Awesome @nicole.hopkins. Do you think it has helped with your LSAT prep? I signed up and have started playing some of the games, but I'm curious to see if anyone has seen any improvement to LSAT performance from using it.

Here are links to blog posts from other sites that list some of the hardest games: http://lsatblog.blogspot.com/2009/01/hardest-lsat-logic-games-list-hard.html http://www.powerscore.com/lsat/help/lg_10-hardest-logic-games.cfm

You could also request to defer admissions by a year.

If you are looking for advice from a law school consultant but you don't want to pay for one, there are several books written by consultants that may be helpful. I've started reading "How to Get into the Top Law Schools" by Richard Montauk. The bo…

I suggest making a list of words you have trouble with as you review RC questions and then memorize the definitions. Update the list whenever you come across new words.

Taking time off can actually be beneficial. It helps you rest and be more productive when you return. And even though you aren't directly doing LSAT work, your brain is still processing what you have worked on so far

Also the GMAC (the creator of the GMAT) offers GMAT prep software which includes 2 free practice tests and some additional practice questions. You can also buy two more practice tests and more practice questions through the software

19:00 for an LR section??!! Impressive

I started with Kaplan (in-person class) for GMAT prep, which was OK. Many of the methods are intuitive, but much of the material and practice questions were too easy if you are aiming for a score over 700. My score improved only slightly with Kap…

I also like to read articles from the NY Times "Room for Debate," which has 3-8 people weighing in on an issue from different perspectives. This is helpful for the comparative passages. There are a lot of good legal topics in Room for Debate, whi…

You also might see articles from Scientific American, which is helpful in preparing for science passages, cited in Prep Tests
-
If you look through the references at the back of Prep Tests, occasionally you will see an article from the Economist that was adapted for use either for an RC passage or for an LR question. Most of the articles are older (often 20-30 years), so th…

Could someone clarify what the Cambridge packets are?

I suggest reading things like the Economist and Scientific American regularly. Some people also recommend the New Yorker. They will get you in the habit of reading the types of passages that appear on the test and improve your reading skills. Als…

Awesome! Thank you

The New York Times has a feature called "Room for Debate," which has about 4-5 essays written about a specific topic. This provides good practice for the comparative reading passage.
-
The more recent tests (starting sometime around 2012) give you two pages for logic games. The older ones gave you only one page. Maybe this is what you are referring to?
-
I'm having the same issue. I'm not sure what the problem is.
-
I think you are limited to 3 scored tests within a 2 year period. Since you canceled your October test, you should be able to take it again in June 2015, but I would check with LSAC to be sure.
-
Also, the NY Times has something called "Room for Debate," where about 4-6 people weigh in on an issue from different angles. This is good practice for the comparative reading passages

I like to read both the Economist and Scientific American. Many of the articles in these magazines are written in a similar style to the RC passages on the LSAT. Some of the RC passages actually have come from older articles from the Economist and…
