Hi @nader.parham - you're on the right track. The fact that you saw the games once 4 months ago doesn't mean anything - games are very different from other parts of the LSAT, and a single exposure a long time ago is not enough to substantially lowe…

@Saldamando150 said: So I work 50+ hours a week as a construction manager in small town New Mexico and study about 2-3 hours a day since I work 10-11 hours a day. Weekends are crucial and try to do a lot then. My schedule is pretty much work-lift-e…

I think it's actually faster to read for structure than to read to absolutely understand the material covered. You should be able to extract 3-4 key points from the passage and have a rough idea of where to find the details after a 3-3:30 minute rea…

@stepharizona said: No.... "Amazon Prime NOW" not Amazon Prime... Prime Now is an app/service where you order to get everything in an hour for a fee or free in 2 hours. Not same day shipping... (and wow you must be close to a DC to get things in 2 …

@Omed_OvO I've been meaning to ask one of you guys forever - what is this OvO that I see added to a lot of names?

There's a nice webinar on just this topic https://classic.7sage.com/webinar/when-to-actually-diagram-in-lr I personally don't diagram very often and the questions I do diagram tend to be parallel reasoning and MBT/MBF questions with an occasional …

@"Purple Paris" you got it. Genius is a subset of smart, but smart isn't a subset of genius, therefore you can't conclude anything about Vesper and Derek. I like how you go about it, moving words around and seeing what happens - that's the differe…

I'm pretty sure "most don't" is a key characteristic distinguishing "few do" vs "some do" as JY explains in this lesson: https://classic.7sage.com/lesson/few-statements-meaning-and-translation. I believe he also emphasizes that the questions will m…

@stepharizona said: For me personally I find charts to be useful where they may not seem to be the obvious choice. The amusement park/garden comes to mind. I think the use of charts or grids can be beneficial depending on how you think and picture …

@stepharizona said: Do you have amazon prime now yet? It has absolutely ruined me... Amazon delivered... in less than 2 hours... Oh, I've had Prime for many, many years before the LSAT (from the chips and toilet paper days :-) Otherwis…

I think the vast majority of people bubble in their most educated guess before moving on. That's because more often than not you run out of time before you get to go back to all skipped questions, and there's no penalty for guessing. It also lessen…

First things first: I can't say much about the subzones game because I haven't done PT 67 yet; maybe someone else is able to comment on that specific game. I did encounter an earlier game where you could have more than one element of each type in t…

I'm of the generation that orders their chips and toilet paper from Amazon, so I don't know why you'd want to go with anybody else ;-). But if you don't share my enthusiasm, in addition to Amazon and local bookstores, LSAC also sells the booklets, …

@quinnxzhang I need to stop posting at the same time as you - your explanation was great

The only claim in the stimulus is that legal responsibility depends sometimes on factors other than intention, and it is different from moral responsibility (which depends solely on intent). It's easy to assume that this means that legal responsibi…

@"Cant Get Right" said: I finished it about a week ago and took one PT just to see where I was at, and I hit my target score. And I feel like I've really only just taken the first step. Looks like it might be time for a new target score! Congratul…

There are two key good things sugared beverage can do to help dehydration: They taste good, so athletes are more likely to drink them to avoid dehydration (preventative) Small amounts of sugar enhance the body's absorption of water (no timing given;…

Hi @linda_matias91, I think your three indicators while not necessarily wrong overcomplicate things a bit, but maybe you are only starting with games and you are looking for "key phrases" to recognize, rather than key concepts. The key concepts that…

I'm afraid the answers would be no and no. Unlike a hiring manager, the adcom won't be contacting your references to inquire about your qualities as a potential student. They will rely on the recommendations provided. And there's no need to waste…

No, A causes B doesn't mean every instance of A causes B. Kids playing with matches cause fires, but not every child playing with matches will set the house on fire. However, the LSAT won't test on the distinction between "A can cause B" and "A cau…

@allison.gill.sanford thank you so much for your advice. You're right about the hay being in the barn by then, and deep down I know it, but it's good to hear it from someone else. It's mostly that "sharpness" that I'm worried about losing, but you'…

I think if this would be your first take and you're already scoring above your target under strict conditions you should be OK to take June. September will still be there if you need it. Focus on Foolproofing the games to get those scores more consi…

@Zenskeptical congrats on your 176! That's an amazing 9 point improvement in two months and especially difficult to achieve at those levels. I'm hoping @Chris127 and the others in the thread interested in making that last leap already know not to…

A key benefit of the upgrade is that you get access to the video explanations for the newest tests (73-77), in addition to access to more difficult problem sets. The price/benefit equation is different for everyone, but it's definitely nice to have…

Sounds like a plan. Plenty of time till September - go crush it!

Yes, "approving" in this case means he thinks it makes sense to use it the way lawyers have been doing (that interpretation of "approving" is further substantiated by the qualification "on the grounds that it's success is experimentally supported et…

You could start by doing a few of the old PTs as full length practice, understanding that the scores might be inflated due to familiarity with the material. That would combine the benefits of drills with getting used to sitting through a full lengt…

@dcdcdcdcdc just what the LSAT was missing. Two 13hr long LR sessions ;-p

I believe there's no way the LSAT writers would have C as the wrong answer on the basis of the Action vs inaction conundrum. LSAT writers don't like to have answers hinging on things that are open for debate, and this clearly is. BTW, I'm in the cam…
