Combine your 1 PT/week plus review with drills and review of those drills. Expand on the detail you go into during review. Anticipate when a question is hard for you and skip so you don't miss out on easier points due to lack of time. Once you have …

@thedramallama Just looked at the question and yes D is correct for the reason you gave. It is so subtle. Mayor Tyler said they needed it and Councillor Simon said it's a good thing it wasn't built (both because it would have been underutilized an…

I think the gap between the support and the conclusion (that the number of salespeople passed over for the award has similarly declined) is that there is nothing to say that the number of people who earned and did not earn the award is the same as i…

I think it depends on the difficulty and question type. Mapping everything out on the mechanical stimuli that are heavy with conditional statements doesn't take as long as reading the stimulus repeatedly trying to understand in your mind's eye what …

@Jgonzalez The hole in the argument I thought of first was why would it be bad to follow this advice? What if it costs a ton of money for a large business to tweak the operating systems of their thousands of computers? A is wrong because it doesn…

@Jgonzalez Flaw is that the respondents are not necessarily representative of the population as a whole. Also, pay attention to the first sentence, which is part of the question stem via referential phrasing. The goal was to increase the readershi…

Lots of great advice here already. My additional suggestion is to try and be less focused on your scores. Of course, the point of the test is to score well and get into law school. However, focusing too much on your score on a PT can add extra press…

The diagnostic is meant as a baseline. The test should be completed with a proctor app and then reviewed blind before scoring. The review of the very first test is interesting because you will not be as comfortable with the questions as you would pr…

@Jaytrong So what I meant by the shorthand and brief description of what the argument did was this... A precept is basically a rule or a mandate. The second sentence from the premise states that modern architects have "violated this precept" which …

Applications open up in September for Fall of 2020. Deadlines have passed for Fall 2019 start date. Some schools still accept applications for Fall 2019 but you will still need to take the LSAT (next one is June, then July) and you would be seriousl…

Violating precept means violating the rule that it must be unobtrusive Argument goes like this: If A is both I and FPU, then it must be unobtrusive (2nd to environment). Modern architects (who are all plagued by egoism) have violated rule that i…

What question type(s) did you struggle with the most? All mistakes are learning opportunities, so take advantage of the extra learning material and room for growth by fully reviewing and revisiting lessons from the CC. Review is more than just watch…

@sxe51033 said: So I re-did some math using access lex for Fordham as an example. If I were to get the same offer as last year (big if) it would be roughly $95k. So it would be $120k more for Georgetown. Do you still think it is worth that muc…

Factor in delayed earnings by pushing back the decision 1 extra year. For me that would put GT ahead of other partial scholarship offers. If you get started in biglaw a year earlier you are that far ahead in paying back the loans. Good luck

Admissions is based largely on the numbers (LSAT and GPA) for a few key reasons. Rankings are based in part on the numbers profile of a school's students, so schools will need to admit one student above their median GPA for every student below the m…

The conclusion states that their nesting experience is why they’re successful. The premises that support that conclusion are that they are not as successful the first go around as they are in subsequent tries. Also, the author rules out the alternat…

@kpj744___ @Ohnoeshalpme Instead of deleting the test, I would recommend you enter it and just exclude it from the tests showing in the analytics data. On the Trends tab it is right at the top (Currently showing x out of x completed PrepTests) and…

@Gunningfor121 I agree it is definitely weird. I read flaw questions and look for the weaknesses in arguments. Flaws oftentimes overlap. However, this question doesn't have one of the common argument flaws from the core curriculum. I think the flaw…

His concession is empty because he asks why resources should be devoted despite conceding the points Carla makes that answer the question. It's like, "okay I understand why and how the things you just said are beneficial, but why should we believe t…

@lsatyayy said: Perfect. Thank you Dr. Brown! Lol not a doctor just my initials good luck

@lsatyayy said: Okay just to really finish my understanding, so when there is "no" in front of A, it's the B that will be negated while it is A that will be negated when there is "not' in front of it? no A equals B----> A->/B no…

@Harvey_l said: What about Not all A's are B's, does that translate into A some B? It means that some As are not Bs. In lawgic, A some /B "Some" means at least 1, but could mean all. All implies most, and most implies some. At a minimum, at…
-
Try simplifying the language the way you would during the test. No As are Bs would translate simply into "If A, then not B." Contrapositive is "If B, then not A." 7sage lawgic uses a / for negation.

@AudaciousRed said: Chances are extremely high it would just be me taking it any closer to home. I imagine they would probably want more money to hold a test like that. Anyone have experience with this? I have mentioned on a previous testin…

@AudaciousRed said: Yep! Grabbed a spot in July. Total win-win for the most part. Downside tho.. it's now a 5- 5.5 hour drive to do it this time There were no other locations listed in the state. Not sure about your whereabouts but I think…

@stevencamendola said: So when I first saw the pencil threads here and at TLS my impression was that they were jokes entirely. Not a joke. There are a lot of people who prefer pencils over pens in other note taking endeavors or use them fo…

They send all your scores on record and law schools use the top score for admissions considerations. I’m not familiar with Canadian schools but I imagine Alberta just does it themselves if they truly average scores. Doesn’t make sense why they would…
