Can you tell me what you purchased first?
The 10 Actuals books from LSAC. And a nice big eraser. Or, just buy multiple copies of the books like that whackadoo @Pacifico (seriously, they're like $25).
Or, go whole hog and buy a b…

At this point in my prep should I be strict with timing?
Yes.
@Pacifico said:
The only caveat is at the beginning, you can time with a stopwatch so you have unlimited time but know how long you're taking.
Yes.

You can also "star" questions you miss on PT's using 7sage analytics ... This is HUGE to me as I can simply select all of my tests and sort by the stars! And then target them with my intellect.

I would recommend against negating each choice from the get go; narrow it down to the couple or few that you think may be winners, and then negate those.
Big time fist bump on this. NA's need not be a major time sink. In fact, if…

Experts. Which experts? Those whose expertise is not shown to be sufficiently broad. Not sufficiently broad to support whose …
I'm not super sure what you're asking. I've always been strict with time (on sections and PT's) because ... well ... that's a large part of the purpose of taking them.
Do a drill (take a section, doesn't matter which). Use a stopwatch app on your …

Get the Cambridge RC packets and drill those first.
Amen to this! Put the money you'd spend on those (super pricey) subscriptions towards some real LSAT meat.

However, If there's one thing you can learn from PT 72 it's how NOT to panic because you don't recognize what you're reading.
There you go. I actually only missed 2 on the last game the first time I took PT72 ... So there IS some sen…
I like to think that "many" does not mean one. And hopefully, "many" is more than 2. Just for the sake of, you know, sanity.
But in all other respects, many = some and logically you should treat it the same way.
Ooh yes, be careful with NA. There is no "trick." Over time you will get better at pre-phrasing the gap. I believe having a firm grip on the gap in addition to the conclusion is the key to these questions.

I'm reverential to The Atlantic, New Yorker, New Republic, etc. (admittedly not the most right-leaning stuff, but to each his own lol)

What do you think about completing 70-72 early and saving 73-75 for the last three weeks?
If you're ready, you're ready. I think a mindful and holistic approach leading up to test day is pretty much a win-win situation. If…

Did PT 58 today and got a 161. Saw my first comparative RC passage, and despite my initial reaction, I got 90% on RC, by far the highest I've ever gotten.
Well, look at you! We look forward to having you on the call[s] this week

I'm saving the 70s tests for the last two weeks.
Don't. You'll likely set yourself up for failure and demoralization. Especially PT72. That's why we're doing the tests in the 70's in BR groups (on Fridays) right now. I would rath…

I guess all the grade inflation rumors I've heard about the "major ivies" is true. ;P
Except for the one famous for deflating grades. Cornell is just emotionally hard. Just a sad place to be.

More questions--->more discussion--->more learning--->more gainz, which I think is pretty irrefutable lawgic.
So what you're saying is that MOAR GAINZ is a necessary condition for true group BR ? I like it.
