So... 7sage is Voldemort and we are the Death Eaters? But, Pottermore told me I'm a Gryffindor.... AHHHHHHHHHH #existentialistcrisismodeengaged

@jamesjentucker I'm not trying to be cheeky in ANY WAY but what does the "U" in "S.U" stand for?

See jdawg, I know that but the rational side of my brain isn't telling my emotional side of the brain to act sanely.

Compulsive refreshing of the email... has started

@ddakjiking I thought the exact same thing

Hi @rossholley! First, congrats on the high score! I think you can knock a few points from your RC by reviewing RC more and taking practice tests. Remember that RC is just a longer LR stimulus so a lot of the skills you've clearly perfected (or clos…

I have a feeling it will be Friday too. That also seems to be the consensus on TLS.
-
At the end of every practice test, there are 4 sources (sometimes 5 now because we have comparative passages) always listed. Those are where the articles were pulled from for RC.

I think we have two different terms for burn out and lack of commitment. For me, if I were to write a dictionary, under the term burnout, I'd have both: a) overworking yourself b) physical discomfort associated with lack of commitment I think for …

Hi @royaimani! I just wanted to pipe in on behalf of why @"Nilesh S" might have offered the advice of reconsidering law school. I don't think the comment was in any way targeted towards you and intended to demean your passion and interest in law. …
-
In the same way that there are similarities between answer choices in LR, I would say that's definitely true in RC. You can eliminate and anticipate answer choices based on the question given to you. Think about RC as one long LR passage and apply t…

It definitely depends whether or not you think you'll have an energy problem. My adrenaline levels went through the roof during the exam (which I knew) and so I didn't feel any form of mental exhaustion until I got back home. I know high scorers who…

@royaimani I actually don't know if the latter point is true. I know that LSAC was recently involved in a law suit because students who took the LSAT under disability conditions, received an asterisk on their record, indicating that a student had a …
-
Remember, the reason you're going to get varied answers to this question is because people learn the material differently. Some people can take the Blueprint course for 3 months, only use Blueprint material, and get a 170+. I was not one of those pe…

If you're nervous up until the test, that's plenty normal. If you're nervous during the test, you have to push through that (through simulated conditions). I think the greatest service I did myself when studying was training my brain to treat the te…

@ddakjiking I didn't think so either, which is why I have some dreams where I see a high score in my inbox, or other times where I have some dreams that I was a totally overconfident a$$ and see a score that reflects that. I also had dreams about …

Graeme Blake, creator of LSAT hacks and moderator of r/lsat, wrote a guide on how to get faster at the LSAT. The bottom line is that there is a relationship between timing and knowledge of the material. The better you are at LR/LG/RC, the faster you…
-
I'd suggest a couple of things: 1) Evaluate and see if you're missing certain question types and review those 2) For those questions you are getting wrong (and the ones you get right as well to reinforce good habits), write down: - the argument core…

STEP 1: ID the conclusion navigation is animal's ability to move from unfamiliar to familiar territory STEP 2: Evidence (why do the naturalists believe this?) Because a polar bear returned home after being placed 500 km away STEP 3: Place argume…

^^ This is a really excellent point.

Knowing your BR score is pretty essential to figuring out your next course of action. If your BR isn't in the 170s, that suggests you need to revisit the fundamentals by drilling specific sections or visiting material over again. This is especially …

Hey Kristen! A lot of people will tell you that the LSAT should be a super high priority that is worth forgoing your personal life for (at least in the interrim). If you can make the LSAT as equal of a priority as work and studying, I think that's t…
-
Yes Yes Yes absolutely! I feel like the LSAT is 20% theory, 50% practice, and 30% BR (I totally made up those numbers). Basically, getting exposed to the theory is just the beginning. Personally, I spent way too much time trying to learn everything …

LSDAS does not count graduate work. Your LSDAS GPA takes into account ANY college course you took that contributes towards your undergraduate degree. This can include any community college classes you took in high school, CC classes you took in orde…

I completely agree with emli1000. If you're messing up at the answer choices, chances are you need a stronger grasp of the support that underlies the connection between the premise and the conclusion. I would say that before moving on to the answer …

There should be a post-LSAT weight loss program haha.
-
I'd be really curious to see how you're doing in strengthening questions. When you miss weakening questions, is it because you don't understand the argument? Or do you get messed up at the answer choices?
-
This is a great question and something that initially troubled me when I was studying. Most people will tell you, myself included, that you should only use lawgic when your argument requires you to know the lawgic very well. This is mostly true for:…
-
Great idea! I agree that it should be a clean copy. Also, I would have a stop watch running to see how long it takes to get through the questions untimed and see how long the first 10-15 questions take, and how long the latter half of a section take…
