Self-study
Would anyone be interested in taking collaborative practice tests or sections? In the high school classes that I teach, one thing my professional learning community (team) does is we have our students take a multiple choice test, then we group them by score and have them take the test again as a group, but in the following highly structured way: Person 1 reads the question, Person 2 answers, Person 3 agrees or disagrees, and Person 4 restates and re-explains, and the roles rotate every question. We have seen marked improvement in their overall thought processes throughout the year. A critical component is that they do not know the official test answers (or their grades, but that's not really possible here on this platform) on their second pass of the test. I am not sure if this specific set of roles is perfect for the LSAT, but I think it could be interesting to workshop. Let me know your thoughts!

@GeraldParrott not sure! I think I would send a when2meet out once a few people have joined the group. I will probably take my next PT on May 30, so I would suggest May 31 for a group test. However I’m not sure if we want to start at full length tests for group testing, so if we were going to do sections instead, I will be taking 1 LR section on May 22 and then I would send out a when2meet for May 23 for a post-mortem group test. The vision is that everyone takes the section/test, waits 24 hours without looking at the right answers, and then takes it again all together to really force understanding.
