going digital? how is that going to work with logic games?
I wonder if this could have any effect on the difficulty of games going forward. My gut tells me it most likely will not, but I could totally see it being a potential…
This is very dependent on you and how you can best keep track of arguments and logic. Check out this Webinar for a bit of a deeper dive: https://classic.7sage.com/webinar/when-to-actually-diagram-in-lr/
I think it would make more sense to find a way to instantly score paper tests and provide digitally formatted analytics to test takers. The results could come out 24 hours after the exam date to ensure there is no opportunity for cheating by communi…
@"forest.dearing.2017" Could you maybe post a tentative schedule of the meetings? I would be down to meet every other day if there is interest in doing them that often.
Try many different strategies and see which one helps you develop the most confidence, allowing you to go through LR almost unconsciously. RC is a great example of this with the paragraph summaries. The intent behind this is to force you to consider…

Can I make a suggestion? (I'm guessing your answer is "go ahead".) Obviously, if we were all more altruistic, it would be a top priority of ours to help others. But some of us are not that altr…
Find solace and confidence in all of your practice and skills. Know that you have seen most of LSAC's tricks and that they are just trying to paralyze you with fear. Take stock of what pieces you have left and try to keep moving. Don't be afraid to …
For strengthen try to focus on what the conclusion is really saying. Often times trap answer choices will sound really good but be slightly inconsistent with what the argument is trying to conclude. Always ask yourself how to make the premise become…
Thanks for your response. I’m sorry I meant I’m looking for the weird games to practice. I’ve heard about a Dino game and some other games. I just want to get in practice on the weird and harder games people have run across.
The Dinosaur game i…

@"Lucas Carter" thanks for the advice! I may sound like a noob so forgive me, but how do you record yourself? Just on like MacBook photo booth or something? Additionally, I’ve heard of people doing that before but I was alwa…
I have been seeing lots of improvement by recording myself doing one passage and reviewing the recording and looking at where pretty much every second of my time went. It will obviously vary for you but I found that I had room to read the passages m…
@"Lucas Carter" when you say record, do you mean literally video record? I have tried marking my time splits after various questions/games but find that often interrupts the flow and feels forced so would be curious how you specifically you recor…
Timed sections help a ton and maybe recording yourself to see where your time sinks are happening and what your thought processes are during these. I found that my time sinks were mostly panic/stress induced. JY is a big advocate of putting your pen…

Sorry to hear you’re getting frustrated. BR scores can feel bittersweet!
Are you aware of what situations evoke the panic for you?
I’m the majority of cases, the best way to handle the time pressure is to be R…
This varies widely per person based on your starting point and how easily games come to you. That being said it is really important to take Foolproofing seriously and at a pace that works for you because mastery of games is achievable for most peopl…
A huge reason that I like 7Sage so much is that JY is so relatable. It feels like one of my good friends is walking me through LSAT prep, not a boring professor or textbook. I watched a few of the Khan academy videos and to me it is as if a robot is…
Thank you for posting this. It feels better knowing that there are others in the same boat. This adversity will only make our future successes that much sweeter!!
I also went -13 on LR. This was very far above my norm and super deflating. However, I am motivated to bounce back and get a 170+ in December. Stay positive, we got this!!!

Overheard: How long is each section?
Real LSATs taken prior: ~35
How many questions guessed: 1 or 2 - educated guesses though
Expected Score: Not where I wanted . I think probably mid-to-high 160s.

Don't mean to hijack thread but would you guys recommend jumping right into post 60 RC drills after completing the CC? I have LR and LG down pat and plan on writing in Sept but am just starting RC.
