Off of what @runiggyrun has noted, find the areas you're weak in, review the curriculum on those areas, and drill according to the techniques employed in the curriculum. For example, with Strengthening Questions, really try to focus on finding the r…

Yes! Thank you!
-
Occasionally, that is
-
In my experience, some of the newest LSATs have been throwing in tougher questions at the beginning, particularly in LR and to a lesser extent in RC.
-
@"Nicole Hopkins" was actually the cause of this idea, haha. And thanks for the input.
-
Wow that's huge. Thanks for the tip, @MrSamIam
-
Calling ahead is genius! And visiting the center beforehand. I think I'll do both.
-
I'll have to start doing that, @"Cant Get Right". Did you write or type your explanations out? And @allison.gill.sanford I am WAY under-circling for review, which has led me to miss many questions not circled and to end up with a BR score only a few…

I plan on getting a hotel as close to the testing center as possible. I'm also hoping to have my wife "travel" with me, so I'm not thrown off by not being with her as well as having a backup driver should anything happen to my car (yes, I plan to dr…

As @"Nicole Hopkins" mentions, unless your diagnostic is already well above the average, it would be helpful to take more time to study for the test. I for one was told by many (including Kaplan folk) that my score could reasonably see a five-point …
-
This is a tricky question overall, and "B" really contributes the most to this. There are a lot of things wrong with "B" but they are quite subtle. Let's start with employing some techniques that will help diminish the attractiveness of "B" without …
-
Excited to try this out for the first time! Can't wait!
-
Not sure how early you are in your studying, but it takes time to easily gather inferences and weird rules. It comes with time and may seem to happen randomly at a particular moment in time, though you were subtly making significant progress the ent…
-
I think another thing to consider is a degree with multiple majors and/or minors. I graduated with 40+ credits more than necessary with two majors and two minors, but from what I've gathered, law schools almost couldn't care less. As much as I loved…
-
It is. I will really have to check that potter out. Thanks!
-
Haha, nice. I acquired a decent amount over the years. Gaiwans, tea trays, and yixing, of course. And I know I've seen that pot somewhere... Mighty Leaf? As far as Chinese oolongs, tieguanyin is a great start. Different oxidation levels are present…
-
@"Cant Get Right" seems like you should check out Teaviews as well
-
@Mookittyy Nice! You should request to review on Teaviews. Samples are sent free to you, and you choose with samples you would like to try. It's pretty awesome! @"Cant Get Right" My favorite tea period is longing and in particular, a first picking…
-
I've only been away from school for two years, though this is definitely longer than I ever thought it would be. I think the most important thing is to just start the process again. With a high-stress, heavy-hour job, and with having been out of sch…
-
I think the awareness of burnout is extremely important, though it isn't an all-encompassing term, nor is it a term sufficient to explain what you're going through. But what you're experiencing will affect your scores in ways that do NOT reflect you…
-
@"Cant Get Right" I agree entirely, and while my wife can appreciate it, she doesn't love doing it herself, haha. I personally love preparing tea in general. It's a unique blend of both art and science. The history and story behind each variety is a…
-
@runiggyrun You will have to let me know what you think! I honestly don't know why I haven't purchased those in the past. My wife isn't really into the fuss either. @pritisharma I personally would recommend Aiya and Hibiki-an. I can't claim either…
-
@runiggyrun I know ito-en has a ready-to-drink line that includes matcha, though I've never had it. I have had a few of their other drinks, and they're about what one would expect from a canned tea. I've heard matchabar specializes in iced, ready-to…
-
Whoa! Now I wish I would have mentioned Rishi. I even looked them up before posting. Seriously, I wish I could show you my search history. I don't know enough of their matcha line, however, so I didn't feel it wise to do so. Glad to know you like it…
-
To avoid tempting what you just read, I'll stress what cannot be stressed enough - redo and re-redo LG sections until you're nailing them, both on accuracy and time. Not sure how many untouched PTs you have, but they're precious, and if you can't su…
-
@runiggyrun's tip on comparative passages is one I use as well. It definitely helps.
-
I've probably mentioned this too many times by now, but I find it to be applicable here, especially since it's more of a concrete tip - perhaps my only one in RC. Some tougher main point questions may have you in sweats, especially if they're in the…
-
Haha, yes, and that's exactly the dilemma. Maybe you'll find yourself doing better with time, and, as a result, you'll change up your strategy a bit. I imagine it seems far-fetched to have the time to go back and review several questions, but I thin…
-
As far as personal strategies for skipping in general, I firmly stand by sometimes skipping difficult main point questions in RC. I may do a quick skim over the passage before deciding to move on, but I've found it to be very helpful to do the later…
-
@"Cant Get Right" makes a good point, which should definitely be applied to everything in regards to the test. And I should have been clearer - by normally, I really only mean more often than not, since I have been switching back and forth between b…
