  • I think 7sage is sufficient tbh, but I've heard nothing but great things about the LSAT trainer

  • If you've moved onto the games and want to keep LR fresh and keep your groove on it, just drill LR sections every once in a while so you stay on top of it. It's what you should be doing when you focus heavily on one section too. Like when you move …
  • I think it depends on the person honestly. For me, I usually just warm up with like 5 LR questions just to get my reading flow going so I don't read slow and re-read on the first few things I do. May be diff for you though, I know lots of people do …
  • @nathanieljschwartz said: Thanks for all support fam!! I know everyone is searching for that silver bullet, and many say it doesnt exist, but from personal experience: individual timed sections and drilling specific question types are the c…

  • congrats!
  • @"Mitchell-1" said: My point is just, if you have to manually reset an LSAT watch, I guarantee you can find a cheaper normal watch that acts the same way if you set it to 12:00 to start. And you get the bonus of being able to use it as a norma…
  • Like alex said, it depends on the question. if it's a really tough one, I typically POE. If it's an easy/medium question then I typically scan the ACs and choose on then just scan them again to make sure I didn't miss anything
  • Yeah, I've done like 5 or 6 hours straight through before. I wasn't able to when I first started, but since I've been with this test for 1.5 yrs, fatigue rarely sets in anymore. Typically if I do a 6 section PT I will feel burnt by mid 5th section m…
  • Yeah I know people who zoom through the passage and just know the basic structure of the passage and do well on the questions. I think it is itself a strategy that some people use.
  • @LSATcantwin said: @Victoria14 Don't get down! I've been with this test for a over a YEAR. I started at 150, and it's taken me this long to break into the 170's and I'm still not even doing that consistently enough. You've got the ti…

  • @Victoria14 said: @TheMikey said: I won't let the LSAT break me :') We need to make this into a T-Shirt. YESSS I like snapbacks, so perhaps those too?
  • I am still annoyed that I just recently got the MM watch from a friend and was excited, but LSAC had to just rain on my parade as they tend to do for many upside down face emoji
  • @westcoastbestcoast said: @TheMikey turned off a feature on my Anti-virus extension and now it works! Nice!
  • @"marvin.dike" said: Thats honestly the biggest hole in Power Scores curriculum. Teaching students to read the argument first. You're being forced to over analyze an argument when all the stem is asking is the MP or something simple. You can p…

  • Can be that you need to warm up with LR before doing a PT. Can also be that the PTs you've noticed this pattern on have harder questions for the first LR?
  • try other browsers!
  • that's a pretty large difference. do you feel like you're nervous or under lots of pressure when doing a timed PT? I used to get really nervous when I did a timed PT and once that eventually went away I started to do better.
  • Yeah, I wouldn't think of it as a weaken question. Just go with the AC that describes what the argument is doing wrong, not something that would weaken it.
  • I feel like Q stem first helps you to just know what your 1 job is for that stimulus.
  • I've learned to be more efficient (and ironically faster) at LR by reading the stimulus a TINY BIT slower. I used to zoom through the stim but that didn't help. Try reading slightly slower but still at a fast pace, if that makes sense. This should a…
