@c.janson35 is the man and the king of retakes. Real pro-tips here. In an ideal world we would have an infinite supply of recent PT's. In the real world, we do our best with what we have ... And it pays off. If @"Nilesh S" were around I would ask hi…

It depends on a few things. If it's been many moons since a first take and if you didn't BR it, then methinks it's probably in the +/- scoreband of most fresh takes. For PT's you've taken more recently, more than twice, or super thoroughly BR'ed, th…

@adjusting said: Have the "Old Problem Sets" now been removed from the syllabus? Did I miss an update on this happening? You can switch back to them by navigating to your "Settings" page.

How! Explain Story time!

PT's without BR ... I mean, what are you hoping to get out of them? Just practice and assurance of potential? The assumption underlying neglect of BR may be that one has already learned all that one has to learn. If that were the case, one would 180…

@Pacifico said: I'm going to disagree with the advice given so far since you said you have a 140/160 timed/BR split. Both are big red flags that you need to work on your fundamentals and at the very least your LG skills should be more on point than…

@Pacifico said: I don't really use the analytics for RC and LG since they don't paint as clear a picture of your weaknesses relative to the LR analytics. Agree. @eugene.chong said: Where do you get the drill sets for each question type after y…

@louis2014 said: didn't know that I need that many PTs . Do you suggest joining your BR skype? Should I stop PTing and do more of drilling now? If you've finished the curriculum, it's probably time to move into PT's. You're more than welcome to j…

If you're circling what it turns out you got wrong, great. If you're circling ones you weren't sure about (and thus have more to learn from), great. What matters ultimately is what you do with the Q's you circle.

@"GSU Hopeful" said: I feel as though I have a much better shot by trusting the process until December instead of rushing for October. Trust your gut and trust the process

@"GSU Hopeful" said: In a nutshell, it may be more beneficial to take it in October, but those benefits could possibly be offset by rushing with your studying, taking it before you're ready and then end up having to take it again. If @Pacifico wer…

You mean @"Graeme Blake" ??

@jyang72 said: I've only taken 30 PTs and only stayed in low 160s. Thank you for telling me you took 50. A lot of them are retakes, but fresh PT scores have also increased substantially (about 20 points over diagnostic). Trust the process!

@islander94 said: I have been told that it is preferable to take the October LSAT but am wondering if December would be better in my case. Where are you at in your prep? What curricula have you completed and how many PT's have you done?

@jordan.enright said: focusing on my problem areas (definitely LG and a bit of RC), and then supplementing with something like the Cambridge bundles since I've heard 7Sage's problem sets aren't great (and only easy ones available in Premium). If y…

@louis2014 said: There are so many great stories in this forum but I see that might not be applicable to me. If you've completed the curriculum, then I'd advise that you stop using your energy on drilling and just PT. You've only taken .. 3 PT's? …

@jyang72 said: Does anyone try other outside sources for RC? Just pick up the Cambridge packets if you can and read RC passages! Reading RC is the best reading practice for RC.
