  • @"J. Tharp" Nicole's method worked for her. That doesn't mean it's the absolute only successful RC method and it doesn't mean it'll work for you. You will need practice with Nicole's method because you are not familiar with when to box, circle, etc.…
  • @Euthyphro look at the sufficient and necessary conditions cheatsheet in the curriculum. Is that what you mean by knowing that a sufficient or necessary condition has occurred? I don't think we get exactly what you're needing help with. @quinnxzhang…
  • @SVICTORIA this is exactly what I did! It was the best decision I could've made. Just don't let the fact that you have no set date allow you to be lazy. Not saying this is your issue but at times it is certainly mine. Still. Life happens and you hav…
  • That is correct. SA and NA questions are asking for different things. SA (what would have to happen to trigger the conclusion) is left side of arrow and NA (just enough to guarantee the conclusion) is right side of arrow. AC may have the other to th…
  • I'm not quite sure I understand what you mean. Can you provide a question and tell us what you're stuck on? Are you not finding the premise and conclusion to determine the gap? Conditionals? Have you watched the webinar? The thing that helped me the…
  • @kimht90 i agree with everything you've said. The memory thing did not work for me either but there is no concrete method to this. Once you get rolling you'll see that you're probably going to take a little of this and a little of that from differen…
  • @hadikhan75 after reading the article I must admit the confined area is a concern but I'm going to research this more. Sounds interesting. Thx!
  • Thank you, @grace.kelli. I will take a look at those pills. I do not want to go further with the sleeping pills so hopefully this will help. Do you take them 30-60 mins before bed?
  • @"Alex Divine" i can see that. I'm just shocked that I've been dealing with the insomnia for at least six years but it seems like the anxiety stuff is all new. Sure I've been panicked or anxious before but nothing that seemed usual to me. Maybe I ju…
  • @solkrios thx for sharing. I've never thought about the insomnia being caused by any of that. Interesting! I have kicked around the thought of seeing a professional. You guys have made me see that it's time.
  • @Euthyphro I think JY does teach you how to make inferences. I'm not sure how far you've gotten in the course but the "not both" and "or" rules will help you make tons of inferences. You just have to be practiced enough to notice it. Once you have c…
  • @"Cant Get Right" I've got to give the memory method more effort. I kinda tried in the beginning and it just wasn't working for me. I like Nicole's approach, I had better success with it, but I do see your point about the underlining stuff. When I h…

  • @"Legalize Zombies" thank you for sharing your story! This anxiety stuff is all new to me. I am not so worried about the future. My mindset is that everything will work out once I'm enrolled somewhere and then I'll go from there. My issue is the now…
  • @MrSamIam you are right. I have committed to finding someone by the end of the week. My job has a program that offers assistance and I'll contact my GP as well for a referral. Thx!
  • @CenaBena thank you! I don't think you're crossing any lines at all. I posted hoping someone could give a few suggestions. There may be some dealing with the same but didn't want to discuss so it's all good! I've teetered back and forth with seekin…
  • Thanks @"Cant Get Right". I don't smoke or consume caffeine or alcohol. I used to be a Dr. Pepper fan but I let that go a few years ago. I don't exercise at all though. Everybody keeps saying exercise, but I'm like, blah! I guess I'll give it a shot…
  • Has anyone noticed the argument patterns Nicole mentioned? I think The LSAT Trainer helped me the most. My best on RC is -4 but that can be sporadic. I agree that reading structure is crucial on RC but I'd like to look more into these patterns. The …

  • I watched this at work yesterday. Glad I did because it helped reaffirm some thoughts I had about changing my current study habits. Thx @cmelman95!
  • @"Nicole Hopkins" That's interesting. I haven't watched your RC video in quite some time but did you discuss the argument patterns? I'd like to hear more on this so I'll watch again, if so.

  • Hey @"David Kim"! I couldn't tag you on the post but this is answered in the curriculum. Scroll down a bit in the comments on the first embedded conditional lesson. JY answered this question.
  • @david.busis how gracious of you to try to help everyone during the session!! I'm slapping myself because I'm not sure how I forgot about logging in?? Thank you for your assistance and I'll definitely be tuned in for the next session!
  • I have no suggestions to add. I was just too tickled reading @"Cant Get Right" setup. LOL, too funny! I bet the visual in my head is a bit exaggerated though! @MrSamIam comes in 2nd. This is what I would do if the hinges on my laptop weren't broken …
  • Hello, everybody has provided great tips. The only thing I would add is do not get too far in your studies without timing yourself. I would go with the stopwatch first because in the beginning it didn't make sense to me to time myself when I didn't …
  • 1.Your three-sentence biography. Hello, my name is Tanesha. I currently work as a paralegal in the real estate industry. I've worked in the legal field in various areas for 9 yrs. 2.Your biggest worry about your application. Not having anything i…
  • @TheCubicleEscapee i use these from time to time along with 7sage. No videos but they help if I don't have access to the video here. But you can always just post the question here if all else fails. Just follow the correct format when posting so th…
  • Ok thx guys!
  • @BruiserWoods i totally understand where you're coming from! I can't afford to pay for the test and CAS at the same d@mn time! I am so blessed to have overdraft protection!
  • @emilycyoung1 I don't think anybody will be able to tell you if 3 months will work for you but I think @"Cant Get Right" is spot on. I honestly don't think 3 mos will be enough time if you have to "unwind" your thinking on a few things. It may take …
  • @montahar I noticed that I have access to something called Prep the Rest admissions guide in my settings. It's below the "Current Plan" section. I'm not sure what it is because I don't recall ever hearing about it. Any idea how to access this guide?
  • @emilycyoung1 sign up for the free trial here and see how you like it. If you're having issues with LG those videos are free so definitely take advantage of those. You may also want to take a look at The LSAT Trainer if you haven't already done so. …
