How do you go about reviewing your wrong answer journal? When do you return to those questions? I'm trying to keep up with it, but I'm not sure what I'm really supposed to do with them when after I've moved on. There are so many more drills, lessons, tests, and questions to do, when do you take time to go back through them?

I'm new to the Discussion portion of the site, so apologies if this should be posted elsewhere. I'm wondering if there's a support group for those of us applying for test accommodations. I'm the process of requesting physical accommodations + extra time and would be interested in others' experience. Thanks in advance.

I’m not sure why I do this but I like to take PT and only finish one section to see my score. Is there a way to delete PR data since I have a few sections saying I got -25 -26 and it messes up my data. I’m not sure how to do it on the new website

Just a few weeks ago, I was seeing my RC score improving. I was at about -6 or -7, which definitely was an improvement for me as RC was something I was scared of. However, as of late, I am consistently getting -10 on my practice tests and full section RC practices. I am looking for any tips to resolve this, or even hypotheses as to why this may be happening. I am taking the August LSAT and really want to land in the 160's, but this is hindering my process and making me nervous. Thank you!

Salespeople always steer customers toward products from which they make their highest commissions, and all salespeople in major health stores work on commission. Hence, when you buy vitamin supplements in a major health store, you can be sure that the claims the salespeople make about the quality of the products are inaccurate.

Obviously this is an ad hominem. I know that. But we are taught to apply a two step test: descriptively accurate and does it describe the flaw.

the right answer choice?

infers that some claims are inaccurate solely on the basis of the source of those claims

translation: 1-99 of claims are inaccurate, solely on the basis of the source of those claims.

how is this descriptively accurate? the argument assumes because sales people have specific incentives, salespeople are not telling the full truth.

the argument never says SOME claims are inaccurate, instead it says THE CLAIMS ARE INACCURATE. how the hell am I supposed to see the invisible some? Also the argument never says they are liars because they are sales people, it says it's because they work on commission.

someone tell me how I am wrong. I feel like im getting punished for being detail oriented.

bug with analytics

Hi! Looking for tech support: my average missed questions section in my analytics is broken for RC. I'm told I have an average of -0, and unfortunately, this is not true! Is there a reason its not updating properly? Would be helpful to track progress.

I have noticed that blind review is sometimes an option after completing the individual questions and drills in the core curriculum, and sometimes it is not. Is there a way to tell before we open the question if we will be given the chance to blind review?

Context vs. Premise

Hi! I am starting to get into deeper content analysis after doing a good bit of practice, I want to get some clarification on how to discern the difference between premises and context, for the sake of the author's argument. This is a general area that could help me, but the question came up originally when I was reviewing Argument Part questions.

Does anyone have recs for questions/drills I can do to improve on alternative hypotheses? I'm practicing S/W/E but this flavor always trips me up!

Ex: this argument is strengthened/weakened by proving/disproving an alternative hypotheses

I did a level 4 MC question earlier (PT 126/S1/Q18 if you're curious), and I am realizing that I struggle knowing how to differentiate the context from the conclusion. Sometimes, typically on easier questions, it is obvious to me, but on harder ones like this, it is hard for me to understand it. I am fairly good at differentiating support from the conclusion, but the context throws me off since it is sometimes used as a reference rather than as support.

Does anyone have any tips? Thanks!

What does it mean when you finish a drill and it says recommended for BR? I just did an RC drill and it recommended 3 questions for BR even though I had gotten all the questions correct initially. This made me think that my original answer was incorrect and so I searched for another answer even though what I had originally put down was correct. I am wondering how these questions are flagged as recommended for BR?

I'm asking this because I noticed a LARGE gap between the raw score and BR score on the RC section... Since I can reach about 85%-95% accuracy when doing the BR I think the issue could be I'm being too slow...?

I really need some suggestions on how to improve and also any strategies..?

Basically, im in the range now of trying to get my LR average from -6/-5 to the -4 range, and my RC is also holding me back, Im consistently get -6 to -8 range every RC section almost singlehandedly because I get rocked my 1 passage. Ive been trying to fix my timing issues on RC and its been helpful, but on my last PT i didnt leave enough time to really get at a passage, and it was in this 5 star passage I saw a common trend with my other PTs. I consistently get maybe 1 or 2 questions wrong on the easier passages, and on the 4 and 5 star ones ill get almost every single question wrong, what did you guys do who had a similar problem?

Been struggling to understand Lawgic. Well into the 7Sage Curriculum and just always seem to get lost on questions where I have to map conditionals out. Anyone have any advice besides going back through the core curriculum? Ideally, I just want a worksheet (with answers to check) where I can just drill mapping conditional sentences/paragraphs out.

Blind Review on New Site

I am a bit confused on doing my blind review as I do the "You Try"s throughout the curriculum on the new site. It was a visible option on the previous site, and you had to certify you did the blind review before obtaining your results, but I do not see that option on the new site. However, when I press submit, it says I did not do the blind review. Am I missing the option to do so somewhere?

For context, I have studied for the LSAT off and on every 4-6 months or so for the last 2 years (post-bacc gap years) while working 2 full time jobs. I have recently stepped down to a part time and full time and am looking to dedicate more time to consistently study not that I'm not working as much anymore.

The last time I took a diagnostic was through a different platform (Blueprint, I think) before Logic Games was taken off (Rip Logic Games - I miss you), but I can't even remember what score I got or which test I took. Obviously I want to make the most out of the practice tests while studying, and I plan on registering for either the January or February test.

I'm about half way through Foundations (starting from scratch all over again since it's been too long since I last studied), so I know I still have a lot of material left to cover, but just wanted to put some feelers out there for any helpful advice.

Thanks!
