My plan is to take every single PT(1-75) under timed conditions, BR every single questions on every single PT, designating notebooks to BR, meaning write out an explanation for every correct, and incorrect answer. With this, however, I will not be doing timed sections, rather my timed sections will be PT's. After every 5 PT's I was planning to create my own PT with the questions I got wrong from all 5 PT's, as well as games I did not score a -0 on. Do you guys think this is a good idea for studying, and perfecting my abilities to dominate this test? I know this sounds like a bit much, and the burn out is prob real, but I feel like to truly get a 180 you need to transfer all of your energy into this test, and this is what I am planning to do. I should mention my LSAT administration is in December.

The second thing I wanted to ask about is the SuperPrep by LSAC. Is it worth purchasing?

    I looked it up the other day. There are about 170,000 LSAT scores reported each year on average and about 50 or so 180s. You may need something other than hardwork, but it will never happen if you don't start there. Go for it!!

    Well you know what they say! Shoot for the moon; if you miss it'll be a long and hard fall down. Or something like that...

    Good luck!

    @insidesurgery489 no hype bud just a positive mindset, read a lot of psychology, and some autobiographies of successful individuals, the emphasis on mindset, and belief in one's ability is tremendous. I went to my local state university, but I was not an academic in my earlier life, I was a partier.

    Good luck man (or woman). Just make sure you update us at the end of November with your last 5 PT average so we can see if you lived up to your own hype. You'll understand soon enough

    Not to sound cocky, or overconfident, but I believe in myself, and my ability to learn and understand, I just have to practice hard, and study hard which I am doing, and will continue to do. I don't understand what "herculean effort" means, but if it means studying smart, and hard, then I agree. I am a huge believer in "you reap what you sow." A 180 is only out of an individual's reach if they perceive it to be.

    A 180 can happen too but it will take a Herculean effort... Absolute mastery of every concept and a little luck... A dinosaur game or !Kung woman passage can easily screw that up.

    @insidesurgery489 Learning doesn't happen overnight. There is no magical button. There is no "Eureka" moment.

    This is really valuable insight. As is this...

    @insidesurgery489 everyone experiences a plateau. Everyone

    Everyone struggles at different stages (trying to reach 160s, 170s, high 170s, whatever) but the plateau phase is par for the course.

    Mastering the test is hard. Only 7% of test takers score over 165. I was stuck at 159/160 for three months... A 165 means you basically miss 20 questions. I typically get -3 lg, -9lr, and -8RC... Three misses in logic games means either careless mistake, bad game board, or ridiculous game. I miss 4 or 5 question per LR section. Most of my misses are level 4 and 5 questions typically toward the end of the section. Reading comp I usually struggle on level 5 passages and comparative passages. I miss nearly all of the level 5 questions and suck at analogies. A 165 is an excellent score. If 50 people are taking the LSAT only 3 or 4 will get a 165 or higher... The LSAT is a deceptive test. After you miss questions and review you think you'll just do better next time. That's not how it works. Learning doesn't happen overnight. There is no magical button. There is no "Eureka" moment. If you score a 158 on a test and a 161on the next, you did a big thing. You made a significant percentage improvement. Also important to know is that everyone experiences a plateau. Everyone... 148 is a far way away from 165... But it's reachable.

    @gs556950 Your mind will be too weary to really benefit from the BRing and BRing is as, if not more, important than PTing.

    Listen to this man!
