Diagnostic was a 154. First PT after CC was 161. Ended up at 173. 19 points!!! (7sage rocks)

@kassiejenkins1 If you've been putting in all those hours every week you will see results! I promise that one underperformance isn't indicative of how you'll end up. Try to focus on BR and ensure you are overanalyzing questions you weren't 100% sure…

@ttt2155 said: CONGRATS! What are your tips for LG and panicking when you don't get to those game-changing (puns intended) reductions? You just have to breath and remember to do as much work up front as possible. If you need to skip to the n…

@2021lawschool said: Congratulations!! Do you have any recommendations for improving RC? Thanks in advance. I recommend listening to the 7sage podcast with @"Accounts Playable" where RC BR is discussed in great detail. I began breaking down …

Congrats!!!!

Congrats Jonah!

Congrats!!!!!!!!!

July is undisclosed so op wouldn't be able to use it as a diagnostic, but it is always a good idea to return to the CC. Doing the entire thing over again may be unnecessary unless you still need to internalize what is being asked of you by each ques…

Nope you’re good. Just do games non stop and mix in some LR/RC before the next test and you should be putting yourself in position for a nice score jump.

If you think you can improve you should retake, although a 169 is a great score. Can you take it in October? November scores would be released closer to the new year so your application won’t be considered “early.” A score increase is worth more tha…

Congrats score twin! Perfect your essays and you’ll have plenty of amazing opportunities!

I’m not sure if an addendum would be appropriate since you will be listing the new teaching job on your resume. In the personal section of your resume you could say what your passion is that is the reason for this major job change. Is it passion for…

Love it! Thank you!!!

@MissChanandler I'd be willing to swap!

It won't be the exact same format, but you could just open the game as a PDF. The main difference is that the page will display multiple questions in pdf form, while the digital LSAT will show the setup and single question only. Still, it would be g…

As we get a little closer they should put up some more testing centers. If there are no testing centers within a certain mileage a student can request a center closer to them. I think it’s like 100 miles. My testing center is pretty big and I took a…

@"Accounts Playable" podcast episode from the 7Sage podcast series (early episode) addresses this in detail. His BR routine helped me realize I was not doing enough during BR, but there is also a bit about drilling and reflection. The PTs are going …

Problem sets are nice, but I had a lot of drill work without even really doing that many of the harder sets. Between recycling through 150-200 logic games, individual section practice, and deep blind review I had everything I needed. I did love the …

Practice! You have so much room to improve in some very learnable areas!!! The LG score stood out to me most, because if you do 1 section of LG every day or more using the foolproof method you should be able to make massive scaled score jumps. As yo…

I'm the type of person that feels a little uncomfortable until I get to where I need to be. When I travel I get to the gate first, confirm the flight didn't change gates on me, then I can go find a place to relax or grab a bite to eat while I wait. …

@Lemongrab just keep at it and you will see results. A lot of the time speed comes with being able to predict what you need to answer the question before moving into the answer choices. Practice the question types you know you need to work on and be…

Yes the BR score takes timing out of it and revisiting only the flagged questions helps identify overconfidence errors/misreads. I tend to redo the LG section and just do the games over again with a stopwatch to keep timing notes, so that's fine to …

@hurdlehopper101 said: @drbrown2 Does this go for questions I did not get to because I ran out of time as well? I would just BR those straight away. Circle anything you weren’t sure about or didn’t have enough time for. The ones you don’t BR…

@MissChanandler said: As a side not, don't check your score before you BR! Yep you can't improve without putting in the work. BR is the work. The PT is a snapshot of where you are at. In fact, any individual PT is an incomplete snapshot of w…
-
You will learn a lot about yourself and your weak areas by missing questions you thought you were 100% on. It's a different sort of learning from attempting the question again untimed, knowing you got it wrong. You can still do that, but do it after…

Another thing I’ll add to @"Cant Get Right"’s comment about BR’ing... You didn’t mention your BR scores, which makes it seem like you are paying too much attention to each timed scaled score and not enough attention on your BR score. Dive deep into…
-
When you blind review try writing out explanations for the right and wrong answer choices when you can. Watch the explanations and see how the reasoning is different. You’re going to mislabel argument parts and have an incomplete understanding of a …

Nice! Thanks 7Sage!!!

@"Pride Only Hurts" We're meeting at 4 eastern right? I am not sure Skype is the best option. Might be a 1 hour limit without purchasing more call time. Not too sure

If you want we can do that. I am trying to set up skype too just in case
