I just feel like I'm at a wall with LGs, I've reviewed all the material, memorized the game types/boards, but whenever I do a timed section I always seem so miss an extra 3 or 4 questions and end up at -6 or -7 instead of -2 or -3, which is what I'm usually at when I take my time. A lot of my mistakes are just misreading part of the stimulus and then making a faulty assumption off of it. Any tips for keeping a level head?

Thank you this is fantastic advice! I have been doing multiple different sections each day and I have not really gone back and done the same sections over, I see from your advice this isn't the right thing to do. I will return to my previous sections and follow your pointers. Thank you.
Get out of your own head. You are in the zone of "I did everything and it doesn't work." That is a dangerous place to be, because you can psychologically impede your progress. There is no reason to worry.
You went over the material and memorized the content - that's a win!
Now you need to foolproof. No need to do 10 times a game, but 4 at least and utilize the video explanations.
At this stage, you want to do the game, review the explanations when you have trouble, re-do right away replicating the inferences/techniques from the video, re-do next day, and re-do a week later or as needed, until I can come kick you out of bed middle of the night and you can solve it under time.
Think of the prep in 3 stages.
You don't know how to do it - you are watching explanations to ingrain the correct methodology in your brain.
You got the process down - now you are watching for the missed inferences and shortcuts that JY is giving you - the "high-level" techniques.
You are solving the game and looking for shortcuts and high-level approaches that the explanations are missing. Now you are a master of the subject matter.
This will be a grind, but it will inevitably result in -0, depending on how much work you put into it (and if that's your goal).
