LOL—Googled it, discussing how Harvey is ENTJ ... This quote=LOL: "I think this series is meant to show what happens when two ENTJs run amok." My life=ENTJ running amok.

@Pacifico said: Yeah I think 2 per week for a few months would be great for you. Dig.

@splitterhopeful said: Curious, what do you guys do -- do you go through every question? We stop to discuss whenever it is desired or whenever we don't have full consensus on the answer!

@ENTJ said: Is that mandated by Texas law? If so, that's a good law. We don't like to "mandate" many things here. I believe you're thinking of California or Massachusetts or some other place. We just culturally enforce brisket consumption at non-f…

@ENTJ said: You got me hankering for steak now. Brisket makes up about 30% of my diet. So. I understand.

@Pacifico said: why would you want a spreadsheet of all the questions I got wrong? WELL I was thinking it would be fun to do a brutally hard section but then I remembered that I could easily make a sheet of my OWN misses ... but then again, I ten…

@lpadr009 said: you experienced burn out from doing 3 a week? Hell yeah! Ended up taking 5-7 day mini breaks before finally taking the last 2 weeks of August off. Verdict? Everyone should take breaks if they're working hard. And yes, 3 a week, ev…

@nye8870 said: When I am PTing newer tests I still just set the 35min and go for it. Well, if it's working for practice, why not try it for PT's ?!?!

@"Accounts Playable" said: I am doing 3 a week, but I take 2 days to BR (very deep BR using an unmarked new test) since I have seen many of the questions before. If you can do this, that's great. With the possible burn out warning. And I don't se…

@c.janson35 said: I just don't think the best way to achieve this is by placing a 1:20 time limit on yourself. It's also impossible to do this exactly on the test—thus the recommendation of training yourself to be able to "ballpark" 1:20. And ulti…

Sounds like @nye8870 's story!

@Pacifico said: You could have only Socratic method teachers your entire 1L year and look like a total jackass in class from not being prepared and yet still ace all the exams if you know exactly what they are looking for and prep accordingly. Bo…

@lawlawlovely said: Clearly, I'm doing really great today. Well if it were me, I would expect roses and steak at a BARE minimum.

@Pacifico said: once I reach 25 I make a new LR section to use as a fifth section and let me tell you even though I reviewed all those questions and watched the videos they are still the hardest LR sections I have ever done. Plz 2 share spreadshe…

@jyang72 said: I knew a guy who took PT1 to PT68 3times and he got 180! Crazy!!!

@c.janson35 said: I just found it very weird how it seems everyone else is so easily able to improve their score on the lsat going from 140s and 150s to high 160s, and I have to struggle studying much harder to get a far worse score. Why .... do y…

@"granny_smith" said: go PT 36-75 every other day Burn out warning In my experience, 3 PT's a week is a hard maximum. And a yucky maximum if you sustain it for too long. 2-a-week is the sweet spot in my opinion, with an occasional 3-a-week stre…

@pizzaqueen said: I usually don't get to at least one question at the end of an LR section, and my last RC passage is usually started with only 6 minutes on the clock. The key to better timing on the LSAT for someone in your score range is self-di…

@c.janson35 said: "American LSAT students are stupid. We get beat by China, we get beat my Mexico, Japan. Some of those takers, I assume, are smart. But we need to make the LSAT great again. Turn to section 2, read the directions, and begin working…

I told him I wanted to be a lawyer and he was expressing deep sympathies. Jk ... Just a candid moment

@c.janson35 said: If your goal is a 180, and I have weird feeling that it may be, then you should really not be short changing your BR. Thumbs way up BR is where the deep learning happens, my friend. And if you've got a high goal, you'd better be…

@goalis180 said: Also, is it worth BR'ing RC? Yes! You gotta learn to pick the meat off the bones with questions and to dig deep into reasoning structure of passages, as well as what exactly the questions want you to do vis a vis your reading. K…

@DumbHollywoodActor said: BR them. Shoot for perfection. Make sure you understand why each answer is correct and incorrect. Then watch the videos to devise a strategy of knocking that game out under timed conditions. Then foolproof it so that it be…

@"mornincounselor-1" said: The real silver bullet of RC is doing a lot of passages. this

Do not read the question stems before you read the passage. This is one of those tricks that pop up occasionally—if it were a legit practice then you would hear a lot of stop scorers swearing by it (I do not personally know a single top scorer who d…

@Pacifico said: clean copy BR You gotta TM that man! And then make a thread dedicated to the concept and post links to it whenever it comes up ... Oh, and, good point.
