I think this is usually a case of you not fully understanding the question and the logic within it. At least for me, my scores (and as a result, my correct answers) did not properly reflect my understanding of the test. I've been studying for a whil…
Off of that, don't be afraid to retake PTs once you start getting into them. Retaking may seem like a waste of time, but it often reveals new mistakes and answer choices you only barely reasoned through the first time. And definitely go with the adv…
PowerScore teaches you the rule "'I' before 'E' except after 'C.'" 7Sage teaches you why this is, the exceptions, and the roots behind all of it. I'd say you're sitting pretty with a score like that after using just PowerScore, and I'm with @"Cant G…
@"Nicole Hopkins" I don't, and I think I'll just live with it given both yours and @Pacifico's input. So long as the fact that the long hand isn't starting from before zero, I'll be fine.
I tend to check MBT questions just to make sure I didn't just select an AC that was a CBT. That only when I don't have questions I had to speed through and don't feel confident with.
I don't know of any other way, unfortunately. I think the better question to ask is where to find the earliest PTs! I haven't been able to find them on Amazon, nor anywhere else.
If you were to diagram this as a rule in an LG, I wonder if using a double arrow (similar to one used for biconditionals) would be best for this. Since the rule is "or, but not both," neither /A - B, nor A - /B will work here, since both could be in…
With all of the RC tips scattered on the forum in mind, the best thing to recommend is drilling. Consistent and frequent drilling in RC is the best way to increase your score. Be sure to BR every section you drill, as well. Familiarity is key with R…
All of them are! More specifically, the LG sections are probably the most useful, but I've found that RC has been beneficial, as I find older RC to be harder and less concise in their subject matter overall. And old LR sections will simply help you …
On PowerScore - I'm really not trying to bash them per se, as I see a need for the study material they provide. After all, a great number of aspiring students just want to get a decent score and complete the LSAT process (and boy, is it a process) a…
This really only comes with time. In order for you to have at least five minutes left after a section (namely LR), the easier questions have to be super easy for you in that they take maybe thirty seconds to a minute to complete.
It wasn't until I…
I can only speak on PowerScore, since I purchased their newest study guides on LR and RC.
Both were just okay... LR offered some decent tips often through a copy-righted, catchy name. Everything about PowerScore was too mechanical, however, and is…
Even though I'm not in the same situation as yourself, I'm constantly asked about my personal choice to postpone the test. Even worse, I'm frequently urged to "just take it" instead of wait for a score I know I can achieve. Had I taken others' advic…

Looks like JY may have the answer to your last question. His diagramming of the logic is below the two videos.
Your question for 9 is another good one. MSS questions don't require air tight arguments (why MSS questions are hard), so your contention with the correct answer choice nails the possible hole in the argument.
The other answer choices are clearly …
For 19:
Weakening/Strengthening Questions are tough, because they can and often do introduce new concepts in order to weaken/strengthen. This makes pre-phrasing a bit harder, in my opinion, and allowing yourself to choose an answer choice with info…
If you're firm on June, it's important to keep up PTs, though maybe cutting them back to once a week would be beneficial, especially for the sake of saving them for future prep. I would pair LG drilling with a PT or two a week, and since you're typi…
I suppose you could, though I think developing a strategy of skipping individual questions that deserve to be skipped would be more beneficial and conducive to progress. In this way, you are able to detect which questions are easier or harder irresp…
