I've made the decision to eat healthier and cut alcohol out of my diet entirely. (I cheated a bit and waited to start the alcohol part until after my buddies bachelor party last weekend though ). Those are easy and you'll likely hear them recomme…

@Mellow_Z This may have been asked, so if so, I apologize. Is there a way to do some of the PT's 1-35 at least half of the time, rather than the clean PT's 36-80 that we are saving for closer to the test date (for those of …
If you guys are all cool for staying until 11, I like that idea. I got the feeling that a lot of people wanted to split at 10 (which was when I had to go as well due to work stuff early this morning), but I think we can do it in 4 hours as well.
I…

That's a good question. It's so far off for me I haven't even considered. I've always wanted to try LSD but I'm guessing that weekend might not be the best time....
Damn. First the lines of addy, now LSD.. you'll fit ri…

I would be down for an earlier start time on Sundays if people wanted to review more of the material i.e. RC + LG. Personally I'm more interested in solely LR.
Yeah that's why I don't want to change the core timing. I wan…
If the ticket says "report by x", you want to be there by that time for check-in. I'd say half an hour earlier than that just to allow yourself some wiggle room in case you have trouble finding the building or classroom.
@tcookPHL said:
I vote either earlier start time or break it up into sections, earlier RC/LG and later LR. I think LR would give us the greatest benefit to discuss, it's hard to keep momentum on RC when there's so much you have to review befor…

We do need to break it up, it seemed like that people did 2 sections and then we called it a night/day/Hawai'i luau. Maybe it's early and once people get settled, it'll be more streamlined.
Break it up meaning what? Into…

If exercising is part of your morning routine, I think you should do the same on the day of the LSAT. Otherwise, I don't think it's beneficial. It might exhaust you.
Agree with this. If you build it into your routine for we…
Yeah piggy backing on the above, there is no recipe or formula to being prepared. If you are an LSAT prodigy you could be scoring in the high 170's without more than a few weeks of prep. You need to figure out how comfortable you are with the test…
Something that has really stuck with me, was the advice to seek other means of touching up these skills. Examples of this are some of the other LSAT Books (Manhattan, Power Score, The LSAT Trainer). I really found that manhattan made a great book …

@Mellow_Z I finished the test today, but I am still in the process of doing the BR. Are you recording today's session?
Sorry! I haven't checked the forums since last night. We didn't record it unfortunately.
I would do it before. If you set it up you will get lots of emails with fee waivers for applications if you do decent on the test. (Which you mentioned).
It will also allow you to get the rest of your application uploaded while you wait for your …
@imhungryimtired said:
Hello! Very excited to join this thread. Just to confirm: we take the practice test before the scheduled call on Sunday and then just talk about it together on Sunday during the scheduled time (for three hours)? Just …
I think during the CC or after the CC (before PTing) is probably the best time to do it. If games don't come naturally, you will likely need to do some LG work every week to keep the skills fresh in your brain, so might as well start early I guess?…

Isn't gum banned?
Yeah it is during the test. They are implying chew gum up until you start when you have to dispose of it, and chew it during your break.

I am planning on eating a protein bar and a line of adderall.
Disclaimer: I am joking about the protein bar.
Hahahah I definitely lol'd. Well played sir. I can stand behind this method. This is TCR.

Thanks for all the responses! It is a MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013) with a 2 GHz Intel Core i7 processor, OS version 10.12.4. I recently cleaned out a bunch of useless files, freeing up more memory (which seems…
At this rate, it will be years before there is a wide-scale adoption of GRE. With that being said, ABA won't be reporting median scores for the GRE students since not everyone accepts it. Without them reporting GRE scores, there will still be a pr…
When I took the digital LSAT I didn't even open my snack. I definitely would recommend bringing a water (or whatever to drink). I think trailmix is a great option like Cant Get Right said.. that's what I chose as well. Just make sure whatever you…

I'm interested in learning about RC skipping strategies!
If you guys ask about skipping strategies for RC can you please post your notes afterward? I have a commitment I can't skip tonight so I won't be able to attend, but …
For anyone that is a while out (september and beyond), it would be interesting if you/we made comments on your PT's about days that you (worked out, ate healthy, ate poorly, hours slept, hours studies, etc) to see what the actual correlation there i…

He's also projecting that all of the existing dates get reshuffled. Instead of Feb/June/Sept/Dec and then adding supplement mon…

Yep, it's open to everyone. Feel free to just stop by if you'd like to see what it's about, or take the PT and participate!
