Yes! Congrats!!!!!! You're a monster!

I haven't owned a VHS player since 90s.

The originals are very difficult to come by. No blu ray exists of Han shooting first. It's a sad state of affairs in the Episode IV-VI world. George Lucas post-1983 is dead to me.

I like Ted Cruz's haircut more.

When there are no logical indicators, Work wrong to right. Live in the answer choices. Eliminate them because they aren't supported by the text. Be aware of degree. Words like "most" and "all" and comparisons, in general, are very difficult to suppo…

Looking forward to hearing everyone on the BR calls. They're a valuable resource, especially for kinesthetic learners who need to talk out stuff in order to process it.

This feels like the most boring game show ever created

When NA problems involve bridging a gap, it really helps to see that gap before you jump into the answer choices. Let’s break the argument core down. Conclusion: What is called "international law" is not effective law. Premise: there is currently n…

Beware of too many acronyms Although, I must say, watching this video now makes me sad.

@gs556 B is the correct answer. I think you mean (C) is the trap answer.
-
I think I see your problem. Actually, the conclusion is that the post office clearly could be built more cheaply on the outskirts of town. "Brownlea’s post office must be replaced with a larger one" is a premise, maybe even just context. A correct…

@"Aiesha G." I would also encourage you to get your hands on every RC passage the LSAC ever published. While all of these publications are great, there’s one problem with them: there are no LSAT-type questions at the end of each reading to test yo…

170+, UCLA

@mc_meatt http://nautil.us/issue/26/color/the-girl-who-smelled-pink I actually like the app Elevate, especially the “Processing" exercise. It appears to be a speed reading exercise, but it’s really developing the skill of processing what we read in…

LOL! That is hilarious!

Welcome to LSAT prep! I’ve been at this since January. My diagnostic was 141. My most recent PT was 161, and I'm BRing 170+. It is a learnable test. Is it easy? Absolutely not. I think you have to come to terms with yourself that this is probably g…

That is standard operating procedure.
-
@nye8870 I’ll be there!
-
@c.janson35 Appreciate the props. I actually typed out explanations for my first 5 PTs until I reached a 175 BR score. Now, I’m in the Pt-BR-repeat phase and I can’t possibly find the time to type out the explanations for every problem. I think you’…
-
The actual book’s examples are all from test 35 or earlier. His program does advocate drilling with PTs higher, but I think that might be a mistake for some people. Anecdotally, I’ve observed that completing 40 PTs with excellent blind review seems …
-
@bSM45LSAT Based on your BR difficulties, it sounds as if your fundamentals aren’t completely solid. I wouldn’t do more than 1 PT per week until you can easily BR above 170. I’d also look at other resources like LSAT Trainer or Manhattan for further…
-
Think of your BR score as metric of your UNDERSTANDING of the LSAT and your timed score as a metric of your PERFORMANCE of the LSAT. The LSAT is a performance, plain and simple, like you would see at Carnegie Hall. And hopefully, you know how to get…

Parkinson's Law. Curious to see how you do with PT 72.
-
That is awesome! Congrats on hitting a huge milestone.
-
This is a great thread. Read. Read. Read some more. Then read even more. Work on being active. Work on reading for structure. But, most important: Just read.
-
@c.janson35 said: this debate may have just veered off into logomachy territory lol; I feel like we think the same things and are just expressing them in different ways. I think you’re probably right. This LSAT tends to bring out a lot of logomac…
-
How’s your negating ability? That has to be top notch. If not, I’d review that in the logic section. And I agree with @Pacifico. Keeping “blocking” and “bridging” in the back of my mind for NA really stops me from making a dumb mistake.
-
@c.janson35 said: I would also argue that honing in your internal clock is a habit that is passively developed by doing timed practiced sections; It could be passively developed by doing timed practice sections, but that doesn’t necessarily mean…
-
Haha @tanes256 I wouldn’t worry about too much Trainer talk. @"J.Y. Ping” has given a full throated endorsement of The Trainer. And Mike Kim’s has given similar endorsements of 7Sage. A whole big family here
-
@"Jonathan Wang” I disagree. I understand (and agree with) your overall thinking here that timing is essentially a direct result of your confidence in your fundamentals, but your posts in other places, particularly your videos, say you've only used …
