I thought LG was easy from someone who usually doesn't ace the section anyways, now all this anxiety around the mining game on the forums is making me nervous i totally missed some key details or something lol. I feel like mining game was super sim…

please predict the writing prompt thats why we are all here

Firstly, dont worry about a few bad tests. It's possible your doing more recent tests where RC is harder, and variance and burnout are also a thing. Just focus on improving or at this point just relaxing!

Honestly, do what you feel is right for you. I think it's good advice to give your brain a break for at least 48 hours before the test, but for some people slogging thru a weaker section/ going hard is what works for them. sitting around and tryin…

this is a great explination. You're right, specifically they never said that the soil was caused by the chems, and I'm making a leap. Thanks for taking the time to write a great response, it's much appreciated .

I focused on getting myself really hyped. I think the scientific explination for why this is helpful is because when you become really anxious, it can trigger your fight or flight response. You cant really turn this response off, but what you can …

I think this is a really bad diversity statement topic, personally. Diversity is about how a unique set of challenging or unusual circumstances enriched your world view and give you skills to become a better lawyer which isn't visible on your resum…

Do law schools ever reduce weight of LSAT scores for non native english speakers? My impression was that they did

thanks for the tips! your totally right, I actually misunderstood the labels here, but I meant for this to be a topic for a personal statement, I didnt really understand the difference between personal and diversity statements. Its encouraging to …

I think either postponing or writing with a cancel are both good options. It depends what you text anxiety is and how much a dry run would help you when you do actually go ahead and write. If your comfortable in test situations then just postpone

Edit: I wrote a response but realized after I didnt properly understand your question. I think for these next few days, you should do full tests unless your confident in your stamina. If you are, feel free to emphasize RC, it's really a question o…

@NotMyName said: But what system can I develop for not being an idiot? You can try circling/underline key terms in the question. That helps reinforce what you're actually supposed to be looking for. Slowing down is helpful too. …

I never took an actual LSAT under test conditions, but I'd just chalk up your actual test as a bad test and not worry too much about it. I know for me, the LG sections I often run into problems on when I try to force out inferences that are not ther…

@Bamboosprout said: Woah, that's really a big jump. Congrats. You must be a good student. Thanks! I mostly just studied my ass off, 50+ hours per week, probably around 500 hours total. Most of my studying wasnt really done properly tbh, I …

you got this! honestly its definately not worth thinking about how much ground you need to cover, all that matters is that your constantly moving forward. Just focus on the next question, the next tactic or lesson, or the next preptest, and forget…

@lsatgodjk said: @Sam Tyler are you taking the Sept or Nov exam? Either way, great work - I'm waiting to hear about your 175 on game day. Cheers m8 Thanks man, I'm signed up for both and will likely write twice unless I really hit it out of…

Knowing when you need to step back and collect yourself is key. If I could make one suggestion to you or any possible delayors, it might be worth going in and writing with the intention of cancelling. You already paid, o might as well. Schools re…

@lsatgodjk said: Beautiful and congrats. Question for you, what was the breakdown of your sections on your first diag? Thanks a lot man! I believe I was around -8 on RC, and -11 on LR and LG, although a lot of this was due to guessing, I th…
-
Definately could happen! my suggestions would be just to focus on studying a lot, and make sure your studying well. The blind review method and LG mastery method are essential. Spend your time honing in on your weaknesses and fixing them and you …

I dont think international students are fairing worse due to discrimination during the admissions process, in fact, being an international student is likely to help your admissions. Many top schools have a commitment to diversity on campus and will…

id suggest a warm up! if RC stresses you out, just redo a RC section for fun 1hr b4 each preptest. Just make sure you also do this on test day on the way to the venue or while you wait. So you don't induce more anxiety, make sure you just redo a …

You can improve in all the sections, but obviously RC and LR stand out as the most obvious areas. Im currently around 167, with the extra points being made up in LR and RC (about two or three more correct answers per section. I don't consider mysel…

158 three months out is great man! just put in the work and grind lots of tests with good review after and you will def improve. I was at 155 two months ago and moved to 163-168 now. It sounds like you just started preptests so put in some reps a…
-
sorry if any of what I said is generally bad advice, this is just stuff that works me. I'm interested in what in particular I said seemed like bad advice, if your willing to please let me know, it could be an area I could improve.
-
Hey Samantha, are you guys reviewing any preptests this week and accepting new ppl?
-
As for LG same deal pretty much, just make sure you have a solid plan for each type of game, and then spend the time required to really figure out how the game works before you move to the questions. if you can, avoid drawing a new board and just d…

missing 9 is a lot. on LR, what i think you need to do is probably focus on really understanding what you read before you go into the answer choices, and predict what the right answer will be, or predict what the possible right answers could be or …
