My score is at the mercy of the RC section and I'm constantly shuffling through the five stages of grief waiting lol
-
It kinda depends on the questions you are trying to pre-phrase. You should almost always be able to pre-phrase the Flaw and Necessary Assumption questions. For example, in Flaw questions read the stimulus and think to yourself if it falls under a su…

Personally found my Biology background to be an advantage on the LSAT, particularly the reading comp. section for all the science passages. However, I agree with other posters that if you are going for a dual degree then take the GRE.

Agree with all the other posters here. I don't know who told you to cancel, but this is not an issue. Pretty much NYU and Yale are the only two schools that MIGHT care about all the LSATs you've taken, but even then the highest score trumps all. Sch…

I wouldn't worry too much. I had the same issues when I fool-proofed from PT 1-40. The Logic Games in the 30s are really really tough so getting the same number wrong in the 30s as you did in the teens and 20s actually means you are improving. If yo…

I think Powerscore team did an analysis on the LR question types over the years and found that modern LSATs have significantly less "Must Be True" questions and a lot more "Most Strongly Supported" leading to an increased difficulty. Personally foun…

For the 70s and 80s RC, 2 Star Difficulty rating: 70, 72, 76, 77, 80, and 83; 3 Star Difficulty: 71, 73, 74, 75, 78, 81, and 82; 4 Star Difficulty: 79. Hope that helps!

It took me about 2 months while also studying for RC. I put LR on the back burner during this time which I definitely regret a bit.
-
Yea agree with @LivingThatLSATdream , don't cancel OP. Blind review the exam when you get it back. Schools, except maybe NYU and Yale, only care about the highest score.

Curve is set beforehand just like how the experimental sections we took yesterday set the curve for some future test takers. The LSAC does on occasion adjusts the curve AFTER the test if they found that one question had significantly more low scorer…

LSAC has June 29 as the release date @onecallthatsall

Yeah, wetlands gave me a lot of trouble too and so did power plants. @39845892535

The two real LR sections were both 25 questions each. I had experimental LG and don't recall seeing the months game.

So it looks like you are tying to do PTs from June 4 to July 23, which will be about 2-3 per week if you are doing 14-15 PTs. That sounds like a pretty good pace, so I would say your plan looks good.

I went through some of the video explanations for logical reasoning. The issue with the Khan Academy videos is that they're not really teaching from a test-taking perspective but from a philosophy course perspective, if that makes sense. Also, they …

If anything, this change will devalue high GPA students or reverse splitters even more since there is now going to be an additional pool of high GPA/high GRE or high GPA/high GMAT students. Schools that want to increase their medians will have a gre…
-
Yeah I agree @speedwagon and @"Seeking Perfection" ,OP should definitely try to negotiate the scholarships. Imagine if there are some external factors going on (3 years of law school is a long time) and OP's grades drop. Also consider that to get a …

I agree that ideally you should have time left to check answers at end of section and/or finish each question under a min. However, speed comes from accuracy, not the other way around. I think you can really benefit from drilling untimed question ty…

I have the same experience as Terrynicholasj. I scored 170 in February with average PT of 174 but I almost never have time left at the end of sections. I think it's fine to feel rushed at the end if your accuracy is near perfect. Brute force PT/BR c…

Definitely in/out games with Jugglers, CDs, and dinosaurs being the toughest among them. Only tough sequencing game I can think of is 68 game 4...?

I found passages such as Noguchi (Japanese sculptor) interesting but thought the questions were really annoying. The science passages, in my opinion, have the easiest passage structure and question types so I find them most enjoyable. However, I nev…
