@lpadr009 said: Take a pt everday for like 5-6 consecutive days. Also others take TWO pts a day. Yeah, that seems like the equivalent of going to Crossfit on Monday, and doing 6 WODs per day each day for the entire week and expecting to be ripp…

Well, I haven’t heard from @emli1000, so I’m taking over the BR call. If you’re interested, please PM me and I’ll add you to the list.
-
@emli1000 have you set up a Skype call?
-
I’m in. Who else???!!!! Come on, December Test Peeps! Let’s do this!
-
Took about 15 mins but I got it. No spoilers.
-
@badgalriri youre not doing it wrong. The blind review score is informing you that Your reasoning is deficient. The next step is to find out what fundamental process or skills you are lacking. For example, if you're getting most assumption family qu…

Okay. My insomnia has kicked in;I'm up at 4:30am; I could finish my BR;but I'm going to watch Suits instead because of this thread. Thanks for the inspiration.
-
I've started practicing both (timed one way, BR the other). I know that goes against what JY says, but I like having the dexterity to do it both ways.
-
Bronze! I'm a medalist! Now, it's time to go pro and cash in! Thanks, 7Sage!
-
Yeah. I think it used to be their free LSAT, but they've now since stopped making that available.
-
@c.janson35 as far as I know @emli1000 is organizing those calls. I won't be active on those calls until October because of work.
-
Hey @Matt1234567, you can call me "dumb" for short.
-
Do about 40 preptests (not even kidding), maybe more. I have the same problem, and this is exactly what I'm going through.
-
@lpadr009 I'm going to tell you right now. No one is going to have a great answer to this question. It's way too personal. It sounds like you need to have a long conversation with someone who's honest (that friend who can call you on your BS witho…
-
People right after the test commented about how tricky it was. Then, once the answer explanations came out, people remarked how straightforward it was. It's all about the Head Game.

Lots of virgos

This was a great read, @visualcreed. Thanks for the update.
-
After I hit 20 PTs ( at 15 currently), I plan on alternating between retakes and new tests . Will let you know how that goes .
-
If you're taking in October,I'd advise getting PTs 70-75 done and BRd ASAP (there are a lot of acronyms in that sentence...sorry). There, clearly, are differences in the newer tests, and the sooner you can get acclimated to those differences, the be…

Oh @nicole.hopkins, like Ted Cruz, I find you an incredible contradiction. But some of the most interesting people in the world are contradictions. Happy for you that you got to meet him. It must have taken your motivation levels to Ludicrous Speed.
-
I use BR as a way to consciously practice all the things that I hope I will ultimately do intuitively when timed: Reading for reasoning structure, Practicing memory method, knowing why incorrect answers are incorrect, maybe finding parallels between…
-
BR them. Shoot for perfection. Make sure you understand why each answer is correct and incorrect. Then watch the videos to devise a strategy of knocking that game out under timed conditions. Then foolproof it so that it becomes intuitive.

@"Mike Stone" said: Plenty more learning before my not-good-enough 151BR holds any water. I think what @jyang72 is saying is that you might want to hold off on any more PTs because your BR score (even the 158) is very low. A 158 Blind review score…

I'm guessing Pacifico has no sleep schedule at this point.
-
Thanks for thinking of me, but no need. I was able to adjust my schedule accordingly. See you at 7pm EST.

@c.janson35 said: No scale or trademarked terminology can substitute for a lot of practice. Some serious brilliance right here. I’ve read them all, and the truth is any improvements I’ve made all have resulted from some serious practice.

@nicole.hopkins said: Gotta remember to put my face on That’s how my grandma used to refer to her make-up regimen. nice. I look forward to the demo.
-
Am I missing something with this? Can someone show me a video of what this watch does that’s so special? Unless it can tell me what the necessary assumption is to an abstruse argument that I’m currently reading, it seems like a waste of money...
-
I am in the "zone" for this one!

Actually, your biggest issue seems to be your fundamental understanding of the major concepts of the test. Ideally, your BR score should be closer to the 170s. Timing comes from a solid understanding of the fundamentals. Sure, you want to make sure …
