160, there are some fundamental things you can figure out yourself. If you pay for a tutor at that score range, you …

Constantine helped me so much on RC, just got a -1 for the first time!!!
(Thank You!!)
Thank you for the feedback! You are a quick learner.
It's nice of you. Thank you for the encouragement! English is my third language. I've started studying English when I was over 20 years old. Yes, this is a challenge.

Interesting, what do you PT on average, Constantine? And yes I would agree PT51 is not a hard LSAT, if you look at the way 7sage rates its LR/RC/LG question difficulties, in comparison of difficulty to PT50-80s, PT51's LG was o…
You need to look at average of last 3-5 PT.
As of 51 PT it’s not hard one. I took it a few weeks ago and scored 178. But when I went up for lite 50th and early 60th it got much worse for me
If you haven't done BR via video chat then you should.
After I b.reviewed one LR section via video chat, which took two days, my understanding of the test has improved more than for a month of previous work, and accordingly score.

We will take one of the PT or section. I'm gonna show you when we meet via zoom in detail. I will present a passage in real time. As I read, share my thoughts, we discuss it, then you present the next one, we discuss it, and so on. I've done this be…
Take the test when you are ready, that is, when you are constantly hitting your target score.

If anyone is available for an hour or two of help with assumptions and main point on RC that would be great. I am between -2 and -4 on RC usually, with main point by big weakness. I'm mid 170's on PTs right now with RC pro…
I can tutor you for free for an hour or so. It would be enough to understand your task on RC. I'm usually getting - 1 to - 3. English is my third language, so you are going to be better. I've helped my friend. She says it helped her a lot.
Could be a technical glitch... idk
I am in the same situation: 14 points below PTs.
Probably you had the curve on the test -10 (to get 170 according to the PowerScore podcast).
Keep study (Section or PTs, and BR of course)!
If you are rich go for it. If not don't. Just withdraw. 150 diagnostic is pretty good. You should shoot for 165+
Don’t pay for a low-rank school! Let’s say if you got 160 then you have a good chance to get a full scholarship in low-rank school, if …
