@pavand said: Hi guys, I wanted to start in the games section first, because of my low score, but don't want to miss any fundamentals which could later apply to LG. You definitely at least need the logic section—but I'd go in order! It's set up th…

@TheCubicleEscapee said: So tomorrow I will start my studying and I will hold off on a PT until I am ready to take one & have a better grasp on how to answer the questions... because I totally had a few what the heck did this just ask me moment…

@"Cher____" said: I'm going to try a morning study routine - 2hrs a morning. 4 to 5 hours on Saturday to study or prep test. That's about what I did!

@BruiserWoods said: @"Cant Get Right" my best scores have all been after 2+ week breaks too, interestingly enough. @"Cant Get Right" said: Yeah, it wouldn't surprise me if that was actually kinda typical @BruiserWoods . There's a lot to be said …

@TheCubicleEscapee said: I got in the 140s, the school I am hoping to get into I need about a 157 or greater (for the part time program) while I would love to score a 170 because uhhh that would be awesome I am trying to get in the 160-169 range, w…

@BruiserWoods said: How do you choose the content? I did random selections from a PT I just randomly had printed out. It was 60 or after.

@joecarterruskey said: How does this study plan sound I think this sounds good! One thing—make sure that every time you do a PT you do: 1) A warm-up, same as you'll do on test day (I did one LR section, one passage, couple of games in the hotel…

@westcoastbestcoast said: The "monsters" were the admins who ran the LSAT Mastermind study forum group. IMHO, bad advice.

@notwilliamwallace said: Also, some people here recommend that you skip the Logic Games part of the book, however, I covered it and found that LG topics were reinforced properly. I personally started with The Trainer method but have heavily adopt…

@BruiserWoods said: I was thinking of doing it as timed, individual sections. What are your thoughts on this? Personally? I wouldn't hesitate to do it as timed sections. I found so much benefit from doing individual sections leading up to the Febr…

@BruiserWoods said: I'm apprehensive to take 77 as a full-timed PT for two reasons: first, I'm running out of time and I don't want to burnout (I just took 74 this week); second, I hear its a rough one and i'm terrified it'll shake my confidence be…

@joecarterruskey said: That's interesting....the folks at top law school forums are big advocates of taking practice tests, and see that as the only way to improve. Yeah they seem to be fans of brute forcing generally. You've already done PT's. Yo…

@joecarterruskey said: Haha that's all I needed to hear; definitely will take today off....my BR has been crap so far. I recommend a full-on Netflix or video game binge ... Fallout 4 Far Harbor or Overwatch

@westcoastbestcoast said: Specifically are you guys going to take an exam on June 4th? June 5th? Nooooooooo way. @westcoastbestcoast said: Some have recommended taking an exam almost everyday in the last week leading up to the exam to be dialed…

@BruiserWoods said: wait, are you saying that circle games aren't nasty pattern games? Circle games are just sequencing games that don't terminate on one side or the other. Not a big deal but you want to make sure they don't freak you out. Patter…

@juneby01 said: can anyone suggest the more relevant game to go over I'm taking the June 2016 test and really want to focus on what it might be on the test versus all of the games Make sure your circle games are on point. One appeared on last Febr…

@jsumlin23 said: Is their anything I can read to improve my humanities section. Seems like with humanities I seem to have to re-read sentences a lot. I completely ignore subject matter and am addicted to reading for reasoning structure. You gotta…

@BruiserWoods said: okay good. I know that the LSAC is sometimes a lil bitter about accommodated testing, so I was a little concerned that they might throw some experimental bs on my test or something else scary. I would be prepared for circle ga…

Yeah take the rest of today off. Pretty much any time when you're like "I need a break!" it's because you really need one. Take the rest of today off, see how 72 treats you, and I'd even advocate splitting the rest of your retakes up into separate …

@BruiserWoods said: In the past 24 hours, I received two separate emails reassigning both my test center AND my test date for the June exam. Wow, WTF? @BruiserWoods said: if I'm taking my test several days after people on June 6, should I expec…

@"Chipster Study" said: At the decided risk of being a killjoy, the data are clear that alcohol negatively impacts memory retention and learning. If you were my patient, I would counsel no alcohol. Ditto.

@Alejandro said: Pick one first, finish it, and then supplement with the other. This!

@aaronjaber said: I used to get relatively the same score on both, but on the past couple of tests, I've scored really well on one (usually the first) and very poorly on the other. It sounds like you've been taking the more recent LSAT—this is de…

@TheCubicleEscapee said: I am waiting to take my diagnostic tomorrow and then I am diving right in. thx! Rooting for you!

@"edenmarcu-1" said: I am taking the June 2016 test and do not feel ready. Postpone! Postpone! Never take it if you're not feeling ready. Who cares what it "looks like"—this is one of YOUR three takes and you must claim it for your victory! And i…

Chances being better (to the point of rushing apps) early in the cycle is HIGHLY overemphasized. I got into NU with $90k as a super splitter off of a February score and an app dropped ON the deadline. I was admitted within 2 weeks of going complete …
