You don't. It is a waste of time,just make sure you actually answer the question on the exam.
Interesting article especially for those who want to score 170+. I find it very helpful and in some way validates the advice about trusting your gut feeling after mastering the test.

I used a cheap Casio watch with a rotating bezel, and I liked it better than watches with a "reset" timer button anyway.
Would you mind sharing/providing a link to the watch you used? Thanks!

I couldn't find the exact one, but this was the closest. It's a few dollars more expensive than the one I bought, too.
I used a similar watch on my test, it was more than sufficient.
@96453 please do not waste your time by reading Powerscore LR book. I would suggest using the time you want to spend on LR "Bible" more productively by taking advantage of 7Sage analytics and drill question types that show up as high priority for you.
@merdjunk372-1 as much as I would like it to be the case, I think you have high hopes for the LSAC new president :)
Hey, @7sagestudentservices use the 7Sage analytics and question bank to drill your highest priority LR questions. In my case, after finishing the CC flaw questions still gave me a hard time, so I printed 80 or so of the flaw questions and drilled them as well as BRing them and watched J.Y.'s explanation for each of the question. Needless to say, my score improved on the next PT that I took.
Also, you can still improve your score in a relatively short span of time by getting -2 to -0 on LG consistently. LG bundle is part of CC for Ultimate+ users. I would recommend fool proofing LG bundle before taking any new PTs. I quoted one of my recent comments about the way I approached LG bundle I hope it would be useful to you.
My suggestion: after fool proofing LG Bundle, take LG sections of PT 1-35 under time and watch J.Y explanation after completing each section but this time when you watching focus mostly on how he teaches to perceive the right answer choice (instead of brute force) and try to implement his suggestions on the next section.
Do not get bog down on one question (take a hint if possible) but if you find one super difficult and you are confident about your master game board, skip the question answer others in that particular game then come back to it use your other set ups you drew; if nothing works finish the section and if you have extra time come back to it. The ultimate goal is to be able to systematically answer any questions so when under exam pressure you just follow your system. You need to develop a system that works best for you. The system I am trying to follow is like
1- read the question set up the sketch try make obvious inferences
2- check answer choices
3- If still confused take count of the items write them near questions and go through the rules one by one make inferences
4- check answer choices
5- If still stuck, SKIP the question
6- After I have done all other questions I will take another try at it by only checking the question against all of my sketches (I do not try to make inferences again unless I already finished the section)

It depends on your goal, if you are aiming for 170+, you need to go -2 to -0 on LG consistently. LG bundle is part of CC for Ultimate+ users.

@katiebecker202 I printed the games individually from PDF version of PDFs. But as @kimberleemcmillin935 pointed out Ultimate+ has the LG bundle.
@danielznelson160.Sieradzki thanks for your kind words, I learned a lot from you.
@asaunders2010106 Congrats, you are right mastering flaw questions are a necessary condition for success on this test.
Because if intelligence requires CGOB then just establishing non-human animals are intelligence will establish they have consciousness. Therefore, "Intelligence requires behavior" is a weakening answer choice instead of being the necessary assumption.
Remember when sufficient condition is triggered necessary condition will happen as a result.
@aaronkeegan92975 thanks for sharing, I admire your commitment and good luck with your prep.
@aaronkeegan92975 you made the right choice, thanks for sharing. I also ended up postponing and delayed going to law school for a year. It was one of the best decision I made in my life :)
Congrats!
