it's also psychologically been verified that cramming the day before does you no favors on test day. Having said that, if you've already been preparing for a long time, it could benefit you to maybe do a few warmups before test day, to reduce some j…

One thing I was just talking with my tutor about is how to better read for comprehension on the screen and something you might want to try is using your pencil to track what you are reading (I tried the cursor, that didn't wo…
when your BR score is consistently going up, that's a really great sign of progress!! it means that your level of understanding is increasing about the test and that probably something else like timing is holding you back. Keep going, and I'm sure t…
the proctoring system online has tended to throw me off my game -- but I'm slowly getting used to the idea that it's a factor out of my control lol. (I'd prefer a test taken at a testing center with non-remote proctors but given the panini we're in.…

Do you read? Exercise? Drink 3 Red Bulls? lemme hear it.
I'm in need of a distraction. PT 88 just went, well... :')
oof the logic game to destroy all scores :') (flowers smh)

@patra5cg Thanks for your comment! I do love working with frames (by which I'm guessing you mean game boards/possibilities?). I find sometimes, though, that I will decide to build frames/split the game board and the…

To be devil's advocate (there always has to be one), I'd say yes. Law school would be more difficult for the person who took longer to score the same as the person who didn't take as long. They might have built the same ski…

Hey I'm trying to foolproof games 1-35 pacifico style. I stumbled upon pt. 16 game 4. This is the hardest game I've ever seen. I thought PT.12 (game 4?) the flask game was hard but this game I can't even attempt the questio…

Are people who have to study significantly more to get a good LSAT score at a comparative disadvantage if they go to a top school? For example Bob studies 1000 hours and scores a 174. July is a genius and studies 10 hours and g…

Just to clarify, when you say you "can complete like 1 to 1.5 games" do you mean that's what you're able to complete in 35 minutes? Regardless, one of the best pieces of LSAT advice that I've gotten in general is that you shoul…
@Nice_home said:
Also, another question, how could it be possible that I scored in the 84th percentile with only a 162? According to my back of the envelope calculation, on average this cycle, a 162 should be closer to the 64th percentile. W…

@"Burt Reynolds" noooo, I didn't mind the second LR haha
lol I hated the second LR section and usually ran out of steam by then (I hate LR the most though lol)
in general, what worked for me on RC is that I challenged myself to do some outside reading -- maybe an article or two from a publication like the Atlantic, or the Economist, or Nautilus/Quanta (for the science passages) -- with the goal of figuring…

Side questions Cuz curious: I read somewhere that circular reasoning answer choices are almost always wrong. I have no dog in this fight and I'lll check to make sure even if it is. I just wonder why they went with this one to…
for me, the critical thing that someone told me was that in order to go fast, you have to be accurate first (i was stuck in the 150s for a while until a few well-placed BR tests allowed me to start breaking into the mid-high 160s within a two month …

Hi everyone!
I was curious if anyone else struggles with this. I constantly miss between 2 and 4 on games, but almost always my misses are from the generally easier questions.
Case in point, I did PT 88's LG section a…

I just missed a 166 pt b/c I had to skip the last 8 LG questions. easy game too. Ive bits of full proof but am about to go to town.
Ahhh lsat irony. The solution for your timing concern of a section, is in itself a timin…

I feel like this test is so stingy with everything. the one thing they are not stingy with, just doesn't help me at all. Laugh at me. Laugh!
Serious question and no shade if you do! Do people used 5 pieces of paper? 4? 3…

I'm also planning on using 7Sage just for the Logic Games curriculum. However, I was wondering if the sections titled "Introduction to Logic" and "Advanced Logic" would be included as part of the LG curriculum. …
I've seen every released game. CD and Dinos would be my picks for two hardest, with CD's definitely being the harder of the two. The CD era... maybe 20s-30s was like the renaissance of logic games. Late 50s and early 60s too... Dinos, stained gl…

Thank you @canihazJD!!
@"Burt Reynolds" @lsat_gunner I haven't done the dinosaur game yet... it sounds like a doozy. Which PT is it?
I think it's in the high 50's PT (57? 58? I think it's one of those). It's hard …

oh my goodness that game threw me for a loop when I first tried it.
