@7sagelsatstudent180 no hype bud just a positive mindset, read a lot of psychology, and some autobiographies of successful individuals, the emphasis on mindset, and belief in one's ability is tremendous. I went to my local state university, but I wa…
Not to sound cocky, or overconfident, but I believe in myself, and my ability to learn and understand, I just have to practice hard, and study hard which I am doing, and will continue to do. I don't understand what "herculean effort" means, but if i…

I also started at 148 and it took me 4 months to finally be able to consistently score over 164. I have taken 27 preptests and have retaken 65-72... I'll probably have taken and retaken 56-74 prior to October.
What was s…
This is why I like posting these kind of thoughts on here, so much feed back it is amazing. Thank you everyone for the tips I will be sure to keep it in mind as I try to find what the best method of study is for me. I guess it will be best if I fini…
my first ever PT was 148, and I have not taken another since. Also, I think you are right everyone could take a PT a day, but can everyone BR a PT everyday? That is probably a better question.
hmm it seems that you guys think that is a lot for some reason. I was thinking in my head that if all I did was PT and BR, and maybe some drilling, I would be able to do 1 PT a day adding up to about 25-30 PT's a month, give or take if I decide to t…
@7sagelsatstudent180 I am takinv it in December. I know this sounds like a lot, but I quit my job, so starting september, I will be doing nothing but the LSAT.
@c.janson35 I was thinking the same thing about articulating every single one, and how daunting the task would be, but I was reading a psychology book titled "Managing Your Mind," and it is really emphasizing repetition, and practice, for exams and…
I am not in my PTing phase yet so my insight will be limited. Firstly, how are you BRing? some people think that reassuring themselves their answer is right is BRing, and IT IS NOT. For every answer you must be certain of incorrect answers, and for …

I think 7Sage's breakdown of under 35 for drilling and 36+ for PTs is much more sensible because it maximizes the amount of full PT you can take.
This right here. Every time I talk to someone who scored in the 99th percentile, they…
@beyondsudi let me assure you of a few things. First, 2 months is setting yourself up for failure, and that is the truth. Second, I want to let you know that this is the most important test you will be taking in pursuit of a legal career, so don't s…
@Pacifico speaks the truth. OP, my situation is similar. I am 65% done with the course, and want to PT so bad, however I did not get to learn everything, and when I take my 2nd PT, I want it to be indicative of my skill, and I know that not knowing…
@Pacifico I have been told several times that applying close to feb to your reach school lowers chances as well as reduces scholarship amounts. Is such propaganda true?
Not to hijack this thread, but Law schools only accept applicants for a fall cycle? I am taking my LSAT in december, and I want to attend law school in 2016, but I also want to be able to retake if I don't get a good score. When would I have to appl…
@Pacifico I was thinking about that, but that $500+ is out of my range atm. I just quit my job to study full time for the lsat ; ( last day is sept 1st, and I need to save the cash.
Thank you, I decided I was going to purchase it for reasons you both have mentioned. I am, however, going to wait til the day before my last day, and upgrade then so that I may have as much time.
you get 2 months extension. I am willing to make w.e investment lol, you have no idea how much study material I have lol. I have the MP RC, and LR guide, all the prep tests, 1-75, the PS bundle which includes LG, LR, and RC along with the workbooks,…
LMAO @nye8870 Epic comment. As for the rest of the comments, thank you for the help. I agree with all of you in that I must identify the flaw, which is probably what I was not doing, rather @nicole.hopkins I was doing what you were doing, I was try…
Well I figured practice lol, but nothing else that can give me the magical edge lollol. I understand with practice I will get better. I average about 4-6hrs a day studying usually 5 days a week sometimes 6 depending on my job, but if it really is JU…
Only thing that I have personally found useful from MP is their RC, I personally do not like their book due to the fact that they just don't use enough formal logic which I personally feel is so crucial to this test. I found the PS bible on the othe…
