  • Look for the flaw in the argument and describe it. Works the best.

  • Stem for sure. I honestly don't short term retain all that well, and once I know what I need focus on (say main conclusion for example) my brain basically deletes that information. It forces you to go back and reread which is a waste of time. So rea…
  • It's SUPER common! It happens to me relatively often and a good friend of mine consistently. Something about the cogs in your brain greased and ready. Before you next PT, do 15-20 LR questions at random and then start your PT. See if that bumps it!
  • Ok, I figured it out lol. Just needed some more time for the idea to really sink in.
  • Ideally with a merit-based scholarship. I'm comfortable taking loans for COL but i'm fortunate enough that I have a family member willing to help with certain aspects of Law School. In particular, books (which is easily over a $1000 a semester) and…

  • LG all day, every day. The fact I can CONFIDENTLY answer everything and literally prove every single thing is so satisfying. I'm a literature major so you would think RC was my favorite but it's essentially a glorified LR section. I like being able …
  • Hmm, I think an addendum would be your best bet. Particularly if your GPA is lower then it would've been if you factored in the year abroad. Granted, I'm also commenting cause I want to see what others say! Good luck!
  • @tmickjr__ said: That's quite an elaborate system! I usually try to streamline by just marking the choices I am not sure about and attack the question a second time after the initial pass through. Like amedley, I try to knock out BR immediatel…
  • @amedley88 said: When I BR, I pretty much just go over everything again... If it's one I was 100% sure of, I'll remember immediately upon reading the stimulus and not return to it in BR. However, I typically do my BR on the same day or the day…
  • @username said: You have until Aug. 22nd to decide on the September test. Do the CC in order and then take two or three PTs with BR. If your BR score is solidly above your target score and your PT score is a few points above or below your targ…
  • @TheMikey said: I've gone from a 140 something diagnostic to a 170 on my most recent PT, and I'm an idiot, so yes you can def improve. Drill the crap out of your weaknesses and when you PT do BR and target your weaknesses from that PT then dri…
  • Most flights that are more then an hour have wifi these days! I would go ahead and print out some PTs or pack one of the LSAC books full of prep tests just incase though. When you go to board, ask a flight attendant if there will be wifi. Sometimes …
  • @dennisgerrard said: The short answer is YES!! I would definitely say 155s-160s is not a big jump.I will focus on the LR. Try to do an untimed LR section(29-38) and see if the accuracy is increasing. Time pressure is a factor to harm your…
  • @"vanessa fisher" said: @vtm14 Sorry to hear of your frustration. It is a hard test, so don't beat yourself up too much. If you want my honest advice, I think you should consider postponing. Of course, I could be wrong and I'm not say…
  • @"Alex Divine" said: @vtm14 said: Hi everyone, So i've been posting here semi-often these last two weeks as I work through the CC. I'm just over the 30% mark in material and I decided to take a timed LR section today. I to…
  • @10000019 said: So you need to get roughly 20 more questions correct. I have no idea whether you can hit that by September, but I don't think that's an outrageous goal to have depending on where your mistakes currently are. I think for st…
  • @10000019 said: Of course you'll improve by September if you study. The more important question is how much will you improve. What's your target score? If you're aiming for a 170+, you'd probably want to consider postponing. Ideally 165. I'm…
  • @mmowrer said: You're situation sounds very similar to mine. Although I didn't take the official LSAT in June, the couple practice tests I took during that time period all put me at the 154 mark. I'm using both PowerScore and 7Sage to self stu…

  • @TheMikey said: You can for sure improve to a 160+. I've been in your shoes for a long time, so I know how it feels to not do so well and want better. What I did was focus HEAVILY on LR since it is half of the test. You want to be very very ve…
