Okay, so I've been taken ~2 PTs/ week for the last month, and I'm still having issues with my timing for reading comprehension. Often times, I need an extra 5 minutes to finish all 4 passages + questions. Does anyone have any tips/advice for improving my reading speed?
Thanks!
So happy, I suck at using scantrons so this will help me a ton
I am registered for the July 15th exam and if I choose to cancel (aftere registering for the September exam) could I get a refund check for the September exam after my September score has been reported? I know freebie takes start in October but was wondering if this was also an option.
Hi everyone.
The only games that really give me trouble when I take PT's are those categorized as "miscellaneous." I pretty much resort to coming at them with little to no visual representation, and letting the rules guide me to as many answers as I can get. It usually results in me missing most of the questions, and makes me loose about 5-6 questions on LG where in the other games I get either -0 or -1. I'm sure I am not the only one who has been here. Does anyone have advice on how to get better at miscellaneous game types?
Hey Guys,
Is it possible to mess up one rule in a sequencing game, but go through all the questions without even realizing it???
Why I ask this is because: I was doing PT 43 S4 Game 2, and i messed up the last rule where VZ row closer than O. Instead I diagrammed as VL row closer than O.
The questions never made me realize I committed this fatal error, until question 12 (the very last question of the game) where i realized my big mess up.
Now the question is, is it possible that maybe in a future LG, I will just never realize i diagrammed one rule incorrectly and get alllllll the questions wrong in a simple sequencing game???
Does anyone have recommendations for supplemental materials in reviewing valid and invalid argument forms?
I started the sufficient lesson today however I realized I need to go back and review the prior lessons. I did not locate a 7sage webinar on validity, any suggestions in addition to reviewing the valid and invalid lessons?
Im just having a bit of a hard time wrapping my head around how to best prepare for those unusual games like the virus game etc.
Any tips?
I seem to have a difficult time telling apart (or recognizing ) grouping games w/ a chart, regular grouping games, and grouping games with sub-catagories. Is there anything in the questions that makes know which game is which? or does it just come from expierence?
hi all, i am consistently taking over 35 minutes to complete LR sections (im talking 20-25 minutes over). i fluctuate between -3 and -5 but it takes me so long. Im worried if i rush through in the 35 mins ill do a lot worse. Any suggestions?
I figure that the July test is almost a gimme since I can cancel if my score is not great. But I'm about one month out and still 4-5 points from where I'd like to be.
Hey guys!
I am taking the July exam and have been scoring a 164 for the past several practice tests. Reading comp is my worst section, and I fluctuate between -8/-12. On logical reasoning I score between a -6/-8 on one section and a -2/-3 on the other. Thankfully, I have logic games under control. Any tips on how I can break the plateau and make the most out of the remaining month before the exam?
Thank you in advance!
Hi,
Could someone tell me if 7Sage helps with understanding the types of games you encounter on the LG section? This seem to be one of my main barriers for the LG portion. Any suggestions?
Hi everyone! I took my first LSAT on June 3rd, so I do not have a writing sample on file. Do I need to complete the new digital writing section before scores are released on the 27th in order to receive my score? I can't find anything on the FAQ, but I've heard that you have to before you get a score.
I am getting discouraged. I have been studying since January and did the CC really slow and in-depth so I could learn it better. Now I am taking preptests and reviewing only. My diagnostic score was 150. I have taken 3 other prep tests scoring: 156, 153, 154. I never know how to improve my score after taking the prep tests. I would really like to get high 150s and max 160 if possible. I'm taking the july LSAT.
I need tips for studying and how to improve. Also, the reality of if I can improve that much before july?
Hi all!
So I just finished PT 79 & 80, which each had the weird misc games. In one of the videos, JY mentions that these weird ones are now pretty typical.
What test # are we on now? 90-something? And are these misc games still common to see in each test? (I don’t have the Ultimate package, so will just know the 10 Actuals up to 81 situation)
Many thanks.
Is "some" the negation of "never"
Thank you!
I am trying to get a 175 or above in July. I typically get -1 on each LR section and 0 to -2 on RC. I am getting -2 wrong on almost every Logic Games-- it is not a time issue and there is no consistency in the questions I get wrong although almost always the wrong answers are either in game 3 or 4. I would like to get down to -1 or 0 on games. I'm not sure what to do at this point to help improve. Would foolproofing games at this level be helpful or should my time be spent another way. Sometimes its a missed inference, sometimes I misunderstood the question, and very rarely I am just stumped. Once I go over the questions I get wrong I seem to get it and can do the game again correctly but then there is another error on a different game. I have taken approximately 15 tests so far all with - 2 on logic games. Thanks.
For those people with excessive planning problems...
Only counted two sections from 70s, and was 95min, 98min ea.
So I am have a simple/lazy issue. How do you guys set up your rules and game board. Do you do it like J.Y. says "next to the questions? Or other wise. Becasue we talk about having extra space below for drawing game boards but then it will not be next to each question. Also, if I write lawgic rules and original game boards below the rules on the first page, then after the first question I am constantly flipping back-and forth which makes me lazily try to just remember rules in my head to save time and that means I am not checking off/blocking rules as I make inferences on each question (sometimes missing a rule and spending more time eventually on questions). I started writing my rules on the back page instead with most of the questions and flipping back-and-forth only to translate rules and do the first question. What have you been doing? Or is this inevitable?
When they say that scores come out June 27, does it mean like 12:01 am or will they just drop at some point that day

Hi everyone!
Is anyone in the Vancouver BC area interested in starting a study group? I usually study at BCIT, but am willing to go to UBC/kits/downtown or to SFU! Studying for July but am also writing in September
