Plus if you really feel that its an issue, postpone your test... there are people who have done that and it has worked for them... just make sure you can set out the right amount of time to study when you take it... i.e, weeknights should be yours a…

gets better with BR and time

Shit I messed up major in my most recent test... fell to a 159 from my average of 167
-
Get up 6:00 in the morning... go for a 20 min jog.. small cup coffee (black) - a cup of oats and a banana (things that will keep me full but not stuffed and not give an immediate high but release steady energy over a longer period) 2 easy games - on…
-
Redo the theory and practice... write out your reasons for why each answer choice should be correct according to you or should not be... when you train your intuition this way, things start to become clearer. Often, we get stuff wrong or right based…

Treat it like another day... another PT... no pressure... trust your training and everything will be fine... in the larger scheme of things, this is just one test... if by chance it gets messed up or the results are less than what you consider optim…

I mean every game in the LSAT game syllabus of the ultimate package - the lessons listed by type... not the extra games added at the end from PT 1 - 35... I'm doing those now as timed drills...
-
Around 6 odd days.. I had planned to be done in 5 but it stretched out a little coz I started going slow in the end due to fatigue... but that was all I did during those days... and also... I was repeating the theory as I went along which took time…

The flaws fall into certain kinds of categories... for example... part to whole, ad hominum attack, confusing necessary and sufficient... one you go thru a lot of these questions, the categories will start repeating and your ability to detect them w…

@ Christian Jack Wayne ...That is not entirely accurate... you can still make tremendous strides in the last week... I had a 5 point jump in my scores in the last week and got around there on my test. Not that I was happy with that as I think I can …
-
Take that call closer to the date... like 3 - 4 days before... the major improvements can happen during the last month. Its a small trade off... 150 odd dollars vs 2 more months of pain.
-
I second that... I'm one of those who felt this way and (painfully) sat thru the whole process of solving EVERY single game from the sets of the ULTIMATE package by type and now games are easier for me.
-
What I'm doing is checking for a trend of wrong LR questions over a set of a few tests and if a pattern emerges then RETOOLING with respect to those particular areas (by going through the foundations and problem sets again) and finally drilling some…

do a mix... say about 4 - 8 odd PTs with 5 sections ( I would personally err on the side of 4) it helped me peak near exam day. But this is just my personal experience... with no statistical correlation what so ever.
-
This is REALLY valuable info... thanks a lot guys. Just the discussion I was looking for.
-
Your scores (more so the 164) are the anomaly that proves the rule... don't worry about them right now... of course this can happen and you may get a comparatively low score or high score as compared to your average (in the range of what you have on…
-
Alice... its realistic and completely possible and tonnes of people do it every year... Of course not everyone makes that jump and you don't necessarily have to in order to go to a top law school ( a high 160's score would serve you just as well unl…
-
I used the games from the biggest package here... but if you get the logic games bible, then there are game types from each prep-test listed at the back, you can pull those from earlier PTs, create your own sets and use them and if you want to do th…
-
@joseigsaldana the one that worked for me was solving a tonne of games by type... that is really it... everyone who takes the LSAT can have 22 marks for the taking if they practice games properly... and PRACTICE is indeed the key... games, games and…
-
Do what feels right... nobody knows you better than your self and what works for the majority may not work for you... but yes... anecdotal accounts suggest that taking a few days off helps... I don't follow this however... If I fee like I need a day…

No, a few years ago, it may have but right now, applications to law schools are so low that applying after the December test is no disadvantage at all. I applied in Jan and got thru 3 top tire (25 - 35 range) schools with scholarships.
-
Also... if that is the case then you might think putting off the test... December is not a bad option for this year if you can get a better score than you would this time round...
-
Yeah you should wait for your score... and I got the sense from your post that you are a little worried about your grades, don't be overly concerned about your GPA... the LSAT is at least as important if not more... and law schools know that things …
-
@turnercm thanks for that... I was beginning to panic a little... I'll just do a ton of passages before the actual thing...
-
Yeah... That is right... give the question its due during the 1.5 odd minutes that you spend on it and then forget about it and move on... only come back if you have time...
-
Ok the first part of that description read like Q. 6 Sec. 1 PT 38 - flaw weakening...
-
Hi Nick... I think the best thing to do would be to hold off until you can get your best score... take this from someone who is giving the test a second time round... prepping once thoroughly and giving the test is always a better idea than doing it…
-
Might not be impossible to replicate... but then you don't exactly know if it has been replicated right... and it has been recommenced time and time again by LSAT prep experts that you use nothing but genuine LSAT questions for prep. I mean are you …
-
Haha speaking of which, I'm beginning to see LSAT questions in everything including Facebook exchanges on status updates - for example: Sean: "Towers and temples are the luxury of princes. A simple and independent mind does not toil at the bidding…

Say anyone got tips for RC timing.. that is my water loo... I have good accuracy... but on the later tests i.e. the ones after 36, I am missing an entire passage... while games was my Achilles heel in the last administration.. It seems that this tim…
