  • @"Harrison Pavlasek" said: Hmmmm, this timed confidence thing. I'm really intrigued, @LSATcantwin do you feel like it was useful? I also have the same thing happen to me with LR where I won't do as hot as I'd like and BR and get all right. Y…
  • @"Cant Get Right" said: Yeah, it seems crazy at first. I was right where you were, finishing (most of the time) with maybe only a minute or two to spare. The first element of speed is knowing your shit. Your BR performance suggests you've got …
  • @"Cant Get Right" said: This sounds like timing and confidence to me. After my first time through an LR section, I'm frequently at -4/-5. The difference is, I've got 10 minutes left at that point. When I go back, I usually correct pretty much …
  • @jkatz1488 said: let it out, man. where are you at in LR currently? and where are your other sections? Right now LR can go anywhere from -2 to -7 Reading comp goes -2 to -8 LG is almost always -1. Somehow it always balances out to a …
  • You can wake up the day after the test and say, "I did my absolute best, and put maximum amount of effort into it" Or "I didn't do everything I could have, and now I have to pay for it." Days like today are what make the difference. You know you…
  • Ultimate+ has a lot of advantages, not just access to harder questions but just more stuff in general. To answer your question more directly having access to more study materials can never hurt you. In fact I'm at a point in my studying where thos…
  • As another Vet looking to go to law school, Pro/Con marks mean nothing to people out side the military. What would benefit you is if you can get your Captain to write you a letter of recommendation that addressed in less technical terms exactly how …
  • I have the exact same problem. Whenever I go back and review, I almost instantly see what answer is right, and why the one I picked is wrong. I continue to miss questions during the test though. I also would like to know how to start fixing this pro…
  • Currently I'm stuck. My LG are solid but my LR and RC are going back and forth with each other. Two weeks ago I was going -2 to -3 in LR but like -8 on RC. Now I'm going like -2 on RC and -6 on LR. It's so frustrating!!
  • @kkrystyna said: does anyone NOT use one? I notice that my internal timer just works better than an analog. Analog is hard for me to keep time with. Honestly I don't look at the time during practice right now. I finish each section on time. …
  • It seems to be a common theme on 7sage that burning PT's is a bad thing unless you have a solid understanding of the CC/LSAT basics. While I agree having fresh tests is important to improving, I'd argue it's not the most important part of studying …
  • This seems like one of those situations where you should call and explain it directly to the LSAC. I can speculate as to what they might do, but I think that will be your best bet.
  • @combsni said: @LSATcantwin Yeah he does Well, damn. I was trying to attack it sort of like an LR problem. You ASSUME! It didn't work. Hey, but don't let it stand in your way. Great for him for having that awesome job. You can do awesome to…
  • One small tip that hasn't been stated that has helped me a ton is the analytics section. After about 4-5 tests I really could see a weakness in where I was. I was able to use the CC (as well as the PowerScore Bibles and LSAT Trainer) to fill in thes…
  • @combsni said: So I'm going to UCHI this fall and I just had an interesting conversation with an old friend who is going to the University of Toledo Law and they were bragging about how they have average grades and have a job with Butzel Long.…
  • @"Alex Divine" said: @LSATcantwin Hey man, you're username says it all the 165 to 170 plateau can be difficult to break, but it is doable. I actually think that if someone can hit 165+ they have the ability to hit a 170. This is where you mig…
  • @"Connie Lingus" Thanks I'll keep it up. I can't just let these dreams and goals pass me by. I'll have to just work extra hard on the LSAT. @"Alex Divine" Hey! Thanks for the encouragement. I think it's time to double down on the LSAT, it looks lik…
  • @"Alex Divine" said: @LSATcantwin said: Good morning 7sagers! (or afternoon, or whatever!) I have a quick question for everyone. As of right now I go roughly -4 to -5 on any given LR section. I took a full timed PT this we…
  • @Zachary_P said: @LSATcantwin I was (and to some degree still is) in the same boat. I've come a long way on RC, but when I miss a question, the odds that its an "InferAuthorPersp" question is high. Since I haven't totally mastered these types …
  • I'm still have to take the exam but my dreams keep getting more and more strange. I think my last one was thanks to @CinnamonTea haha. I had a dream that my pencil couldn't fill the bubbles in. I got really worked up and kept saying "13 A, 13 A, 13 …
  • I got the trainer about a month ago because I was feeling very stuck. I read through it and it gave me a new perspective on things I already knew. I skipped the LG portion because that is a section I feel fairly comfortable with. With LR however, I …
  • Yes, I think this is very realistic. @NathanMMolina already directed you toward what I believe will help you. Pure exposure to this test alone will help you become faster, and more accustom to each section. For LG and LR this is especially true. Do …
  • If you go to the CC under the "MSS" section there are 13 MSS question drill sets. These have roughly 5 questions per set, and they allow you to print. I would start with these as they give you a good chunk to work with and JY has videos on them. If…
  • @extramedium said: @LSATcantwin said: Is there a list of all the NA questions from every test that I can find somewhere? I don't think every test, but there are 21 Drills for them in the Core Curriculum. Each drill contains ab…
  • @jkatz1488 said: I believe all of the content is written specifically for the LSAT. I remember reading that in the LSAT Trainer. They "trim" things down from original works. They also sometimes add in their own flair. Most of the time it is …
  • At the end of the prep test look for the Acknowledgment page, they list the publications there. Edit: Also it seems quite common for people to suggest The Economist as a publication to read.
  • @akeegs92 said: @LSATcantwin said: Yes I time myself whenever I am doing questions. I personally feel that I need to always incorporate time to keep me on my feet. That way it always feels as close to test day conditions as possibl…
  • @akeegs92 said: @"Alex Divine" Ah I see what you mean now. Yes, my success rate has gone up when I have shown discipline and marked up my stimulus and focused on the core parts. Not super consistent yet but I have seen the benefits. @LSAT…
  • @akistotle said: @LSATcantwin said: This sounds like the name of a progressive Indy band. The Chronic Bubbling Errors will go on tour next week and are sure to play their #1 hit "I Had to Pee during Section 4" http://imgur.…
  • What I have done for LR, particularly with Flaw and NA questions is as follows. For NA questions I did this; Printed out the 21 NA question sets from the CC Answer 5 questions at a time Bought a notebook to record my work FOR CORRECT ANSWERS: …
