@90DFjihoonlee said: This is the right idea. Let me also add that you might want to up the ratio of normal reading to RC reading. There are in my view sharply diminishing returns on studying RC repetitively, in short because the passages are m…

@Older_LS_Applicant85 said: Well, you definitely want to read a lot every day, just so that you familiarize yourself with reading dense and challenging material. In addition, you also have to hone RC skills that are unique to the LSAT (underst…

@Ravinder said: I have a simple solution that eventually helped me to get 177 (though, admittedly it took me a number of attempts). It is a bit counterintuitive but I found that going a little slower in the passage (even spending 30 sec to 1 m…

@aly______ said: I read recently that RC has gotten more difficult over the years. What are your thoughts? For those of you who have completed both old (PT 20-40) and new (PT 80+) RC sections, do you see a noticeable difference in RC passage/…

@"Learned Astronomer" said: @lsat2016 Congratulations on a fantastic performance! I agree with you about really understanding the stimulus. What level of understanding would you strive for before moving on to the answer choices? Would you…

Fwiw, I went -0 in both LR sections on an official lsat administration. I'm a slow reader who had a lot of trouble with timing. I still run out of time on RC. The thing that helped me most to really really understand stim before moving to answer c…

@"J.Y. Ping" @"Jonathan Wang" There was a video a few years ago of @"Jonathan Wang" taking a LR section (with camera focused on the pen-paper version of the booklet. It was Super-amazing to see how quickly he went through some questions (like with…

As someone with a lot of takes considering retake, how many takes did you finally have and scores in them? What were you scores in individual sections of Jul 2019 take? Was it CBT? @SuperMario929 said: I’m incredibly grateful to the 7Sage com…

@jmarmaduke96 said: I also highlighted the little details that are irrelevant to the actual argument. This includes the little things where the author isn't even editorializing (since I would pick up on the editorializations as indications o…

I think this was because these skills together will be enough to allow you to answer all the questions that deal with the low res (I find that in a typical RC section about 19ish questions will be low res focused). After that, there will be anoth…

@Christopherr said: Post updated with new session! We'll be covering an RC art passage! Could you outline the way you approach new RC? How much time, on average, do you take to read the passage and to do its questions, respectively? If you …

@earthraquel said: Hi, I wanted to invite anyone who is taking the Feb/March LSAT to a study group discord! A lot of the people on there are shooting for 170s. We are currently going over PTs in the 70s and 80s and BR-ing those together, but y…

@SuperMario929 said: I had a lot of trouble with the LSAT. In 2015, I took the test once, cancelled after a bubbling error, and got a 166 on my second attempt. With that score, I got into a number of mid-range T14s, but could never have gott…

i did this during my prep a few years ago for every PT. Pointed the pc's webcam on the notebook paper based and recorded the entire PT of 3 hours. then during BR i'd look at the recording to find time taken, and which questions took me long during t…

@henrylxix said: Can’t believe it really happened, I had given up on the LSAT twice in the last 5 years and my last real score was a 167. Absolutely could not have pulled this off without those LG videos. Thanks J.Y.! could you elaborate on …

@danielbrowning208 said: I did all my prep digitally. I think this is extremely important for being comfortable and prepared on test day. However, if you already have mastered the material, as it seems you have, it may not take you too long to…

@murphysarahkatherine what's your score and scores in different sections? whether retaking is worth it or not depends a lot on official score and your goals.

@Dkimvisionmaker11 i took lsat several years ago but am an ESL. worse than your exposure to english as i moved to the US later than you. considering retake. i had a lot of trouble with RC, similar to you. speed was the main issue, not accuracy. was …

The opportunity cost likely would be extremely small for you. how would the opportunity cost be small?

@eRetaker said: I think it depends. Are you below both medians? Also Yale is the one school when the time you apply does not affect your chances according to Yale adcomms and confirmed by powerscore's analysis of lsn profiles. Yes below medi…
