the third question really threw me off...picked D and then C during BR because E just did not seem relevant as it mentioned 'WELL BEING'!! Next time, for W questions with analogies, I will focus more on how dissimilar the two compared things are. I think my mistake was that I was trying to sap the support away from P->C instead of focusing on how different the lottery tickets and insurance policies are.
2/5 , 3/5. Thought I got 5 wrong but it was right and changed it. 1 felt too easy that i skipped the right answer on purpose bc it didn't seem like an answer just stating the obvious.
Just bc in most bookstores fiction sales decreased, this doesn't automatically mean the campaign to encourage more people to read fiction has failed. Maybe some other place has an increase in fiction sales and this was the mail order book clubs in Answer A's case.
@RamseyEaton Better to get them all right here when they say don't worry about time, rather understanding. The speed will eventually come with more understanding of why each answer is wrong! Last night, I did an adoptive drill that took me 9 minutes to get right. I was happy I got it right because I felt I had a mild understanding.
@DanK Love that. One thing I'm learning too is everybody's brain handles different questions differently. I recently did a drill set where there was a 5/5 difficulty and a 1/5 difficulty question, and I went minutes over on the 1/5, but was at target time for the 5/5 one. Something about the 5/5 one just immediately clicked in my brain, idk if it was structure, ACs, who knows.
@ambam It is possible you are overthinking them. LSAT tests your ability to think in a new and non-intuitive kind of way. Maybe easier questions are beating you by making you think too much and rely on a your regular way of thinking that is not apt for LSAT. Basically, stick to what the rules and lessons say. If this is not the case I apologize. I am sort of projecting what my biggest weakness was when I began studying. I would overthink the simplest questions and would make me go back to how I normally think about challenging questions which was not reflective of my studies. Continue drilling and reviewing the videos. You will see it eventually!
2/5 originally and then 5/5 on BR. The three I missed because I talked myself out of the other answer I chose. I got each down to the last 2 and each time I had the right answer within the 2. But I think I lose track of my task in drills like this where I know I'm doing WSE only. Then, I assume the task instead of approaching each one as if I didn't know what's coming next.

4/5 then 4/5 after 2 tries. Not 100% but i will take 80% at this rate
fuck this shit, I'm out
3/5 then 5/5 in BR
BANG, another perfect score first time. This is my hardest subject too, so something must be clicking

1/5 then a 5/5 on BR. I think that shows me to slow down and fully read and depict the answer choices
First time I've ever gotten 5/5 correct! Whew finally!
3/5
the last q:

5/5! including two LinkA which are my bane. Know your enemies!
1/5 bye
think i might incorporate more untimed drills. it's nice to sit down and work through some questions.
4/5, then 5/5 on the BR. After that rough section, I'll take it
These ones got me!
Got them all but took an eternity. Seems to be a recurring theme for me lol.

I do not understand how I usually get the most difficult questions right but the easy questions wrong.

@RafaelOrtiz you’re definitely right! Every single question I get wrong is because I over think!

3/5
