@leyabassil03 Hang in there. I started keeping a small wins journal in a Word document. It helps me show that there is progress even when it seems that there isn't. You are going to get into Law school! Keep going!
@leyabassil03 It has been sobering to start off but I am getting the hang of both speed and timing. Remember this ios a test of intellect, not intelligence. Anyone can get good at it fi they have the focus, discipline and drive to do so. Do not get discouraged, there are too many 140-170+ improvement stories so it is possible. Take drills here and there-gotta take those training wheels off and learn to ride at some point. Also thoroughly review mistakes and understand reasoning why you got question incorrect and why "X" is the correct answer. You got this !!
Im gonna whoop the LSAT's a** come test day with a 175 and I started at a 146. I hope everyone here is looking to do the same!
I'm feeling good so far, getting frustrated when I get a question wrong and then reread the question in BR and know immediately what one is right. I still got a long way to go :/
@diakonnatalia You aren't! You got this! Keep going and keep track of your wins. They add up over time, and before you know it, you're getting more and more questions right.
@diakonnatalia look, Simpl3 jAcK could get a 175 on this if he really wanted to. I mean shit if I could talk to horses I damn sure better be able to ace this.
Right Now I am doing as good as I can. I am working full time while studying. I got accepted into the law school that I wanted to go to. But I am taking the LSAT one final time to boost my score to get more scholarship opportunities from the school. I'm focusing more on concept comprehension more than speed. I take the test in April so I am averaging 20+ hours a week in study time. The material is helpful. Pray that I can finish strong y'all!
Routing for you man! Working full time and getting accepted is NOT easy - i reduced my hours to even think about being successful on the LSAT lol. You got this!
I really like the sections where it breaks down how to better answer different question types. I just wish there was something that can help me improve my speed...maybe a timer?
Generally good, although from time to time I'll encounter a question that I just can't sort out in my head, and there isn't really a strong explanation, it just says something like "A is most supported, because insert premise from stim" but it doesn't break down the logic behind it.
Sometimes you just need to take a break and come back. I find myself getting more answers right after coming back a little while later and trying again
This type of LR I'm not confident in. What's funny is that I've been getting 5/5 on the drills but my time was way over the suggestion, which I'm fine with. I guess I just need to keep practicing so that I gain my confidence. I would love to see how people are tackling the MSS questions.
Much better than my past courses. LSAT demon basically just tells you you’re dumb for not knowing the answers LOL I mean some of the logic helped for sure, but this breaks it down to where I can actually understand at like a low level and build up.
I like the course and getting a solid foundation on logical reasoning. But, if anyone has recommendations on how to review the daily content, I would appreciate any advice. My main concern is that I continue the course and forget the information.
For the lessons I feel like we should just have the drill first and then see the explanation? just seeing the explanation video without doing the question myself isn't as helpful because I'm just passively listening to "this is correct" instead of being engaged and comparing what I thought to what is correct.
I personally do the question myself first then compare my answer to what JT got. This has helped me a lot especially in finding areas I am more intuitively good at. As well as areas that I need to be more skilled on.
I enjoy when I can try to answer the questions in the video myself before watching it completely. I like to be able to review my answer choices and understand why I got a potential question correct/incorrect.
The study plan has been helping me so much with refreshing and learning new information. I’m excited to see what my pt score would be once I finish the curriculum.
I like the program. I think there are plenty of lessons that "could've been done in an email," instead of a 7-10 min vid, or multiple lessons squashed into one. THere's a lot of good. The conversational style of the lessons feels very welcoming.

I wish every lesson has a video attatched!
the LSAT makes me wonder if I'm cut out to be a lawyer LMAO (mainly bc I hate taking tests) but so far I see improvement! #iamscaredofthelsat
@kyorofan20 preach
The Logical Reasoning section is much easier because of the videos that were not present for a good portion of the Foundations section.

after the most recent drill I feel really defeated with MC and MSS :(
@Kaylarwarmolts sameee :(

How often do you think we should be taking PTs? Once a month? Once a week? I haven't taken a PT since my diagnostic so I'm just wondering.
@SeanWolfe I have this question too!!
@SeanWolfe When are you planning on taking your LSAT? I have a similar question as i just registered for August
@Katrina.chaf I read that you should at least take 10 before you sit for the real exam!
Not going well. But I guess it’s just because I’m dumb

crying
I am starting to think it is less of me not understanding and more of me just being a moron.
I relate, only on day three of studying and cannot see me getting most of these questions right.

Please, please, please release videos for all parts of this curriculum.
Only feedback is to please bring back the videos! For me they are still missing on a lot of the lessons and I really like to have them.

@SofiaFuentes I agree with you as I have a similar concern

Some of the videos do not offer you the opportunity to do the drill and instead only offer the explanation video. Am i missing something?
if you look at "quick view" you can see the question before starting the videos
I enjoy when I can try to answer the questions in the video myself before watching it completely. I like to be able to review my answer choices and understand why I got a potential question correct/incorrect.

I'd like a section on answer types, including trick cookie-cutter answer types.
