@alyhobbs said: So I have been off the discussion forum for the most part while I was going through the CC but now I am ready to jump in and get some advice. I have been very embarrassed of my PT scores but I’ve realized I cannot improve if I …

@CRLSUUUU said: Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone has tips for LG on finding the floaters when you're just hit with a bunch of game pieces, usually like 8+ and then a bunch of rules that may or may not have mentioned these pieces. I kno…

I think JY is writing it down for explanation purposes. I wouldn't do it under time, unless it happens to be one of the few questions at the end that you circled and you decide out of all of them, this is the one you can get correct the fastest. If…

Hey, One, is to watch JY's explanations. Make sure that you go beyond just listening and think about carrying lessons to the next similar question you come across.: ) I would also do a concise summary of the argument and try to find similar argum…

Yeah sure. I think a bit of it is experience in realizing how a passage unfolds. For example, If the passage is about a phenomena the RC passage is trying to explain and I am having trouble understanding the phenomena or the different hypothesis t…

@TheBatman said: Hey everyone, I'm taking a step back and redoing the CC. When I first did it, I went through it too fast to internalize what I learned. After abandoning the LSAT for a while, I've decided to come back strong for on…

@"Mia Fairweather" said: I have noticed that one of my biggest issues is the time it takes me to do an initial set up for a game. For example, on a target 9 minute game I will literally spend 4 minutes setting up the game and still realize tha…

@Tonyk215 said: So after finishing through the CC I took my a practice test about a week ago and was very pleased with a score of 171. Since then I took three more practice tests and have seen steady decreases in each PT. 168, 167, and most re…

I know this isn't helpful -I have Headspace, but I am terrible about using it. I do intend to get back into it. So hopefully, you and I could both discover this together.

@"lady macbeth" said: Thank you so much! I will keep your tips in mind during my next RC drill. Do you have any specific sections from specific PT's you recommend? Since this is an RC procedure, it is the same for all passages. As you are …

Nice! Congratulations

@"lady macbeth" said: I know there are so many threads on how to squash RC on here. But I really feel like I'm a rare case of someone who sucks harder than average at RC. Like oh my god. Every PT I take, I go -0-3 on each section. Then RC roll…

@benhancock68 said: I genuinely appreciate your input Sami. In the coming days, I will try to be implement these strategies. Rereading and rereading is a mistake I’m guilty of. Oh yaaay! Have you tried to video record yourself? I found it’s…

@benhancock68 said: I almost always have 7 minutes remaining when I get to the last passage and it causes me to rush through. The timing is problematic because it indicates either you are spending too long on the passage or getting caught up…

oh Yaaaaaay!!!!! Congratulations! Have you applied this cycle?

Congratulations! You deserve it. Good luck on the applications . Keep us updated

@"Do the right way" said: Hi @Sami Hi! I am caught up in a conundrum again . I am not able to stick to the time limits (10 mins) to solve the Reading comp passage. It takes more time for me to figure out Low resolution summary of each p…

@TaylorAnn said: I've been doing some timed sections and am consistently missing about 6 questions. There doesn't seem to be a pattern to the questions I miss. Some just feel harder and even with drilling the question types I miss, BR, and rev…

Congratulations!!! That's so well deserved.

It depends. Do you think you are taking a long time because you don't have a good understanding of stimulus? This is usually evident when you go through answer choices and you find that the understanding from the stimulus was not in fact adequate to…

@ksh9880 You have an amazing GPA. I think you should keep studying and re-take LSAT when you start scoring your goal score. You can have some amazing options available to you.

@tringo335 Congratulations!!!!!! One day you'll be telling your child how you scored a 170. Congratulations on being a mother.

@sunflowersandlaw said: could it be possible that given that they rushed the scores the grading was off or something? There is always room for error but I don't think its likely. If you are not happy, would you consider retaking it in Jun…

@"Do the right way" said: Thank you so much @Sami . Yes , the explanation was very helpful to clear the concept of structure in a RC passage.I will try to follow this as much as i can . Let me know if you have any further questions! : )

@ozymandias1303 said: So, I want to take the July 23rd LSAT which is in roughly 5 months. I would like to get a 170. Received a 155 on the December 2017 LSAT, and am waiting to see what my score on the February 2018 LSAT was. Doing lots o…

Here is an example of a breakdown of one of the RC passages I did awhile back. I wouldn't do the high resolution under time and would focus on low resolution, connect/tie back, and main point of the passage instead. https://classic.7sage.com/lsat_…
