@BruiserWoods said: but @montahar im not "applying" til like - september. Does it expire at some point? A mid September Application you need CAS by July 28, to ensure everything is processed, thats the 6 weeks out mark, but like I said I would get…

@montahar said: Oh ok then just make sure you've signed up at least a couple weeks in advance. You should be Gucci. Not so. Just double checked LORs and Transcripts are apart of CAS, so you need more than a few weeks. Give yourself at a minimum 6 …

@BruiserWoods said: So uhhh, should I be signed up for the CAS on LSAC already? I would advise signing up today. You need to get all of your transcripts in, know your UGPA and have the referral service ready for your recommenders. I think all of t…

@esteerose said: Has anyone taken the LSAT without finishing the course? How did that go? I don't think I'm going to have time to finish, but I would like to. I would recommend changing your test date of you wont finish in time, as you need to kno…

More PTs, making sure you do a complete and total BR (blind review) and writing out why each answer is right/wrong for your challenging questions is the key to improving. Most people dont take the time to do it properly, but the ones that do really …

ok we just finished. Session has ended @"Dillon A. Wright"

@"Micaela_OVO" said: I was thinking of doing 30 minute sections instead (to allow some time for freak-outs during the real thing, lol). @"J.Y. Ping" gave me this suggesting for doing my retakes and suggested aiming for finishing 25 min on the ret…

Yep you are ok! It takes time to learn all of the proper steps, dont worry about time too much yet. You need to just focus on the process and as you learn that, the better and faster you will become!

@mikhail11 said: Please excuse my ignorance but could you explain what you mean by "experimental logic games"? Were there 2 logic games sections? I'm new to this test... There is always a 5th sections on all of the real tests, that is called the "…

Doing a proper review before checking the answer choices is one of the best ways to improve. I too did not do this the way you are suppose to on a consistent level, and since implementing it, have really improved. Its important to be able to recogn…

@kazrah said: I'll be working on PT's and doing my best to shave off 3 min from each section You make a great point here. I think when it comes to retakes its not so much as what else I can learn about problem types (while still important) but str…

Great job guys!

If you are brand new, dont worry about introducing timing yet. Your goal when drilling is to understand the process of completing the question properly and with accuracy. It sounds like you are studying in a text book manner and you'll have a reall…

Are they still offering that? Last thing I got said apply, get in and they will pay for a visit (all costs included)...
-
Agreed, @joecarterruskey said: You've only done 15 practice tests? Do more of those and you'll probably get the score increase you're looking for Do 15-20 more timed tests and be sure to review them properly and you'll hit your score.
-
I'd apply with the 174 and then if waitlisted go for a later test to get off of it.

@BruiserWoods said: -2 LR1 (one of which i had the right answer and erased it and so it was just left blank) I am so sorry heartbreaking... did that put you at 170? UGH! But still 169 is amazing!!!! You should be proud!

Read a lot of RC passages, as many as you can get your hands on, also check out the articles (in full) and other ones in the journal it came from. Go right to where the LSAC gets their materials,

@joecarterruskey said: Do you think it will matter if I do certain tests for a third time? It's been 3 1/2 weeks since I've studied, so it's a decent break in time @"J.Y. Ping" gave me some good advice on these and that is to change the amount of …
-
All of what was said above, but I can not express how important it is to build the skill of knowing when to skip as well. BR is an excellent tool to help sharpen that skill. If you keep missing a certian type or theme of question, you will see that…

Any word on winners?

@"CUNY_2017" said: Are all RC sections good for drilling? @stepharizona - did you drill RC from PT's 1-16? Also, all REAL LSAC LSAT material is good for drilling. Knowing how to approach and old question or type only deepens your knowledge of the …
-
Yep, I am making my way through every LSAT passage ever produced that I can get my hands on, including the ones from the India tests. Mind you the earlier tests dont have a comparative passage, but everything else is the same. The RC bundle was the…

First, what is your target score and diagnostic. If you are after a 165 and had a 158 diagnostic that would yield completely different advice than a 145 diagnostic and a 171 goal, or even a 145 to a 160. Everyone has different goals, so what are y…

@"Chipster Study" said: I get your reasoning. Totally understand why you would want to substitute puppy for deoxyribose. I actually like "Wrackspurt" so my brain doesn't go fuzzy... 10 points for Harry Potter Humor...

I've gotten down to -3ave on fresh tests and 0 on retakes by just relentless drilling (From a -8 ave). Going back and finding the answer by line number, I've also been drilling speed reading techniques for about 12 weeks while I was taking a break f…

@joecarterruskey said: t the end of the day the way to get better with RC is to do more RC passages, and there are plenty of them. Plus, redoing them is how I started to get a handle on the section. I fully agree with this. There are over 250 pass…
