The LSAT is a skills-based test. Your 145-148 demonstrates a lack of either understanding or performing those skills. What have been your study methods? Have you taken advantage of 7Sage’s Curriculum? Are you blind reviewing your PTs? If not, you sh…
Skip questions. The minute you can’t pre-phrase an answer, or you’ve eliminated all 5 answer choices, move on. It’s not the reading speed or even the reading volume that kills us; it’s the paralysis when we don’t know the answer. If that happens, ci…
Here are my notes on this problem. To answer your question, if you think that the discrepancy stems from the advertisements of cigarettes and fatty foods, then you’re ignoring half the stimulus. The problem is that this stimulus reads a lot like an …
Two words: fleet enema. Would probably still want to wear the diaper during the test, just to be safe.
Glad we're all prepared now. I would have felt so embarrassed if this happened during the real thing. Now I know...

@lsatblitz Congrats on hitting the 160s!!
You should consider getting the early RCs (http://www.amazon.com/LSAT-Reading-Comprehension-Type-Difficulty/dp/1453803300/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1440198977&sr=8-2&keywords=cambridge+lsat+readin…
Give it time. Maybe try LSAT Trainer. SAs, you’ll soon find, are your friend because there can’t be any wiggle room in the reasoning. Like JY says, if you want a chance at a 170, SAs have to become gimmes. And they will. Just give it time.
@bishoplaw I hear you. I watch my 4-year old twins (Daytime Daddy) and work about 20-30 hours per week. I find it very difficult to do more than 1 PT per week too. I’ve had to adjust my expectations accordingly. I’m now on the 14-18 month plan; I st…
How is a 180 Watch any better than the watch JY recommends with the little turny thing( technical term)? Do you not have to reset it after each section?
Hey, it may not be necessary, but it certainly is sufficient. Thanks to certain proclivities that I partook of in college (which I do not regret), my memory is completely shot.
@shiv.tomer1 To date, I'm still fool-proofing/drilling. I actually don't think I'll ever be done with drilling because when I tried to stop (after reaching -1 on an LG section during a PT), my score plummeted. I'd advise getting eyes on PT 1-35 onc…
This may be considered extreme, but since conventional wisdom says it takes 21 times of doing something to create a habit (which is what memorization essentially is), I drilled (using flash cards) the valid and invalid arguments for no more than 10 …
You don't necessarily need to do anything differently. Your high BR means you have a strong understanding of fundamentals. Now it's time to just practice practice practice. PT-BR- repeat. If you find that your LG score is lower than -3, I'd recommen…
ok. But I hope you'll reconsider. We're all prospective lawyers here, I assume. Argument is good. It helps us clarify our thinking and our understanding of the world.
+1 @"GSU Hopeful" here. On this forum, we definitely entertain debate, and when we do debate, we really try to attack the argument and its reasoning, not the person. We really try to put some distance between the two.
You seem on the defensive, a…
Me too. After the chapter on Most Strongly Supported questions, it was like the clouds parted and the sun shone bright upon all the wrong answers. ’Twas a beautiful thing.
