  • @lawhopeful_13 said: Hi, I have been doing untimed reading comprehension drill. I am still getting -12 wrong on the section. Any tips on improving and how to drill properly for reading comprehension? There are a lot of things you might…
  • @Kateryna said: @"Cant Get Right" let me get it straight... so i should generally set my threshold a bit lower for all questions. instead of digging and questioning every question, like the easy ones, i should instead pick the one i feel rough…
  • @hheck87 said: I am on track to take the June LSAT, but with less than two months to go, I am starting to feel the anxiety creep in. Where my anxiety stems from is how inconsistent I feel like I can be with my prep tests. Although my raw sco…
  • @simplereally how many questions are you circling for BR per LR section? You might be circling too many, which takes away time from focusing on and figuring out the harder questions or too few, in which case your incorrect answers are due to overcon…
  • This might not even apply to you, but you might be getting tripped up by trap answer choices that attack a premise but not the actual argument. Remember, there is only one answer choice that even attempts to attack that space or gap between the prem…
  • @"marcus.holtzman" said: Hi all, I am having issues with my speed while going through Reading Comprehension with roughly 5 mins remaining typically going into the last passage. Does anyone have any tips or tricks that could be of use? T…
  • In terms of just general advice, you have to skip questions. If I'm just not getting a question after a minute, I'll just choose one of the two answer choices I'm likely down to and move on. Sometimes, I'll circle a question if I choose answer "A" a…
  • @lsatplaylist said: This is awesome. Thanks for answering my question. What did your study routine look like before this point? It's nothing special. I read the LSAT trainer several years ago and payed real close attention during the CC of 7…

  • @lsatplaylist said: Nice work! What do you think helped you get to this level? Just putting in the time, recognizing where I could get the most marginal benefit from improvement and most importantly hard work. I guess, it starts with the bl…

  • Also, I'm really considering taking a vacation to California next month. I would still hopefully take a test or two while out there, but you've got to do stuff to clear your head once in awhile. I think of it like working out. You have to do the wor…
  • Personally, I try to go the park and shoot a basketball a few times a week for a couple of hours. Just like the LSAT, i'm constantly trying to improve my shot on the court. I go out and shoot at least a hundred free throws and jump shots by myself w…
  • @btownsquee said: @s_jricke good point! I didn't think about the difference between under-confidence and actually not understanding the material. I hope to get to your level someday (soon)! I remember watching a video of JY doing commentary …
  • @Broccoli180 said: For BR process, can I change answers to all of the questions or only the ones that I circled? It is really best to work on just the ones you circled because it's the best way to tell if you are over or under confident. You…

  • I first started my lsat studies probably about five years ago, but I would always get busy with school and had to set it aside, except for when I took summer classes too. I graduated Dec. '16 though and I've been doing prep tests ever since with a c…

  • My diagnostic was like 150 about two or three years ago. I just started taking prep tests about a month ago and through seven tests I'm averaging 168.4 with two 172s in there. I still feel like I've got a long way to go, but I'm pretty sure the diag…
