I'm actually with @"vanessa fisher" on this one. The vocabulary on the LSAT is one tool the question writers have to try and make a question harder.
Words like phenomena are used all the time on the test. What is a phenomena? It's just a thing. The…

I am almost done learning LR as part of the CC. JY uses diagrams often, when explaining the answers. So far, I am doing really well without using any diagrams. Does this mean I am naturally good at LR,or do most people not use d…

I think you need to take the test when you are ready to take it. December is not to late to apply to schools. A higher LSAT score can secure you more money at the schools you apply to, and even change the schools you get into. I would highly suggest…
@partyondudes This is what I was looking for! Thank you, I'll give it a shot. Some sort of mental way to shake off the distraction faster instead of letting it take me completely out of the test.
@acsimon
Skip hard questions - ones with stimulus I struggled with or AC I don't understand
Questions where I'm 50/50, do a best guess and move on while circling the question
Not really sure what other skipping strategies are out there. If it's …

@LSATcantwin : perhaps we misunderstand each other. Just because you always finish on time doesn't mean that time is not an issue. For instance, if you tend to finish with two minutes left, then I can see how that 5 min announce…
@10000019 yes, if they spoke loud enough to interrupt every person taking the test, it would disrupt me.
@acsimon I said in my post it's not a timing issue. I finish every section in time. It's more of losing 20-30 seconds when I am startled by th…

@LSATcantwin lol ouch to the procrastinators...
I'm the king trust me. I'm so bad, I've convinced myself that by trying to answers others questions on here, that I am in fact studying.....
Hence the Silver award haha

I haven't taken too many timed LSAT exams, but in undergrad I had a lot of exams where it wasn't plausible to finish the entire exam (I recall being ecstatic over 40%'s).

It is important to understand the stimuli the best we can no matter what we are doing. In the case of long stimulus for MBT and MSS questions it actually might be more simple than you think. In many cases the correct AC falls between two premise tha…

@LSATcantwin great advice, thank you. Can I ask when you say "drills" are these questions from the CC that you re-practice? I guess I'm a bit confused on what drills are?
I guess I'm just worried whatever I study, it won'…

I think the easiest way to look at these, at least for myself, is to change the term "claim" into conclusion.
It is cited as some evidence against the conclusion
It is cited as a direct contradiction of the conclusion
etc.
Then you really just h…

I think you're asking the wrong questions.
You will never really hit your potential. There will always be room for some sort of improvement. Even with an occasional score of 180 people can still improve.
What I think you really want to ask is; whe…

Normally I'd agree with you. LR is really starting to wear me down though. I just can't grasp it. When I review I'm getting sick of the feeling of;
"well you were stuck between A and B, it's very obviously B, so why the hell did you choose A?"
