I'd like to participate as well. I'm unable to download global gomeeting on my mac or phone so I will join you through the phone !

Hi, I'd like to join you guys however I need to know which preptests you are planning to BR so I don't do them!

So what's the best book for GRE?( I've studied Lsat for about a year already!)

It happens from time to time and I'm thankful for them when they do happen because I have to force myself to work through the question and at times fight with my gut feeling. This is what I do in general if I have a feeling that I remember a question I do my best to find the flaw before I go to the answer choices and if I'm down to two answer choices, I don't pick the one that I remember because it could very much likely be the wrong answer choices I had picked before so more reasons to use logic and reasoning!

From time to time, especially when I reach a plateau, I feel like I'm not capable of doing any better or that maybe I have reached my potential. But then I keep saying to myself "If one can do it- I can do it, if no one can do it, I must do it."And it actually helps!

So Joshua goes from ~referring to something -->meaningless

If you do the contrapositive you get to (A). Answer choice (C) is the opposite of (A).

I hope this helps you!

On my low days of Lsat, "Survivor" from Destiny's Child helps me get throught it!!

Hi,

I just checked the question and it is asking for a necessaey assumption and not a sufficient assumption. The question asks for "which one of the following is an assumption the argument depends?".

As for the correct answer choice "B" is the assumption and the gap between the premise and the conclusion. Also if you negate "B" the argument will be destroyed.

C" is wrong because we don't have to assume that all parts of the flagellum are vital. We just know that it requires many parts to swim.

I usually come up with examples in my mind to make these statements more tangible. So let's say most dogs are black, does that mean that most black things are dogs? No it doesn't. If you diagram these two statements with circles you should be able to see the difference as well. A " might be a small circle that most of it is in "B". But "B" is much bigger than A and only shares a small part with "A". I hope this explanation helps.

Would you say the test was harder than 70 s? Now that we are in 80s I want to know what are the changes we should expect.I know the changes in lsat are gradual and alsoI the LG are getting harder but overall how did you find the test?

@danielznelson160 Thanks Daniel. You are right I don't score 180 and that is my target score in repeated PT. Do you recommend writing down my reasoning for each question during the test and during BR, or just during the BR? For the most part I do write an explanation for the questions I struggle during the BR and also the ones that I got wrong either after BR or during the test. I try to imagine I'm teaching the answers to someone so I force myself to articulate the full explanation. I even try to understand what I did wrong in the test but with not much of a success. Because I don't know why in that 30-60 seconds I made a mistake or what I was thinking unless I missed a word or something. Did you lower your time for the test? Also, another problem of mine is RC like many other test takers. I don't read slowly per se but when I get to the questions I stumble and take more time to Eliminate wrong answer choices as I should but when I BR since I have enough time I can get the answers right. I know its repetitive but what is your suggestion in that area?

@danielznelson160 Thanks so much for sharing your experience with me. I started studying for the lsat again in September. My starting point was 160 under timed condition and right now it has gone up to an average of 170. My BR score started at 89/101 and now it hovers around 96-99/101. I barely have any mistake with LG , at least in these routine LG questions. My main problems are with LR and RC. No matter how many times I see certain flaws and patterns when I come across a new stimulus I just stop seeing those patterns. The reason for loosing my motivation is that I feel like I'm definitely not at 170 and not knowing where I'm sitting at for months its absolutely disheartening.I keep on saying the exact same thing to myself that if I'm not scoring 180 it means that there is room for improvement. But I hope if I could one day score 180 consistently then that would be an indication of my ability to score above 170 in a real test.

How long is this webinar? I'm off work at 7:45. Any chance I could join then?

Thank you all for your responses they were very helpful!

Thanks for your reply. Do you know by any chance when roughlg this test was administered? Also is there anyway to buy that preptest alone? I have the other two preptests. Thanks again

Thank you, I really needed it. I have been preparing for the lsat from this May and I have planning to write Dec lsat. However I'm not even close to what I expected from myself. I did preptests 10-40 untimed (but I blind reviewed) from 40-50 I timed each sections but did them seperately and from 60-70 I wrote them back to back as in a real test. I diligently reviewed and analyze each and every question and always aim to find 4 wrong answers.

unfortunately I have a huge problem with timing, I can barely finish on time and if i do my score is at best 160 (and im very dissapointed) if I'm given a bit extra time i can score much better (170) but I guess that's the case with everyone. At times it is very discouraging... I'll greatly appreciate if anyone could give me any advice on what to do next.
