@BruiserWoods they wrote that for mine too.. it's just a template and god knows why they don't adjust it. They will give you a break after the 4th section, then collect your materials (Scranton, test booklet) then they have a separate sealed small b…
I can clear this up. I took it twice with accommodations. I was allowed an optional 5 minute break between sections (although this could be individualized, and I didn't use it as it interrupted my flow) along with the normal 15 min break everyone el…
Thank you all for these helpful comments, I'm definitely gonna take a week or two off to try and regroup. Ill be straight with everyone as i'm trying to find the most accurate plan of attack, I could of done a better job with BR. I got lazy with it …
Update: The BR is down right nasty and admittedly much more time consuming for these "difficult" sets than I originally anticipated, but I just completed a "normal" LR section with 6 minutes to spare... new record for me. Possibly on to something…
Great suggestion @cverdugo ! I will definitely look into that... I just wish there was a way to get the more recent "difficult" questions bundled together so I can simulate them as if they were an entire section, as opposed to hitting up them up ind…
I used to work in television before I decided to pursue law school, and ironically a lot of the script coverage I had to do dealt with legal procedurals and serialized shows . Suits is fun.. but a tad cookie cutter.. kinda like a legal Entourage. Ve…

There's a difference between memorizing the flaws and familiarizing yourself with them. It's not necessary that you memorize any lists, but you definitely want to take your time to familiarize yourself with the most common flaw ty…
@"GSU Hopeful" lol, no. You are not mistaken... Which is why I've been lagging on starting back up with PTs. Thinking I'm gonna start at PT 63 and work my way up... CRAZY BR the day of a PT, then on non-pt days I was gonna drill games, my weakest LR…
Cheers @sean.marz , well said. Anyway we want to spin this the overwhelming majority of people agree that 70+ RC is harder... some may be naturally strong at RC and say otherwise. But when you combine overall longer passages with more "difficult" in…
@schyler.cox , so happy you posted this. I feel the same way, before this I used to do script coverage for production companies so I felt my reading comprehension skills were through the roof, passages like that make me cringe and second guess mysel…
I completely agree. 71 was damn tough.. That's mirror physics passage was out of control, absolute devastation. We can't "guarantee" that the 70+ PTs are harder per se, but there sure as hell is a damn strong correlation with harder RC, and trickie…
Thank you all for the the support and great advice! The BR scores went down a little as well, unfortunately the second guessing continued through the BR of the recent tests. I took today to go back and tie up loose ends, review some fundamental stu…
Ah, Ok THAT makes sense. I know negating and attaining contrapositives are different, but I see how I wasn't articulating myself correctly now lol. Ugh, one of those days...did crappy on a PT test too. Weird though, I always assumed that when you s…
Well, from my general understanding of the exam there are no 100% shortcuts that ALWAYS work. Admittedly, it may have been from a Manhattan book or something, but it's moot because anyway you want to do the contrapositive, the original statement is …
But that's exactly my point. "being permitted" doesn't equate to actually "doing the act." Isn't it a big leap to make the assumption that just because someone is permitted to do something, they in fact do it? The explanation given for this question…
I do 99% of RC with the highlighter, but just for extra assurance that I don't skim over it I'll quickly note "M.P." in pencil when, and only when, I've decided that I've found the main point. Otherwise, strictly highlighter.
Incredibly RC is slowly becoming my best section.. I still have issues with science passages but after taking tips from the trainer and JY's memory method I've improved drastically... Started out -10 or -11 now I average -3 or -4 and by test time I'…
Both actually. I rarely get to 40. Usually take a 20XR in the morning then 10 instant the afternoon. I was prescribed my freshman year at UCLA and have been on it since... so pretty much 6 years. Luckily I haven't had any sort of withdrawal at all …
Thank you all for your words of encouragement, super helpful and I will take everything you guys said under consideration. I'm gonna try to cut the dosage in half, and if that doesnt work after a week I'm cutting it off altogether... Interesting tho…
