I'd say the decision is just continue to prep or not... and I think you should. No one ever said they wished they prepped less. If you're ready, take January. If not, push it back. Let your scoring call the timeline.

@VerdantZephyr thanks trying my best not to.

So far I've picked out: Assumes that because something has rarely worked, one should not do it. Takes for granted that one's individual experience is representative of study groups as a whole. Uncritically draws an inference from what has been tru…

@"Collin B" Yes, number wrong for a 170. But flex tests draw from a pool of sections and can have several different forms each with their own curve. So they start with a base prediction, say -7, then add or subtract based on how hard the sections …

A lot of the early games are kind of weird, and not representative IMO. Not that they won't help you but I'd start higher. Maybe I'd start with the ones in the CC, then go back and do the rest of the games from the PTs they were sourced from, then …

Closed. No need to post in this thread. If I open back up, I'll create a new post.

@Help2222 said: The problem with 'D' is that we don't know if it's true. So it's not a most strongly supported from the stimulus. Hope this helps. I don't mean to call you out, but I want to point out that in a MSS this is typically true …

Bug eating plants can thrive in soil too poor in minerals to support non-bug eating plants. The mineral requirements of both types of plants is pretty much the same. Premise set. Ok plants all need the same stuff. So it sounds like the bug eaters…

Science and technology section is good.

I wouldn’t skip it as it is a pretty important foundational concept. You could likely benefit from a different approach/set of materials. Maybe just a short break. What exactly are you stuck on? Maybe one of us can help. If you want I’d be happy t…

Identify the assumption that causes the paradox to be... paradoxical. The reason for the tension between the statements in an RRE stimulus is some naively made assumption. The correct answer will address this assumption. If you have to let the ACs…

Bump... SciAm link is still up but no one who expressed interest ended up sending me an address to forward the Economist copies. These are going into the recycle bin soon... last chance for free issues.

Even if a crime committed by computer is discovered and reported, the odds of being both arrested and convicted greatly favor the criminal. Strengthen except: despite being reported, you probably wont get caught. A. case prep takes longer, and pro…

Khan has a good guided meditation playlist.

I sat with one of my recommenders and helped him upload a letter, and did it again when I got the letter updated. Both times it showed in my LSAC account almost immediately.
-
Good job! Take a well deserved break. I'm sure you killed it!
-
@VerdantZephyr yes definitely come back! Good post and thanks for the emphasis.

Bump for any takers.

There is no PT 90. That would have been June 2020, which was replaced by the Flex. What we got instead was a May 2020 flex form. As it stands now, what will be PT 90 hasn't been administered yet.

@wadduppeeeeeps said: This is probably a silly question, but its safe to say that LSAC just repeats they're older tests? I wouldn’t say that. They are known to reuse undisclosed tests, and every section was given at one time as an experimen…

@nanabillan said: @canihazJD thanks, I watched the Webinar. Do you know what Powerscore refers to In/Out games as? They have their pretty standard 'prediction' but as a 7Sager, I don't know their terminology for in/out games. Not 100% but I …

@"cat.casa" said: sorry, what does PT source range mean? are they repeating questions from previous exams? They are showing what tests were drawn from to make the different forms of each Flex test, and what PTs correspond to the timeframe of…

I believe to consistently perform above 170, skipping is a must. When you move on you get to process that question in the back of your mind, and come back to it with fresh eyes. I often find the answer to be magically obvious on the second round. …
-
Never a complete blind guess... maybe between two answers in 1-2 questions per section, which is almost always a product of time constraints - in BR you can figure out what you were missing. At 170+ you should have at least some idea what's going on…

@cmoren21 said: Can you explain a little bit what the curve means on this exam? Curve is typically referred to as the number of wrong answers that will result in a 170. The graphic has a range for the predicted curve because there were seve…

@jacthom328 said: So... the correct answer choice is E and I'm really trying to understand why that is the case. Is it because E is basically destroying the evidence which in turn would not be able to support the conclusion? If dogs, while lea…

@beng5435 The curve is -9. You can see the conversion chart here. Powerscore has a good discussion about this on their podcast.

After you show them everything, read the disclaimer, etc., and you get to the test, you have to click start to begin. You could probably write everything out then.

I'd say 1 RC passage without questions, a few flaw and MBT questions, and at least the setup/initial inferences of whichever game type you feel least comfortable with. No need to check answers.
