I'm just drinking coffee beforehand. Don't want coffee in my system during the exam - gonna pee But for a snack, I'm bringing chocolate-covered espresso beans hehe
-
So I don't know how long the review process takes. But I just sent in my transcripts and whatnot yesterday. This can take ~2-3 weeks to process (including the time it takes your university registrar to mail over your transcripts; try to be proactive…

REALLY REALLY REALLY EARLY

I didn't think the section was too bad. But those two rule substitution questions :'(

@"Alex Divine" Haha no RC?!

I came into college wanting to be a doctor. However, within my first year at university I was exposed to so many problems in the world that I personally had never been exposed to before - namely inequality (whether that be economic, social, etc.). …

I'm taking one tomorrow too brother! Then taking Thursday and Friday completely off. I say go for it.
-
I think they just made those questions harder on the more recent tests
-
Ah. I remember this question well. I think it ate up like 2 minutes of my time the first go through, and then another minute on my second go through. Tough question! Like @AllezAllez21 said, the key phrase that makes D wrong is "if each of the comm…

Gotta be able to tune people out. Tbh, I highly recommend if you have a hard time reading something because of distractions covering your ears with your hands. You may look silly, but a good LSAT score isn't silly at all! I've done this while takin…

To me the rankings are kind of silly...US News and World Report weights "Reputation" as 40% of a school's ranking score. How in the world are smaller or newer universities supposed to compete with that?
-
Yeah I wouldn't bank on this being easy. Transfer admissions are also based on how many students also transferred/left the T-14 school, aka how many spots are open is contingent upon people leaving. As T-14 schools are hard to get into, you can ima…

Yes, you are Latino and Hispanic. Being such may give you a boost in admissions, but I wouldn't bank on it to make you a shoe-in for any school.
-
I can second @"Alex Divine" 's comment. I tried to do a test a day. NOT a good idea. Learn the fundamentals first! And then do maximum 4 preptests a WEEK.
-
The RC passages, and particularly PT 81 (I took it yesterday), are very good at putting in information that sounds right but was never said. They typically do this by talking about what one group believes. AKA - a passage talks about "constructioni…

I would take PTs to begin to habituate yourself to timing. But after you do each PT, figure out which questions you had trouble with (BR) AND which questions took you a lot of time. If you see a pattern for a particular question type, drill that que…

A - humans are not scared, therefore they are not lightfooted. No cause, no effect.

@amw26 I just took 80 and 81 in the past week. I think they were pretty standard, they were kinda like the 70s tests, but I thought (especially 81) their games were a lot more cookie cutter. PT 80 has one strange game, but it's definitely doable.

I'm in Atlanta! Taking it at Herzing University. If end up coming here, I suggest avoiding Georgia State University.

You could be potentially burnt out. If you feel like you're having trouble even reading stimuli or your eyes feel super foggy, then you may just need time off the exam. Also, atleast personally I experienced massive differences in test scores at po…
-
Yeah. Don't even dare thinking that you can slack off on a section because it feels experimental - it's not worth it!
-
Wow! I'm surprised. In LG I thought the only unconventional question was Game 4, but you did well on it so I'm unsure. I actually found the RC to be a little bit difficult. Maybe you're just psyching yourself out/burning out? Idk. I wouldn't sweat …

Yaaaaaas
-
Take it! I took it yesterday. It's not too bad, but there's an interesting logic game it wouldn't hurt to be exposed to!

Bumping this. https://classic.7sage.com/lsat_explanations/lsat-80-section-4-question-22/ ^The little quips J.Y. makes making fun of t-rex had me lolling in the library
-
Eeeeh I'm unsure. But if it was in a parallel reasoning question I would try to find similar language being used in one of the answers. Like if one answer said "most" and another said "virtually every" I would select the "virtually every" one.
-
I do all those things. Not so much timed sections tho. 1st I hope you went all the way through core curriculum already if you're PTing. But yeah, I go basically blind review all my circled questions and then check all the ones I got wrong. For ones…

@"Dillon A. Wright" If I had the choice between taking a released preptest in these last two weeks and taking this preptest, which one should I do?
