Any tips with processing LR passages quickly? It takes me at least double the amount of the "target time" for me to fully process even the easiest passages....

Please help, I do not get this question at all! #Help

Hi All!

I'm currently registered to take the September LSAT. My goal score is a 160+ (160 minimum for me to do apps). I've been consistently scoring in the 154-157 range for the last month. It seems I've hit a plateau. I normally miss about 8 LR, 5 LG, & 10-15 RC. It's obvious reading comp. is my problem area but considering I take the test in only a month and I'm just a few points shy from my goal score, should I try to increase my RC score or focus on perfecting LG since that is the easiest section improve on.

Also, any other general study tips are greatly appreciated!

Why is A wrong

Found it pretty difficult to understand and wrap my head around.

Hey everyone, is it required to take my LSAT writing before my actual LSAT or can it be done after on the same/next day?

Found it pretty difficult to understand and wrap my head around.

Do more time slots usually open up? I took the test once in April and signed up a few days after slots were available and got my preferred time in the morning. This time I'm not able to find any morning slots at all and this kind of sucks because I've only ever PT'd in the morning. I can try making it work but has this happened to any of you?

Can someone help with this?

I thought the missing link between the premise and the conclusion (the conclusion being that functioning of public agencies will improve) is that the stimulus assumes that functioning of public agenices will be improved if these capable experienced admin people returned. So I thought B was correct. Can someone please explain why D is correct?

Could someone please help me with this question? I am confused why C is corrrect; although I agree that author does provide reasons for rejecting an alternative course of action, I don't think he/she arrives at their conclusion 'indirectly' as the stimulus says at the beginning that the proposal to increase fares by 40% 'must be implemented.' surely this suggests that conclusion of this stimulus is direct?

Can anyone offer any tips to master LR? I read loophole and went through 7Sage CC. When I take full length timed practice sections I’m at -2 but when I do a full practice test I’m hitting -7 to -9 on both the scored and experimental sections which is where I was scoring before studying. Anyone else have this issue and have tips on how they improved?

Is it a good strategy to go for the add premises questions first? Seems like J.Y. has been doing it a fair bit especially in the recent tests.

Idk but when the clock is ticking I often freeze up on the questions with no direction despite being able to get them right untimed.

Hi everyone!

I am looking for study buddies/group in Toronto, Canada to either have weekly online meetings or even in person (if the distance between the participants allows). I am currently working my way through the CC and am almost done with LR part. The purpose of this group would be to discuss concepts/strategies, logic through the harder questions and build good habits :)

NOTE: I work part time so my availability is pretty open. I would prefer to choose one day and commit to it so we all build the habit of doing a collaborative review.

Does "tend to" mean a correlation? Like for example if X tends to Y. I thought "tends to" meant causation because I thought it was saying when you have X, you'll have Y which is causation.

I chose answer choice E for this question, but I don't understand why B is the correct answer.

Can someone explain why the answer is E to

PrepTest 3 - Section 4 - Question 12?

I just have one specific question. On parallel reasoning questions, if an answer choice essentially has the same logical force, # terms, and structure as the stimulus except its conclusion is the contrapositive of the previous terms, does that disqualify it as a right answer?

For instance:

Stimulus:

A --> B;

B --> C;

Thus, A --> C

Answer choice:

D --> E

E --> F

Thus, F --> D?

I plan on taking the June 2023 LSAT, but I heard the LG section is being removed. Should I be concerned? Is it a mistake to work in LG right now?

Hiii! I am here to celebrate this victory and ask for some advice! For context, I have been struggling for months to pass the 175+ hurdle (getting from the high160s to the low 170s took forever on its own) and now I finally hit this goal with a 178 on PT 80!! The tactic that seemed to push me into 175+ territory involved taking super slow practice tests to solidify some solid test-taking habits. After a week of that tactic, I finally took a timed PT today and was so pleasantly stunned to see the 178! If I can consistently hit above 175 over the next couple of weeks, I'm planning to take the August LSAT of this year.

HOWEVER, if this score turns out to be a fluke, I'll probably push the test back a couple months. The biggest con to pushing it back (besides the obvious monetary one lol) is that I start my first year of teaching in late-August and know I won't be able to commit as much time to consistent prep. Thoughts on this plan of action?

Hi everyone, does any one have advice or strategy they did to do better on the Reading Comprehension? ( I study on my weakness , but for some reason I still do bad on RC section)

Why is Answer choice D correct and Answer choice A is not?

Hi everyone!

Currently, I am PTing in the mid 150s and looking to get somewhere in the 160s. I would like to have a study partner who can commit to 2-3 times a week on zoom. Preferably someone who is Pting 160 or higher.

If someone is interested please let me know, I would truly appreciate it!

Hi everyone,

I keep hearing that more restrictive rules are better to split the board with. How do you tell if a rule is more or less restrictive?

Thank you in advance for any help.

Example: "We cannot have A without B" or "Without A we cannot have B"

Cannot = group 4 (negate, necessary)

Without = group 3 (negate, sufficient)

Hi everyone,

When sequencing games use years instead of the basic numerical set-up, it really confuses me. Tips on how to speed up my process when I get something like 1989-1995 instead of 1-7? Should I put the years on my game board?

Thank you in advance for any help.
