Yeah, substitution Q's really suck up a lot of time. Even I tend to skip it if I can't get it within a minute at max.
-
I would continue drilling each of the game types so you can faster at them without sacrificing accuracy. That way, for most sections, you'll be able to get the last questions of each game. Of course, the rule substitution question should really be s…

This is a debatable hot topic these days, but people say the most recent PT's (70+) have gotten "harder" or less predictable than the PT's 52-60's. I would review 70/71/74 like crazy and take either 72/73 before Feb 7th and you can make a call whet…
-
How about the 3 PT's that you scored subpar? Also in that 55-69 range?
-
My honest opinion.....you should seriously consider postponing till June. In my own progress, I made it a priority to improve on LR because that's 50% of your score. I used to get more than -15 wrong per LR section and now down to -2 to -5 per LR se…
-
Were those PT's that you went 158-162 on older PT's (pre-52)? It could also just be a case of nerves. Getting close to the test day might induce some anxiety/timing issues.
-
Yeah, it's not very often when you see a question on a PT that says "omitted from scoring".
-
Are you going -8 per LR section? A -15, -4, -8 is a total of -27, which is about a 74 raw score.
-
Have you done a lot of drilling?
-
I have planned 5 full PT's between tomorrow and Feb 7th. In addition to heavy review, I'll be drilling older RC passages like no other.
-
Yup. I did PT 72 yesterday and some of the toughest LR questions for me were before #12 which was unexpected. The "13 in 13" or "15 in 15" no longer applies.
-
I meant in terms of difficulty haha ^
-
oh yeah! haha. Those super prep A-C's couldve easily been fair game for a June/Oct/Dec test.
-
I think the secrecy of the exam adds to the hesitation. For the most part, the Feb exam will pretty be on par with the other ones. If it was any "harder", then that wouldn't be fair for the feb test takers versus say june/oct/dec. Ditto to what jd…

Congrats everyone! I know what I'm gunning for next month.
-
@royaimani That's because must be true/inference questions tend not to have conclusions thus you not being able to identify the conclusion. But on just about every other question type, identifying the conclusion + premise is KEY. That allows you to …
-
It depends on the game. If I was able to fill in the master gameboard(s), then yes, I'll just refer to it.
-
I assume you are looking to be a real estate lawyer?
-
Generally, if a question is a conditional (If xxx is in slot x, then where could blah blah blah), then I write a mini game board next to that question. You never want to write on your master game board. If you can initially split them, they will be …

I can't comment on working full-time while studying full-time, but I recommend sitting out this cycle. Although you may be able to technically still get in this cycle with a June, you will get very little scholarship $$.
-
Yeah, stick to the regular BR method. If you are just starting out in the LSAT journey, you could do a bit of untimed work just to improve on accuracy, but wouldn't recommend this once you are in the groove of studying.
-
In the case of Main Point, you are always practicing that skill for the majority of LR questions aside from MBT/MSS, explain/reconcile, etc. It's hard to do well on Flaw/assumption/strengthen/weaken/etc without having a firm grasp of the argument co…
-
Just remember that this is a marathon and not a sprint. And def do not burn through the newer PT's (52-74) until you have mastered the basics and have drilled the older PT's. I highly recommend 7Sage. It helped me recently break the 160 barrier an…
-
I think we need a bit more information from the OP. Did he/she take the initial unsecured exam beginning of her prep 5 months ago or when he/she switched over to 7Sage who knows when? I suggest OP take a fully simulated PT (at the very minimum timed…

I'm up 32 points since early July.

Hi. I'll use a resource a lot of TLSers use. Using your gpa/LSAT range, LSN showed this kind of movement. GPA range: 3.45-3.65 LSAT range: 156-158 http://mylsn.info/yjolck/ As you can see, your chances at T50 is a bit rough. Using the same param…

Hi there, don't worry about burning through PT's. Be smart with their use. Quality beats quantity. Just because you quickly go through 40 PT's won't guarantee that you'll suddenly be scoring 170+. Since you work full-time, if you plan early enough, …
-
OP already scored a 171 on the Dec 2014 with a -5 in LG. That particular LG section was known to be particularly more challenging than average. IMO, if he/she continues to stay fresh by drilling all the difficult LG's from the past, OP could certain…
-
Yes and no. You obviously are competent at this test since you are scoring 170+. Some big differences since then. LR: There used to be stimuli that were shared for 2 questions and that would save some time. But LSAC stopped doing that somewhere ar…
-
I highly suggest NOT doing fake LSAT problems from any company. Just reprint all LG's from old PT's and do them over.
