you don't memorize really, the approaches and patterns just stick
-
so you already have the Cambridge and starter right? for now I would just hold onto starter and upgrade as needed. I'd say start going through the lessons, once you are finished with a particular question type lesson&sets, take out the Cambridg…

nah, did it a few times. I personally don't have much of an issue with stamina (besides RC reading) so I only did it a few times and spent the rest of the day reviewing... I think it is a good way to work on building stamina and getting some PTs in.…

Ive done 2 back to back (4sections each) not terrible tho was def long lol
-
@dictronic110 I more meant untimed drilling by type but still timed PT's lol I mainly redo the PT as untimed after doing it timed as my review... I think going over some books might help a little bit depending on how you are with fundamentals. idk…
-
you seem like you know what you have to do and are doing things right... the biggest issue I see is the uncomfortability with unfamiliar questions which unfortunately isn't the easiest to figure out since there are no untouched problems... I would s…

I think maybe just posting the comment on set page and afterwards posting the link in here letting them know it was posted might be best (a little more work for you though) and then obvi if it is just a random question not in any set or lesson that …
-
I went into it a little in another thread but the avg score is so because of the very high number of people who do not properly understand or prep for the LSAT. depending on what you want and your goals a 150 could be fine but this is a lot of debt …
-
idk I think Kaplan does use actual PT's... but either way, for proctored exams you want to pretend they are the real deal... this is tricky if you are taking in June as it is on a monday and a little bit later but wake up early, do something a littl…

@alexandergreene93 http://mylsn.info/d7vve0/ keep pushing and add on a few points and you can start seeing some pretty decent money at those schools
-
I mean GPA plays a huge roll at that level as well. For someone with a 3.9 GPA the difference between a 173 and 178 is really not too huge, would be similar to the difference in a 173-175 and a bit more money depending on the school, but when splitt…
-
hmm I sense a flaw in your reasoning Rachel ;P but when there are multiple things you are missing in one particular AC or question its hard to say exactly what the problem is. It could be multiple things caused bc of misreading, or just misreading i…
-
unless you are shooting for Yale a lower score shouldn't really make a difference. @alexandergreene93 Yes a 173 is an awesome score but a 175/6 could add a nice amount of $ on top of any admissions decision. You also are leaving out the consideratio…
-
it felt good to me but I generally feel that way but only do well on the first 2 passages and bomb the last 2 :P but gunna be getting Manhattan RC and really drilling it, if I can improve that to where it should be I'll be in a decent position
-
fair enough. Though keep in mind although you have seen them before and often the longer you leave it alone the more that fades from your memory so maybe hold off drilling them for a bit so you can take closer to test day as a full PT? obviously it …
-
@nicole.hopkins I want to say be weary of using those newer tests to drill from... those are the best indication of where you are relative to the test you will take on Test Day and are much better to be taken fresh as a full PT, especially as you ge…
-
lol hi :P yeah working full time is a pain. Ive posted it a few times in various threads but you really just have to utilize the free time you do have. I leave at 8am and get home just before 6pm. I wake up early to work out so I try to get through …
-
The difference between a 173 and 178 isn't as big as you think
-
Yeah I agree with Blah, I feel like people don't "misread" exactly but more read what LSAC is directing you to read. Questions are tricky and worded so purposely. You want to really get them down, be comfortable and recognize what is going on consis…
-
It is possible, Ddak makes a good point in that it does depend on where you are and where you are going for. Similarly I work 40 hrs and leave an hr b4 I start and get home an hr after I leave so time is precious... I started waking up early to wor…
-
that is a looooong time. Depends on where you are now, what your goals are and if you know of any potential scheduling conflicts that could really mess with studying... also how burnout correlates with you
-
Not really. Not for Northwestern. Especially with OP's GPA a 161 wont do it. Even a 168 would be tough to get in/much more than just sticker. http://mylsn.info/ej6090/ http://mylsn.info/sar7yl/
-
I mean his top schools seem to be out of reach with a 161, to just apply now is giving in and accepting a score that isn't his potential. Unless you take multiple PT's in very close to test-like conditions and are scoring 161 or lower I dont see a r…
-
"and this is a risky strategy" I would deff suggest taking time off and taking another year off and see what you can do before even thinking of the transfer route
-
if you dont plan on matriculating it might be a waste of money so send out apps... but you do you... and Oct is very far away so feel free to take a nice relaxing break for a little
-
As Nilesh said, most def... in fact I wouldnt even attend if they didn't (couldnt imagine they wont though)
-
doesnt have to be the absolute same everytime nor loud/quiet, just a nice balance mixed in. If you get too used to noise and its real quiet on test day the smallest thing could throw you off big time. FT work does make it hard, I would PT saturdays …
-
Sorry to hear that man, that is no doubt rough. I wouldnt say completely throw it out... I mean you were able to prep much higher than that and sounds like you could have achieved it with better testing conditions this past take. Unfortunately you c…
-
@christopherblair hmm definitely some interesting and great points there. Curious as to your thoughts on where/how that should be indicated? :P
-
I think this time I am going to just bubble in the correct answers instead of mixing it up :P gunna go through manhattan LR (started but hadnt gone far) and go over some more lessons and DRILL DRILL DRILL a lot more than I had
