I’ve had some drops. Part of it for me is that I’m getting too confident. I’m not spending enough time considering the answer for another second. I’m choosing quickly and moving on. I reminded myself yesterday: respect every question. If not, it wil…
During the July test the woman next to me frantically flipped her test book over and over again. She slammed it every 3-5 seconds on the table. It was insane. I asked to move. The room was pretty big, so I could get far enough away from her that it …

how much time during real lsat will we get to take breaks in between each 35 minute section ?
No time at all. They say, “Turn the page and start the next section.” You do three 35 minute sections in a row, just like th…
Nothing is hard as a really hard strengthen/weaken. The hardest ones absolutely baffle me (that one about the ancient Irish weapon/talking stick...holy shit). One approach I have with these is I don’t spend a lot of time predicting the answer. Becau…
I don’t read the q stem first, so when I see that it’s an SA I generally have a good sense of how the argument made the jump. I quickly draw out the lawgic (but not always, sometimes you can just see it), figure out the answer, and then find it. Thi…
I take a full PT on Friday and then only review answers on Saturday because I’m so burnt out. I also work about 50 hrs/week and reading and writing is a part of my job so I think it has an impact.
The general wisdom is to do one timed 35 minute sec…
My ID pic (took the test twice) was a selfie I took against a plain wall. Not too many shadows, though. If you're unsure, you could always just upload a new one. You have plenty of time.
You too! My good friend has a full scholarship to Brooklyn on a 164 LSAT/3.5 GPA. I'm hopeful that I could get scholarship money from them, but I also saw from BLS's 509 report that they give very few full scholarships. St Johns, on the other hand, …
Kind of odd topic but did NY Law give you scholarship money? I’m hoping for a full ride to Brooklyn Law, but would accept a full ride to NYLS if need be.
Brooklyn law school has beautiful apartments in Brooklyn Heights. St John’s housing is atrocious. Not sure about Fordham. My buddy went to Columbia and I used to hang in the dorms and they’re nice.
I don’t have a type of question I skip (it used to be parallel method but now I think they’re fairly easy to do so I don’t like to skip them). But if a question isn’t making sense, and by that I mean, I don’t like any of the answers, I’ll read it ag…
In knowing the area, I would say it's going to be quiet. If you have a chance and it's convenient, I highly recommend taking it at Fordham Law. The rooms are totally soundproof and super comfortable.
Do the questions that ask for information clearly stated in the passage first. Then do the questions that involve inferences. Do the Main Point question last. After I started doing that I rarely got any questions wrong, unless I really didn’t unders…
With some Sufficient Assumption and MBT questions, I think you have to do it because there's just too many variables to keep in your head---the LSAT writers do it that way on purpose to confuse you. Other than that you just have to find what works b…

Just got out. I had LG LR LG RC LR.
We had the same test. How'd you feel? I was way more confident with the sections after the break.

Re strengthening, some questions (the easier ones) are clearly leading you in the stimulus to where the gap is in the relationship. In those questions, you can see it and anticipate the answer. In the harder ones, (generally questions 15-25, but not…
Not sure if I'm saying anything original here, but a clear-cut method for looking where to split is a variable in the rules that is mentioned multiple times. It's very restricted, so that's usually a good place to start looking to split. If you don'…
I'm definitely breaking it down as I read, but I don't think mainly in terms of "this is a premise; this is the conclusion" (though I definitely am always establishing the conclusion). When I read a stimulus, I mainly consider the key variables that…
There are many different resources, but I would just recommend sitting and focusing on your breath for 5 minutes. If 5 minutes is too long, try three minutes. Carve out some quiet time when you can just sit.
