@"joegotbored-1" OMG tell me about it... that weight loss journey is a serious struggle

Checking TLS, reddit, and 7sage after the LSAT has become an unconscious, compulsive habit as checking Facebook was for me pre-LSAT

@Marie4lawschool I'm so glad we're in the same boat. I know that if February was disclosed I would kick myself in the face for all the dumb mistakes I know I inevitably made and obsess about the small things without looking at the big picture that …

Is anyone else excited that we won't know? Like, I'm so happy to not know what the curve is going to be or which section was the experimental. I feel like, if I have to retake it, it would just ruin my confidence when it comes to Round 2 haha
-
I would say there are certain advantages and disadvantages of earlier prep tests that you should keep in mind. The big advantage that I noticed was that the games felt much harder in PTs 1-30 than after, which is super helpful in conquering the curv…

Ah, I'm so jealous you haven't read it! I wish I could re-read it as if it was my first time reading it. You'll have a blast!

I don't read a lot of thrillers and biographies/autobiographies (though I've heard good things about Patti Smith's autobiography). For metafiction, I'd recommend: Anything and everything by Vonnegut (emphasis on Slaughterhouse-Five) Infinite Jest (…
-
OOOOOO then I have so many recommendations! (I'm more of a fiction reader than non-fiction) Fiction (mostly dystopians/magical realism): - Kafka on the Shore (Haruki Murakami -- if you haven't read anything by him) - Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the…

Sending everybody good vibes. Let's kill it tomorrow!!!!

What kind of books are you looking for?

Ahhh I see. So we have two conditions for the conditional. If you have Y AND /Z then you don't have /x. Which is what you said: Y & /Z ---> /X
-
Wait, I'm actually confused lol. I understood this statement to mean two things: 1) no X builds Y (Y --> /X) 2) no X does not build Z ( Z --> X) Y --> /X /X --> /Z ----------- Y --> /Z Is that not right? lol
-
What @harrismegan said. Also, something that I do before I start every game is look at the questions. If 6/7 questions are conditionals, then I know I need to go straight to the questions. If there are like 3/4 rules, I know that that also means tha…

Thanks @jdawg113. I'm realizing how difficult it is to make solid questions off the cuff!

IMO Logical Reasoning Step 1: LSAT Trainer - holistic approach to understanding logical reasoning, and what the section is testing Step 2: Manhattan - to tweak out specific question types I actually went in the opposite order but I've heard from …
-
Guys... LETS DO THISSSSSSS!!!!!!
-
I would check out Manhattan's explanation of NA question types. It's really improved my accuracy on the question types from like 50% to 90%. Personally, trying to use lawgic to attack NA questions proved to be more of a hindrance. What's vital for…
-
I noticed a bit of a drop going from timed sections to practice tests because I didn't allow myself the security blanket of checking my answers after a section. Conquering the mental part of this test is your last step to owning this test so take as…
-
I should add that materials jive with people differently. A lot of people told me that PowerScore and TestMasters were great for logical reasoning, but I really learned nothing. Part of the lsat is just exploring what strategies are out there, takin…
-
What's your accuracy like? It's okay if the timing isn't there yet, but if you're taking 45 minutes to finish questions, your accuracy should be at least 80% or you're missing some key fundamentals. I personally have and always will recommend Manha…
-
Yes, you are correct.
-
I think Manhattan is the BEST foundational text for LR, with the Trainer useful for supplementing any gaps in your understanding.
-
Congratulations!!!
-
@VegMeg55 I think you'll find this thread useful for your question!
-
^^ I completely agreed with the comment above me. Being able to articulate why the wrong answers are wrong and why the right answer is right is essential. Practicing this while reviewing will help improve accuracy and timing.
-
@emli1000 It sounds like you're moving to the answer choices without really understanding the argument. I would highly recommending doing some assumption family question types (particularly strengthen, weaken, and flaw questions). In particular, I'd…
-
It depends on how remembering an old question affects your performance. Echoing what @jdawg113 said, trying to act like you haven't seen it before would better ensure that a score improvement you see is a genuine bump. However, if you come upon a qu…

Wow @Allison M, that's AMAZING! How long (months, hours, days, years, seconds, haha) did you study for? So happy for you!

@jdawg113 Man if only they did take AP classes... That would be amazing!
