https://www.lstreports.com/schools/irvine/jobs Your current score is within expected range of your PT scoring, and honestly for this cycle, Irvine is not underperforming. I'm not saying you shouldn't R&R but I wouldn't bank on a score increase…

What's your current score?

A MC/MP question is an obvious top candidate for this, since if you don't know what the conclusion of the argument is, you have no business in the answer choices anyway. It's just strategy... if I pick out the SA in an argument then see exactly wha…

@"giulia.pines" said: @canihazJD I've wondered about this a lot too. Does that mean you're trying to shore up your time for the last 10 or so questions, assuming they will be hardest, or do you finish the 25-ish questions in 25 minutes and spe…

August is not too late. I applied in September my first cycle and ended up going nowhere. I applied in February my second cycle and barring any waitlist shenanigans, am likely going to Cornell. The quality of your app is far more important than th…

@"Ozzy Sheikh" said: don't cancel: schools will take your highest score if you've only taken the exam 3 times or less. Let's clarify this. Schools "take" every score. They see them all, and you'd better realize that it does affect how your …

Shooting for a pace of about a minute per question average has served me well. So 10 in 10, 15 in 15, etc.

Awesome! Amazing jump. Congrats!

The potential benefits for the amount of work/risk is obviously diminished, but I don't think it'd be crazy... especially after this cycle. Your GPA puts you in a great position, but there were many high-17x applicants that just got killed out there…

I actually didn't think this one was that bad... and its not really a matter of content, rather understanding the mechanics of "harder" weaken questions. How do we know when an AC weaken an argument? It makes the conclusion less likely to follow. …

You guys should definitely take advantage of this! Jonathan is a master of this test and helped me a lot when I was struggling, and the real deal OG 7sage... IIRC the only other person who's ever been an "instructor" here.

For those goals I'd go WUSTL unless you're ok being tied to public service for 10 years. That's a lot of debt for marginal if any benefit. If you were shooting for FC, more selective BL firms, unicorn PI, or academia, then UVA would be more compelli…

or should I finish the core curriculum, then re-watch any question types that I got wrong and try to fix my mindset? This is likely the better approach. I dunno about repeating the process... just don't move on from any lesson until you get th…

@"LOWERCASE EVERYTHING" said: haha nice post. someone should post "how many stacks of papers does it take to perfect lg?" next time. I had to eventually throw away my notes... it was getting ridiculous, and that was just my paper notes, …

Do the core curriculum, and make sure you understand the concepts. You don't necessarily have to do all the problem sets. A month is not a lot of time. That kind of improvement is unlikely, but if you can get through the CC with good understanding o…

There you'd have B most A. In most accidents, speeding is a significant factor.

If you explain it to them the way it happened, they may or may not cancel it for you. If you explain it in some other way, they may be more likely to cancel it for you. I had my first writing cancelled but that was because the site actually locked …

Cool cool cool... I tend to ramble on so glad it was clear.

@kkole444 said: I use a mechanical pencil almost 1 container of lead for me to foolproof logic games and 2 replaceable erasers! @canihazJD is that a whisky glass I see? 10 and 1/8th pencils, but how many glasses of whisky... ahahah and did …

I literally just finished answering this comment! It does have a neutral option, but that doesn't matter for this question, because wrong falls into the set of things that are not right. RL → W Exception (perhaps): when RL would allow harm Publi…

There will definitely be an effect, but I don't think it's that big of a deal. You know it's coming so just train accordingly. There's an argument to be made that catching the experimental section early on could even work to your advantage. Remember…
-
If you feel like you need stamina work or want to change things up every once in a while, do it as a 4 section test (or even add in a 5th section if you want to get a taste of what it was like pre-flex). Otherwise, just use the extra section for dri…

Dang... -10. I always wonder how much the actual psychological effect of harder content is accounted for when they set scaling. Like fine harder content, looser scale... but if you run into mauve velociraptors or used jazz CDs at the end of sectio…

What were the curves? I don't want to listen to it because I've finally made peace with not chasing my PT scores any further, and don't want to get sucked back in. (┛ಠ_ಠ)┛彡┻━┻
-
Without more specifics, I'd just say you at least have enough material to carry you to June. Obviously, hard to say more without your scoring vs goals and a ton of other details. If you've burned 50+ PTs and are at -6 LR, you might consider investi…

Red indicates where you've selected a wrong answer. Green is where you've selected the correct answer. The length of the colored area shows how long you were on the question with either no answer (gray), or the right/wrong answer selected as indica…

@lovegamemakeslifefun I won't steal the opportunity to work on this question, but just saying "out of scope" usually mean's we're stopping short of fully articulating our understanding of the answer. At best, it limits our potential improvement, at …

509s are usually released in December. Schools start releasing medians around August as classes start.
