  • @yellowavcable I was always told that the timing would come with confidence. You're spending too much time answering questions. See if you can narrow down which question types you're spending a great amount of time on and return to the curriculum an…
  • @"Gary NYC" I see what you're saying but you're tested on the same things as the regular test. Other ppl have had the same concerns. I read some on it from Googling test accommodations.
  • @"Gary NYC" maybe I didn't word my response sufficiently. The point I was trying to make is that it's not uncommon to have a different test. Diff countries have diff tests due to diff time zones allowing for potential cheating. If you have a diff te…
  • @JennLSAT @"Alex Divine" said: If you're still having trouble, check out The LSAT Trainer by Kim which does a good job of explaining flaws with normal language and quite intuitively. Everything @"Alex Divine" mentioned was on point but The …
  • @"Gary NYC" that's interesting. Maybe you will have a different test. I've heard of different countries having different test.
  • @lsatlyfe I have no input here but this is pretty gangsta! I had no clue this was even a thing. I say get those coins though if you can!
  • @adore-no love all the success stories! Congrats!
  • @kimmy_m66 wow, that's awesome! My diagnostic was a 141 or 143, can't remember but I'm now in the high 160s to low 170s. This was many moons ago though so you're doing well for only 2 weeks in!
  • @westcoastbestcoast address the issues you mentioned in your post. I think this gives you the perfect opportunity to breakdown your studies to focus on one or two question types at a time. I would work on a max of two question types, an entire LG se…
  • @Lawyer007 @"Alex Divine" said: Remember, we ultimately have to get good at taking a timed test. This! OMG, don't get caught in this trap! Timing killed me because I was so used to working untimed. You shouldn't do much untimed. BR should n…
  • @nyc2dc2ca how much time are you taking to complete each question and game without time constraints? Have you noticed that it's a particular game type that's slowing you down? What about certain question types, i.e. CBT, MBT, etc.? Are you splitting…
  • @"shahla.s-1" wow, so much detail! Thank you! I was asking my self questions as I was reading and you answered every one. This is the first post I've read regarding the test but I think you've hit on everything I wanted to know. Good stuff!
  • @aishatung sounds like burnout to me. Take a day off and come back and see how you perform. Of course there could've been other factors that helped get that lower score but I'm an advocate of breaking when you're feeling discouraged and spinning you…
    in Burn out? Comment by tanes256 May 2017
  • My experience was the exact opposite of yours. My scores def increased. You're right, it may not work for everyone. You gave it a shot and it didn't work so I don't blame you for ditching it. I think it's worth it for anyone struggling to at least g…
  • @knochin I was referring to my oncologist. Thank you for this info! I've never heard of this. Any idea how much this may cost?
  • @JustDoIt you just started it!
  • @akeegs92 Awesome! Use your BR to determine what you need to brush up on before taking another PT so that you can creep over that 161 next time!
  • @akeegs92 I've been working in law firms since 07 and you really don't need any experience, it just depends on the company. I have a Bachelor's degree and a paralegal certificate but you def don't need it. One of my former co-workers had no degree a…
  • @Mellow_Z I see what you're saying but I was only thinking they would add like two more tests a year, not anywhere near 12. What would they do about accommodations? I hear that it already takes forever and sometimes you don't hear a response until 2…
  • @"Cant Get Right" @"Mo Zubair" @"Alex Divine" oh I love it! I'm not quite sure why or if I should be this excited, but I am! This is good news! I don't know the new 'LSAC Gods" but they get an A+ from me!
  • @jeffsimo28 have you found that you're spending a lot of time on the ones that you got wrong? If so, I would say it's not worth it. Even if you do get those 2-3 right, you still got the ones you didn't attempt wrong because you didn't have enough ti…
  • @Sami oh wow! I didn't think about that. Why don't they just come on already and tell us and quit with the f*ckery?!!
  • @4everchasing idk what I'm gonna do. This stuff seems obvious but my doctor and crew acted like they'd never heard of such when I was trying to get the papers filled out. I don't exactly have test results either. I'll keep all this in mind. I'm goin…
  • @paul1234 you have until the night before to withdraw but you would lose your money. I guess it's not a big deal now anyway because the takes are now unlimited. If your school only takes the highest score you're good.
  • @4everchasing I don't think the letter from my doctor is good. I know the doctor is only required to fill out the forms, but would you recommend me beefing my letter up? I was thinking about adding studies or things of that nature. I expected my doc…
  • @paul1234 this is normal. Don't get discouraged. You just learned the curriculum and now it's time to learn the test. Just as you mentioned, you're gonna have to figure out how to time yourself for each question so that you can finish in time and al…
  • @lsatstudier I wouldn't say I like RC I just think I've finally found a way to get a decent score on the section. The RC portion of the curriculum always seemed incomplete to me because the memory method wasn't working for me. I read the RC portions…
  • @Maximus4 If you don't have access to all the PT, upgrading is probably your best bet.
  • hmm? I don't see an issue with this. Enrollment must be down?? I'm just rambling off something with not much thought but I think if the majority of schools take your highest score vs. your combined score or last score I don't think this will be much…
  • @randolphportugal have you watched the webinars on SA and NA? They helped me tremendously. I think it was just the language that he used. For some reason things like "trigger" and "just enough" stuck out to me and made me fully understand the task f…
