https://classic.7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/2737/logic-games-attack-strategy/p1 You can use one of these spreadsheets to track your progress if you want. I used the search bar and found one linked by @Alex https://drive.google.com/drive/u/3…

You should print out the LG bundle when you’re ready which is LG from PTs 1-35. The foolproof method is explained in great detail in the forums (search for Pacifico’s guide). Basically you just do the game and time yourself, then try to figure out i…

Blind review them, keep a log of them, return to the CC for that question type, and don’t spend more time on them than any other question during a timed section until you start finishing the section and have time to go back and solve. Some questions…

Great post! Do you think you've gained 5 minutes per section mainly due to the mechanics of digital formatting/highlighting/bubbling? Seems like a lot of extra time per section. Were your PT scores before the March test and the digital tester at lea…

@Jariusmcdade Review the whole test until you are pretty comfortable with LR and are good about circling questions you weren't 100% sure about. Once you are good about circling, you need to review only circled LR questions (to gauge when you were …

@ryanshort8883 said: the way I've been learning the past almost 4 years now is to jump in and start solving problems right away. If I'm struggling with something, the answer is almost always to just keep solving as many problems as you can u…

@SilentEagle Practice a lot of RC and you will naturally speed up. Most of the time sink comes on questions where you aren’t able to get the right answer through process of elimination. Time your RC passage read through, but know that some will ta…

@Jane_lsat said: @TheDeterminedC Thank you! @drbrown2 Thanks a lot. I haven't seen the skipping webinar. Where is it? It’s on the 3rd page of the webinars page. Go to recourses, webinars.

@Jane_lsat If you are doing 2 big tests and covering 3 PTs, just spend the rest of the entire week that week doing BR and drills. Do an LG every day and rotate LR/RC every other day, with review. Your BR score is so much more important than your P…

@Jane_lsat said: @"Adam Hawks" @drbrown2 @TheDeterminedC Besides wonderful suggestions about review/BR, any advice on how I should use the rest of two weeks more effectively? How can I prevent the after-shock effect of a particularly bad s…

Awesome looking forward to it!

I used other books to supplement my understanding of RC and LR. I think 7sage is all you need, but I did like LSAT Trainer by Mike Kim and The Loophole by Ellen Cassidy. As far as LG is concerned, I only use 7sage diagramming and I skipped LG in the…

@Jane_lsat said: @drbrown2 Just finished listening the first half of the podcast, good stuff! My BR process was bare minimum compared to Account Playable's. I see what I need to do now. Thanks a lot! Awesome! I feel like I was in a similar p…

@Lemongrab said: @drbrown2 haha... seems like I’ve fallen into another pit hole of mid~high 160s... Keep going! BR harder than ever and be more mindful of timing strategies for the next jump. I'm pretty close to finally jumping up into the 1…

@Jane_lsat Listen to the podcast episode with Accounts Playable. He basically "fool proofed" RC by upping the level of BR scrutiny he gave to each passage. Every single passage he had a template he followed during review. Paragraph summaries, Main…

@foolish90 Blind review everything possible before looking at the answer and explanation. Problem sets you shouldn't necessarily be timing. You want to solve those. You're learning the question types and the strategies for anticipating the correct…

@joehillman9 I just listened to the first 7sage podcast episode again. Accounts Playable was interviewed and he talks about his schedule and the process for his BR. He does not talk about filming himself, but it is pretty much widely agreed upon i…

@Halloalles First 2 sentences are context. Premise is Prevent Harm ----> Peer Review. Conclusion talks about the medical journal publishing peer reviewed research findings to protect the public. So we need an answer choice that bridges between …

@Princess said: Thank you so much! I will definitely try your advise. You mentioned that maybe I should take a 2 or 3 day break to focus on fundamentals. What would that look like? Any suggestions? The break would hopefully allow you to cont…

@2ndTimestheCharm Do timed RC sections and try to keep to a pace that will allow you to finish, but make sure to skip difficult questions. Not worth spending 2 minutes debating the answer to a difficult question when you could use those 2 minutes …

@discipline I don't think underlining just the main idea wastes very much time per paragraph, and the mental mapping you are doing might take 20 seconds but should save you considerable time on the questions. Sounds like a decent minimalist notati…

You can take a diagnostic with or without the trial/course. If you choose the June 07 test as a diagnostic, which almost every test prep course suggests, it is free and can be googled and downloaded. Diagnostic is to see what the test is like before…

@Princess Try taking a step back from these timed sections and focus on your review a bit. You are scoring the test before checking the answers on the last couple, and whenever I do that I am being overly results oriented. Your BR is showing you t…

Good luck with your studies! Work through the CC at a pace that allows you to absorb the information. You should really strive to become fluent with conditional logic and when you read LR stimuli get in the habit of identifying the conclusion and su…

There is conditional language in the stem, but that is not needed to make an inference based on what is stated. "Often sufficient" is also not conditional language we can bank on the same way "is sufficient" would be. The last sentence is really the…

Nice job! I wouldn't worry too much about validating the score. Just keep trying to improve your BR score and your timing and practice practice practice! There will be more plateaus and some setbacks along the way for everyone, but if you focus on B…

Sometimes the science passages are just complex. Obviously someone who studied that particular topic is better equipped to understand, but you just need a basic idea of the concepts to comprehend what the passage is communicating. The structure is f…
