They made us use a pen. Yuck.

I'll be taking the Digital LSAT tomorrow at Boston College. I'll check in here tomorrow or Sunday and share whatever details I'm allowed to.

Write out flashcards for the question stems of each question type (one question stem per flashcard) and run through them every night once you're finished with your work. This helped me to be able to quickly and easily identify the flow of the argume…

To improve on RC, I did a bunch of untimed passages and made certain that I had isolated and marked the source for every answer before checking answers/moving onto the next passage. I was -7 reliably but am now -1 to -3 reliably. This practice gave …

Palomino Golden Bears are too fresh.

The most important thing to do while studying for the LSAT is to maintain a high degree of self-awareness. When you make a mistake on a stimulus or a passage, you need to dig into the text and figure out EXACTLY why you answered incorrectly. For exa…

A: All dogs bark. B: All cats scratch. These two things have nothing to do with each other. Are they not compatible? The fact that 'all dogs bark' exerts no logical pressure on the fact that 'all cats scratch.' One is not required for the other, a…

@bswise2 said: @ilikephilosophy (love the username. I was a philosophy major in college ) I think my problem is I tend to overthink questions. I refer back to the passage too much because I second guess myself (to no avail...this hardly …

@westcoastbestcoast said: @ilikephilosophy I used the Bibles when I first started out but I found the material from 7sage and Blueprint to be more instructive and intuitive for me. Fair enough.

If you would tell me which particular in/out games you struggle most with, I may be able to give you some insight.

@westcoastbestcoast said: Hey @ilikephilosophy, I actually used multiple tutors, many of whom scored in 170s, and ond of whom got a perfect score, throughout the course of my studies and also implemented their advice as well. One them went so …

RC is the most enigmatic section of the LSAT, imo. My issue has typically been that I take for granted that I know certain answers, so I don't go back to the passages as often as I should in order to pinpoint the source of the correct answer. I don'…

GPA and LSAT are the primary factors, with what's typically considered a 45/55 or a 50/50 split in importance pertaining to admissions decisions. The LSAT is typically weighed slightly more heavily. What was your GPA, exactly? Anything below a 3.5 a…

I would recommend taking breaks, for sure. I've taken many breaks in my 6 months, and I always came back to my studies more confident and achieving better section scores. The human brain can be fickle and mysterious, but there's no doubt it needs re…

It's not just about drills and PTs. Qualitative work is far more important than anything else you can do in order to prepare yourself for the LSAT. When you were stuck, maybe you should have found a tutor (top-percentile scorer), or maybe not. Some …

I've been studying "full-time" for about 6 months. Cold diagnostic was 146 with my last few PTs 165-167. Shooting for 170+ by June/September, and I've studied for probably an average of 4-5 hours a day at an average of 4-5 days of study per week. Ho…
