This is an unorthodox suggestion since it's nothing explicitly suggested in the CC, but I visualize almost all arguments in my head like a moving picture while reading the stimulus. The pictographic illustrations help me retain the information in th…

@mdswink said: I'm currently working through the CC right now and I just finished the lesson on grouping games with a chart. I'm understanding the concepts alright but when it comes to application, I'm having trouble. My biggest question is...…

@"Cant Get Right" said: I'm definitely among the others who can't. @"J.Y. Ping" said: I find it very challenging to do that so I don't presume that others can. @jennybbbbb said: Definitely recommend it to others! And thank you…

JY maps out a lot of mechanical explanations for questions. I don't want to speak for him, but I'd wager his method for doing these timed is a lot more organic and intuitive than his explanations are... but then again, he kind of has to explain them…

Also, a short dirty guide to SA questions is to FIND THE CONCLUSION! If a new variable is brought into the conclusion, you should be going into hunt mode only looking at ACs that mention that new variable. Sometimes you get lucky and only one AC eve…

Which PTs have you done? As you may or may not know, assumption questions have gone through a pretty big revamp in recent tests compared to the older ones. They're typically less mechanical/lawgic-based in new tests. If you're struggling with these…

Thanks for the two cents guys!

Bumping this. Half the points I lost on PT 82's RC section went to its comparative passage. For those who score high on RC, how do you handle comparative passages? Do you go about it the same as the rest? I'm almost considering going through all que…

A 170 BR as your diagnostic is amazing! I never did a diagnostic, but I'm sure it would have been similar to yours. My first post-CC test I did manage to hit a low 160, but I was probably a high 50s/ low 60s scorer at that time for any given test t…

@mstrings7 said: If we buy this PT, do we get access to the video explanations once they're finished? Yes. Also, JY is doing Q&A periods on this test soon, if you don't feel like waiting: https://classic.7sage.com/discussion/#/discussio…

@"Caleb.rohr.church" said: Over my last couple of ptests I have scored in my goal range for one (ex -4) and then like 5 below that (-10). It's really hurting my score. I was wondering if anyone has had experience with this problem and if there…

Hey LSATcantwin, I don't think it's as beneficial as other PTs since the questions are so fresh in your mind... that being said, congratulations on that 180 blind review! I just ran through the first section myself; didn't find it too difficult but…

I only use a highlighter for some logic games. Even then, it's only to write the game pieces in highlighter so I can scratch them out/erase the scratches without rewriting the pieces (to save time and mental energy). Using them for anything else, f…

I doubt they'd look it up. I also doubt they'll click the link and read about it in depth either. I'm pretty sure, because any worker has to go through hundreds of applications in a short window, she/he will take your PS at face value. So, when you'…

It is my understanding that the Ultimate's additional CC material is just sets of "harder" questions. Nothing new to you, considering you've probably already watched videos for 4-5 star questions for the preptests that were originally available to …

I feel like once you get the mentality (i.e. active reading > passive reading) and technique that suits you (e.g. marking up text vs. diagramming vs. low rez summaries), the reading comp section will just start to "click" like the logic games sec…

In my last few PTs I've gone anywhere from 166-172, so I don't totally meet your criteria... That being said, I think I know what would be a good, general response to your good, general question. LG - unless they're brute forcing their way down thr…

Try a less daunting method of getting questions quickly (the timing will come -- I promise). Use a stopwatch and do a question. Pause it when you finish each question to review if you got the question right/wrong and why (but keep the stopwatch cum…

I am pretty certain that you won't get your score back until January 4th

This is a really interesting post. I too have a very different mindset when doing LR vs RC sections. I'm unfamiliar with PowerScore lingo, but it sounds similar to yours. For RC, I find myself a lot more relaxed (i.e. less critical) in my reading of…

I second @"Seeking Perfection" !

@Sami and @akistotle, thank you so much for your answers. Your responses prompted me to go back and realize exactly where I erred in reasoning -- I wasn't paying enough respect to "cannot also" in AC (D), as it never fully commits to the inference t…

I usually spend spend between 3:30 to 4 minutes reading a passage, which I've read is longer than ideal. But I make sure to spend the required time up front on the passage, which helps me answer most questions in 20-40 seconds. What I find useful f…

@"Paul Caint" , I've noticed this too. The modern and modern-ish RCs are, on average, much more manageable than old RCs IMHO. I think it's great you found your best plan of attack for RC. It took some playing around for me to find mine too, and it …

@"lena.c1992" , 7Sage is gonna hate me for this and I also hate to do it because I think it's an incredible resource and they deserve all the business they get and more... but, if you get your hands on those newer tests... https://lsathacks.com/expl…

This is completely a topical consideration that should always be supplemented by fundamental logic. Nonetheless, it's a practical solution to have. If you're down to 2 questions, consider two things: (1) applying the negation test. (2) deciding …

@"Dillon A. Wright" said: Main issue with highlighters is that they bleed through the paper... Especially on the very thin paper that LSAC uses for their test. Thanks for the tip! Googles best non-bleeding highlighters
