Look at the answer choices. If it's a "maximum" question, test out the highest number first. Then work your way DOWN (second highest, third highest, etc.).
Do the opposite for "minimum" questions. For me, that's the most efficient way to approach th…
@stepharizona Nailed it. I did the the same thing for the Dec 15 test. I was informed by a LSAC rep that a withdrawal does not appear on your record. You may want to call just for reassurance. Yes, withdraw directly from the site. I don't think you …
@runiggyrun Some cell phone providers offer decent deals on their "portable" routers. I use one when I'm out of the house and want to study off of my laptop or phone.
There's actually a pretty simple way to figure this out.
Go to settings --> cellular. Scroll down and hit "Reset Statistics" (only do this if you don't need to know how much data you've used up to this point).
Open a 10 minute 7 Sage video. Wat…
Just a suggestion, use excel. Create an excel sheet. Label one row PT X, S X, Q X (test, section, question). Then, have one column labeled "Answer," one labeled "BR," and one labeled "R/W" (right or wrong). Keep the excel sheet open in the backgroun…
@hazelnut13 Hang in there. I'm sure I don't have to tell you, but it'll be worth it. Those few extra points that you'll likely gain on the LSAT because you decided to push through may end up being the reason you get into a top school.
I was in a s…
Here are a few videos to help you guys out - those still struggling with the fundamentals:

I have been informed that plenty of people walk out of their first take crying, slamming car doors, and yelling at innocent bystanders. Joking, but yes that is probably normal - scoring low, not yelling and slamming doors. Don't let it bring you dow…
You're better off taking your break after the 3rd section. That way you're more likely to experience that "Oh gosh! I'm tired!!!" feeling during PT so you can prepare for it for the actual test - or, increase endurance to combat it.
If you constant…
Hold up! Wait a minute! You were considering taking the real thing BEFORE trying BR? Push it back!
Rule of thumb, if you haven't scored at or above your target range at least 8 (arbitrary number) times, then don't take the upcoming test. It took lo…
Great advice! When I first started studying, a friend of mine would constantly say, "you've reached your peak, just take the test." After reading many of the stories provided by members here, I realized that the only peak is the one we call "180."
Great advice! I got the same advice from an instructor. For those of you who cannot or do not have time to drive out to the testing center, you should, at the very least call them. I was concerned about getting stuck in a room with those crammed des…
@stepharizona There comes a time when we all realize...that's the nature of the beast!
@KiruKiru Don't forget, most of the stimuli are just "duplicates" of past stimuli...they're just worded differently. Eventually you'll get to the point where you…
1) Yes, prephrase often refers to predicting what the answer could be prior to reading the answer choices.
2) I hate trying to predict the exact answer. It seems like a waste of time, unless you're doing a SA or MBT question. Instead, try predicti…
LG: Bubble after every section
LR: After every question, or after every page.
RC: Ask, "What the heck did I just read?" Answer questions, then bubble in after completing all of the questions. Or, after each question...whatever I feel will be most ef…
Who cares what the other test takers think...chances are you won't see half, or more, of them ever again.
Do you stretch every morning and night? You won't see the effects immediately, but over time your back may "loosen up."
My advice? Go get a m…
BR BR BR BR. You want to get to the point where flaws are easily identifiable and gaps just seem to bridge themselves. Maybe that's pushing it, but over time it gets easier. That's the point of drilling. The more you see the flaw or gap, the more re…
Why are you having a hard time focusing?
I've found that if it ever gets to the point where you just can't stand looking at another LSAT question, and you are really forcing yourself to study, it's best to take a day or two off. Heck, if it isn't g…
1) Put on my UCLA Law shirt that a buddy gave me. That way I know that if I don't get in, my friends and family will give me a hard time for the rest of my existence. That and I remind myself that I busted my butt during UG, and that throwing away m…
Negation: "Coffee is NOT the only substance she drinks, which contains caffeine."
It could hurt the argument. Or, possibly not. So what if she consumes something else which contains caffeine? Without any other premises, we can fairly assume that dai…
@mimimimi I gave that a shot. However, I only took 3 days off. I think I may need to finish up the portion of the curriculum that I am on, take a week off, and start again.
