Absolutely stop studying! Burn out is REAL and the only way to get past it is to stop. It sounds like you need a minimum of a few days, maybe even a week off. There's very little you can do in 2 weeks before a test to improve your score, but trying…

@akeegs92 said: @"marino.zach" said: Wow! This just might be perfect for me. I'm wondering if it'll be a 12:30 exam like June or the standard 8:30. Anyone have any more info? I was thinking the same thing! This new date i…

Yeah unfortunately it’s not an option. When I had study time on transit, I’d try to print out games or sections to work on and drill.
-
Ooooooh intriguing! Anyone heard if that is for sure disclosed? I don't know if any of the new ones will be undisclosed.
-
My only other tip for flaw questions is that sometimes when I am stumped, especially if you can narrow it down to 2-3 options, I'll analyze the answers by seeing if they solve anything in the stimulus. The answer choices are giving you potential pro…

@"Seeking Perfection" said: On occassions where I was running out of time at the end of sections I would make an exception and bubble as I went. Agreed on this point - if I'm running out of time toward the end, say past the 5 minute mark and…

I definitely wouldn't do more than 2, possibly 3 prep tests per week. One per day is way too much. You'll burn out and won't have energy for the actual test. It also doesn't leave enough time for a proper BR of the entire test, which is crucial. I …

Unfortunately, no I don't think so. I would love that possibility too but I don't believe that's a function.
-
Yep, same as @uhinberg. I think it's the most efficient way that also prevents mistakes. Some people advocate not bubbling until you are finished with the entire section, or hit the 5 minute warning. I think bubbling that many in at a time would be …

Thanks for the input guys, that's what I was thinking. In my line of work, it's a faux pas to be too formal so I felt awkward going with Mr/Ms but I was thinking that was probably the right move. Thanks!

Basically, now is when you start drilling and foolproofing games. You don't necessarily need the bundle to do that. Just start with the earliest tests you have available and begin working through them. You can use the question bank to search for qu…

I got a similar email too, news to me! Good to know that a school can see when you begin an application.

Hi there! Yes, there are absolutely people around here who have gone from the 140s into the 170s. Our resident sage in these matters is @"Cant Get Right". There's also a webinar here detailing a few of these stories: https://classic.7sage.com/webina…

Just to confirm, it looks like you're not a member of the 7sage LSAT course. Is that correct? There are some fantastic webinars with study strategies if you are planning on signing up for the course. That aside, I would do a little bit of both. Bli…

I honestly have no helpful advice, I'm in a similar predicament. I've always done really well with verbal/reading type tests too and for some reason, RC is a beast that I just cannot conquer. I'm mostly here to say... oh my GOSH you are living the …

I also second the plan of taking the day before off if you can. I took the day off work, treated myself to my favorite breakfast sandwich, went on a short bike ride, saw a fun movie (Thor Ragnarok, awesome), ate a healthy dinner, laid out my warm up…

Absolutely take minimum 3-4 days off. Let that virus get out of your body and give your brain a break!

Thank you so much @10000019 @"Paul Caint" @"adi.pickles" and @xtrfalcon I ended up starting one more re-write so going to finish that tonight and then hopefully hit one or two of you up if you are still game. Thank youuuu!

I'm not quuuuite to the 170 mark yet, but consistently scoring 169/168 on PTs with an official 168 in December. I started with a 155 diagnostic in March of 2017 and it took me until about late November to make it to the high 160s. I've put studying …

@westcoastbestcoast said: Hey @"Leah M B" Do you know if those schools will hold off seeing your app until your february exam scores post? Not sure on all their policies, but I know that schools can see you are registered for future tests. …

You're most likely ok. Some schools do ask that you disclose even minor traffic violations, but I don't think I've seen one that asked for parking tickets. (Feel free to correct me on that if I'm wrong, 7sagers!) It generally varies by each school t…

@uhinberg said: Very realistic with your diagnostic, if you're willing to work. But if you are set on NYU, Columbia, Harvard, or Yale, I'd aim a bit higher -- in the 172-175 range. +1 You're at a great starting point and have a realistic ti…

Here's a link to all the dates for the the June LSAT: https://www.lsac.org/jd/lsat/test-dates-deadlines/2018-2019/us-canada-june You'd need to withdraw by May 15 to receive a refund. However, you only get $50 back so you would still be out $130. I…

You're doing great, and the time will definitely come down as you keep repeating the games. Glance over the guide to foolproofing again for the strategy: https://classic.7sage.com/lesson/fool-proof-guide-to-perfection-on-logic-games/ Basically, do …

Every app is different on the minor traffic problems. Some do say "excluding minor traffic violations" and some want everything (University of Washington specifically wants any traffic violations whatsoever included). I have one ticket that was dism…
