Hi guys! I've been taking practice LSATs at 168 with a BR score of 173. I'm trying to improve timing so I can get to that higher score. I just read something that said people wait to the end of a section to fill in the answer sheet. Whereas I just fill it in after every question I complete. I'd really appreciate your insights about whether waiting to fill it in saves you time or whether it increases error rate in the transfer process? Thanks in advance!

    At first, I was bubbling in every question during LR, and then I switched to the same technique that @mickeycaleb788 described, and I found it far more efficient! Good luck! :smile:

    No problem! Basically, my strategy came down to just filling in answers before I flipped each page. It just so happens that each page flip is one reading passage or one logic game.

    I would also fill in 3 answers at a time before looking back at the test. As in, I would finish the reading passage questions, quickly look at answers 1-3, then fill in those 3 on the bubble sheet quickly before returning to memorize 4-6 and repeat. I never had a problem filling in the wrong bubbles.

    Oh that's a really interesting approach, because it seems like the best of both worlds. More efficient and yet still bubbling in when it's fresh. Great insight, thank you!

    For RC, i would bubble my answers after I finished the passage. 4x

    For LG, I would bubble my answers after I finished each game. 4x

    For LR, I would bubble my answers before I actually turned the page over.
