To add: I've used lined, graph, blank and grid dot. Also was able to use legal pad sized paper.

The back half is typically harder so it stands to reason you'd miss more in that range. Just based off of a range of -9 to -5 I would say stop worrying about where the questions are, and focus on: engaging with each individual question as its own …

I mean sure it could change... you're deleting a whole section. You can feed your scores into the converter, and see what it would be with one or the other LR section or an average of both. Or you can just start taking them as flex tests to begin …

Im scheduled to. Still undecided about pushing it back or not.

Concur with @VerdantZephyr. Drilling by type is great, but trying to sort by type under time isn't a viable strategy IMO. Difficulty should be the key factor in your test sequence, not type.
-
Note that some Qtypes lend themselves to pre-phrasing more than others. For instance, a weaken or RRE answer can come out of nowhere. Focus on understanding the arguments you are presented with... what are your premises, conclusion, assumptions an…

I'd push it back. You already know you're not ready. You'll lose score preview, use one of three takes for the year, and risk either a low score or cancel being recorded. Not that either is an app killer, but waiting until you at least can PT in …

I think passages require varying approaches... some lend themselves to visualization. The one about subduction and earthquakes is a great example of this. Others do not... just the subject matter, or its too dense or too abstract. Sometimes you j…

@lilpingling said: I'll never get questions right under timed conditions if I can't first get them right untimed. Even though @lilpingling is stalking me, this is solid advice. If you can't do it slow, you won't be able to do it fast. Ther…

Gains below 160 can be made very quickly... if it weren't for the "off and on" part, I would suggest a different tutor or system, but it may just be a matter of adequate investment in the material available to you. The test is learnable. Kind of g…

76 wasn't very fun. I also did worse than average on 88.
-
I basically do the same thing as I do for LR: BR first Slow untimed read - ID reasoning structure and ensure full understanding, noting difficulties and traps. For RC especially, note where convoluted language could have been ignored in favor of …

@"Hans Zimmer" said: Thank you both!! and @canihazJD it's about $300 Canadian dollars. That conversion rate hurts lol Ah... did not consider this. Sorry for my ethnocentrism.
-
Realistic? Sure. Expected, no. I think you should expect about a 3 point test day penalty, so ideally you'd be PTing a bit above your target score. The good news is that everything going your way on test day is definitely possible, and games is p…

@lilpingling. I agree about 88. I thought it was a great PT, but I would have lost my shit if I got that as my actual test. If you have the slightest inclination to freak out on LG, that test punished you for it. Also hello fellow non-trad. I'm j…

Unfortunately you just missed the deadline to change dates for free... I think on the site you can only withdraw now. I believe you can still change dates but they'll charge you a fee. I'd just call them.
-
There is an option to simulate flex that removes one section from scoring. I just take that extra section later in the week for practice, which I can then also get a 4 section score from just for kicks. https://i.imgur.com/OmDtd32.png

Hard to give specific advice without more info, but I would consider 5 months still early... especially at just a couple hours a day. The test is learnable, but we all learn differently which is what makes it such a grind. I would suggest concentr…

N=1 I scored lower than average on 79, 78, and 76. 77 gave me a drop from my last high, but not below average. I took a -6 on 76.4 (LR) after averaging -1 for a while. I worked up from PT 36-40 then skipped to the 80s and worked down, so I kind …

Flex score releases have been right on the money as far as scheduled release dates, with the exception of those who did not get their writing done with enough time to process before score release, and that circus with the "lost' scores a few tests b…
-
I found it actually saves me time. Less going back to the passages, and some questions you can answer with only the first passage. YMMV.
-
Yes, they've stated it is allowed as it is a browser function. Dave Killoran confirmed this with LSAC leading to the second or third flex test IIRC.
-
LR is a bit more nuanced. I don't know if I'd call it harder, but you definitely need to be a bit more nimble. It has one of the harder games sections... don't want to give too much away. I felt RC was middle of the road.
-
88 definitely.

A gas tax of one cent per gallon would raise one billion dollars per year at current consumption rates. Since a tax of fifty cents per gallon would therefore raise fifty billion dollars per year, it seems a perfect way to deal with the federal bu…

Ok had a few people interested but no one's gotten back to me with an address or anything. Bumping this for any takers.

I think you got the difference between the two, but (slightly tangential) I don't know that "violent and bites" necessarily counters your argument 1. You could have a dog that gives you unconditional love and cuddles in bed that also is violent and…
