no definitely not. no reason to take so early in the cycle if you want a big improvement...that's moving from 165 to 175 over an 11 percentile jump
-
if you are struggling with a month left, reschedule
-
I think the key statement is "I have changed my strategy 3 times over the past 3 months." if you only try something for a month, very low probability of working, so each time you switch it is just another thing that won't work.
-
get better at process of elimination. you rarely have to do anything more than that to break 170
-
random variation around the mean + scaled scores on unofficial tests not necessarily realistic
-
tests tend to cluster in style in groups of around 5. so if you take 10 tests in chronological order then you generally improve over the first 5, then your scores can dip over the next few before coming back up. I would suggest taking the tests in r…

you should post a list of every question type you got wrong with a count in the chat. also clarify what you mean by your answers being "objectively right"
-
are there any patterns to the question you are getting wrong? are there common question types for the argument and or reading questions? are there common wrong answer types you are picking for either question? what do you mean by "objectively correc…
-
There are always indicators. Would focus more on understanding the argument so the indicators become clear.
-
what's with the assumption that every relationship is narcissistic
-
That's not really much of a difference-3 or 4 questions is not much of a range. I would worry a lot more about why that high score is a 167-seems like there a couple of question types you don't know how to answer. If you focus on learning that, then…
-
also confused why you would need "near perfect grades" to get into law school. plenty of law schools have a median gpa of 3.5 and below, and plenty of kids with high lsat scores go to the best schools in the country with that gpa.
-
read outside the test.
-
push the date. take it in September. then you'll have 3 months where you can focus on the lsat.
-
yeah, chain the argument. don't take in a month its very early in the cycle and conditional reasoning is the most basic part of lr
-
I'm confused about this question, so if you can post more detail so people can help you effectively that would be great. you mention "passages" so I assume that this question is about reading comp, but I'm nots sure as Weaken/Strengthen/Evaluate que…

The Sidley Podcast is a great law podcast
-
there's no rule about which is best in general. different times can be helpful for improving different parts of the test
-
figure out the question types. figure out what confused you each time, and if there are patterns with the question types or patterns in what you find difficult about the questions. "curve-breakers" tend to be different for everyone
-
I think a key mistake people make when studying reading comp is just focusing on the test format. The section is a test of reading skills and its reading outside the test where you build those skills. I also think that you should start learning the …
-
it depends. sometimes its good to go slow and sometimes its good to go fast. its better to mix things up
-
its early in the cycle so there's no need to take
-
start reading a lot before studying specific lsat content. it's essentially a reading test just one section has long reading passages and the other has short passages.
-
no they do not overlap in that way. pointing out a flaw in an argument does not weaken the argument as it as the flaw is already in the argument, so there cannot be any additional weakening from something that is already there. to weaken the argumen…
-
don't believe those tests are experimental sections. tests after 99 are not actual prep tests they are tests 7sage made by combining sections from old prep tests to fit into the new non logic games format.
-
Argument: 1) assumption 2) weaken 3) strengthen 4) resolve 5) argument part identification 5) flaw 6)parallel 7) parallel flaw 8) resolve 9) agree/disagree 10) principle supports/find a principle 11) set Reading: 1) main point 2) meaning of somethin…
-
not sure what you mean "needs to prepare for June" but going from that to performing well on the lsat in 3 months is a pretty tough challenge. lsat prep is kind of a dual thing where you want to build the fundamental skills outside the test basicall…

necessary: need for x to happen, sufficient : makes x happen
-
absolutely absolutely would not advise on taking 3 official tests in a year. they cap the amount of takes you have.
-
absolutely not. it doesn't make sense to take any more practice tests without knowing how to do one of the question types. the key with analogy/parallel questions is to chain the argument [e.g. if it is something like "clouds lead to rain" "rain lea…
