@KeepCalm I'm in the same boat as you. I took the week off after the test thinking I'd get some vigor back. Have been trying to stick to it since then but my brain just feels like mush. So far I've blind reviewed two tests I did before the exam and …

Very well said. I took the November LSAT as well. During the first game of the LG sections, I initially missed some very simple inference probably as a result of test tunnel vision. To not panic I closed my eyes for 5 seconds, took a deep breath, sk…

From what I remember from the November take, it was pretty generous. I want to say around 9 sheets of paper bound together.

LR LG LR LR RC. RC on nonfiction cinema, whorfian linguistics, water treaties, and microchips is real. LG on visiting different countries, cooking ingredients, visiting factories is real.

You should try to ascertain the relationship between the passages before going in to the question. Generally they will be either adversarial, supplementary, general vs. specific, but they could also assume other relationships.

I tried numerous things for this. I found that rereading can sometimes create an "obsession" where you find yourself rereading a rule 5..6..7 times. At least for me this was the case. I would advise to read it slowly once and limit yourself to one r…

Yes you can always translate usually to most.

Thanks!

Sure. This occurs on every chart game, now called group-repetitive games on the question database. Lets take the first 5 chart games we are given within the database coming from PTs 4, 8, 12, 28, 35. PT 4 G2: "each of the 5 illnesses is characteriz…

GSU is right. Likely is one of those statements where at first it doesn't look like it represents "51% or greater" but it does. So: people with university degrees have 51% or greater chance of having dogs than cats. And yes it is also a correlation.

I took this PT recently and also noticed this, but noticed too that LG was significantly easier. I feel like that is the consistent trade off across all PT's, sections trading on respective difficulty, and I read on the forum that others noticed thi…

No, I don't think that latter flaw choice would be correct. Because even if it is true, the mistake is still confusing sufficiency and necessity. For example, assuming other things are necessary to A: A --> A, B, C. Therefore: B --> A. The mis…

Also interested in this. Frequently I'd come upon the latter embedded and realize it's not the same structure and can't make the translation.

@Demarkee727 Now that I look at it again it depends whether you are looking at it from what "is not" or what "is". If some dogs are not black, 0-99 can be black and 1-100 can be not black, so yea my bad both work depending on how you look at it. Th…

There are a few options. If your intuition leans slightly to one more than another, choose that one, flag it, return to it if time permits. In situations where it is really close between two I do not choose at all and come back to it later. When thi…

To reiterate what was already said above, they mean the same thing. However neither means 0-99. "At least one is not" is from 1-100.

Depends. NAs are either connectors or defenders. For the former yes, you need to consider the whole argument, premises and conclusion, to find the gap. The latter not necessarily. A defender NA could be anything, and need not consider all the premis…

Often only means some. For often to mean most it would have to be "more often than not."

It's a correlation, so I just write a line in between them with 'Corr' on top of it. I'd avoid arrows since causality hasn't been established either way. Like in the example "The rate of ice cream consumption is directly proportional to the murder r…

In terms of improvement, for me it's been after a lot of games. I'm still working on it too. I'm in the 60's right now and I still go back to old games frequently and redo them after fool proofing to 'make sure.' Studying games always feels the most…
-
Which PT's were you using? LR becomes more rigorous past the 30s, that might explain your perceived drop.
-
This might sound crazy but you just need to trust the process even when it seems like returns are minuscule. It'll be a while before you're flying through games but you will eventually be flying as long as you keep grinding. After doing your ASQ que…

If I really need to diagram for an LR question I skip it and then diagram on the second round. Pick the low hanging fruit first and then invest what time you have left into what needs to be diagrammed. These are almost always Parallel Reasoning/Para…
