I was also thinking in terms of wasting the time of people who are going to spend hours on an applicant that has no intent of attending. But perhaps you're right that it's all part of the game. I'd be interested to hear what @"David.Busis" has to sa…
One added piece of information: It might not be ethical to apply to a school that you have absolutely no intention of attending no matter what solely in order to use them as leverage in negotiating with other schools.
@"Alex Divine" At least we can rest assured that our pencil obsession is not some LSAT induced mania; there are clearly many others from other walks of life that are similarly obsessed.
There's actually a Powerscore drill by type for 20-40 also. It's out of print but available used.
But for miscellaneous games, 1-20 is far more useful, since until around PT 16 or so, there's at least one miscellaneous game per PT.

Hey so first relax. Breath and take a couple of days to collect yourself.
It is mid August. That gives you 3 and 1/2 months to study for this test. If you can dedicate significant time to studying your goal of a 170 is …
Aside from the miscellaneous game that abound in earlier preptests, which of the earlier games are not representative of what LSAC is likely to throw at us? Granted, some of the rules are a bit different (e.g. conditional rules in sequencing games) …
Like it or not, our writing utensils are one of the only things regarding LSAT that we have complete control over. We tend to take comfort in such things. Hence, the obsession.
As @bswise2 hinted, (D) is correct. Although the stimulus changes terms, they are basically the same, and don't leave a gap in the argument. To "satisfy" an artistic taste is to say that the person with that taste is aesthetically fulfilled.
Maybe a tutor would be a good idea to get a better handle on where you're going wrong and what you can do to get better. 7Sage has some approved tutors who are very reasonably priced.
Without answer choice A, one could have argued that perhaps these two substances were always produced in different geographical locations, in which case, one being discovered serendipitously while the other was being produced is impossible. Answer c…
I'd just point out that just b/c a location had roomy accommodations in the past does not guarantee that this will be the case in the future. They can switch around testing locations within one campus from administration to administration.
You can't do better than the core curriculum from 7Sage. You can get it by signing up for the Starter package. You have plenty of time to allow the concepts to seep in.
With a science and engineering background, I can't imagine that you won't be ab…
I think you are look to validate the argument, when the stem only asks to strengthen it. Remember, strengthen does not have to be by a lot; even a teency weency added support does the trick. Here, the fact that most of both substances are limited th…
There's really no silver bullet. The more attractive AC that now make POE more difficult require a more nuanced understanding of the passage, and making sure that every word is supported by the text.
@tringo335 Everyone is saying the same thing. The Sabbath observer test is different (read: will have different questions) than the one that is administered on the preceding Saturday, but is not qualitatively different than that test. Indeed, the Sa…
I don't think so. The argument is trying to say that they have no good evidence, so he doesn't exclude that possibility. The flaw in the reasoning is that the reason he gives for this being true doesn't hold water, b/c just b/c you are motivated by …
Actually, I think that the phrase "these vitamins" has to refer to Vitamins A and D. There is no other way to explain the word "these." It's a very tricky way to use referential phrasing, because it is not a clear way of writing, but it's gotta mean…
. We don't know how many child children have this gene-variant. It's just twice as prevalent in thrill-seeking children. It could be 4% to 2%. So there's absolutely no weakening by saying that many adults who are impulsive are not sensitive to dopam…
It's not really a question of throwing us for a loop; it's the only real way to purely test analytical reasoning ability. Regurgitating inferences you've memorized doesn't really show the ability they're testing for. It's just much easier to keep th…
Quickly browsing the games is anyway a good idea. Sometimes, it is clear that the third game is the hardest, and it might be a good idea to leave that for last.
As an aside, I was thinking: If LSAC really wanted to test Analytical Reasoning ability…
I would venture to say that if time was not an issue, there would probably be an advantage to looking at the questions before RC, too. Alas, for most, time would be an issue.
Stem first. PS is basically the only prep company that advocates stimulus first, and though they claim to have to come to this from decades of working with students, it's hard to understand their logic. They argue that reading the stim first forces …
