I’m currently scoring in the 150s on timed PTs, although I tend to perform considerably better when working through individual drills. I mention that just to give an honest picture of where I am in my studying.
I’ve been preparing on my own for a long time, and I keep hearing that having a study partner can be one of the best ways to improve. The last LA-area study group post I found was pretty old, and I’m guessing some of those people may have already taken the test—or might even be in law school by now—so I thought I’d start a new one.
I’d love to find someone who wants to benefit from our respective strengths and weaknesses. I stink at conditional logic and accurately mapping parallel questions. I struggle the least with Reading Comprehension.
I’m located in the Los Angeles/San Fernando Valley area. If you’re interested, please feel free to reach out!
Oh - and thank you so much for your honesty and willingness to share! This is a wonderful post!
Not at all. I have noticed a trend: people who took a formal logic course as undergraduates have a major advantage on LR, particularly when it comes to conditional and causal reasoning. I began pursuing law without any guidance from my parents or my peers. Had I known that I could take courses that would improve my LSAT performance while earning my bachelor’s degree, I certainly would have taken advantage of that opportunity.
Not sure if that's the case for you, but either way, don't worry. It's an unrepresentative sample ;)
Don't do what I do sometimes, which is letting the test define me...
Anyway, good luck!
Best,
Joseph

Thank you for this post. Just fantastic. Good luck!
Why is there no Live Takes module? These videos are very helpful, especially for quickly reviewing different question types, but I can only find them when I happen to come across one in a question explanation during a drill. This is quite frustrating, and hunting them down wastes time and energy that would be better spent learning from them.
Thanks,
Joseph
@danjpeach96 Actors need cues to know when to speak. you need to know more than just your own lines to act in a play. a spectator could write down one soliloquy. i think its more of an assumption to say an actor did not have a copy.

@ChristopherAlfonso don't trip! slow down your pace and ignore the study plan! use the AI coach!
THIS!!!!! I was having a serious identity crisis there for a minute! "Ok, so I have no problem understanding Gravity's Rainbow, but I CANNOT get better at this test... am I doomed?!" Slowed down with the AI coach and have seen a 10 point jump in a week.
THANK YOU for your post!
@Kevin_Lin, Yes, exactly. Some of the ones I have watched have a sort of "train-of-thought" commentary. I find that watching those is super helpful for getting the mindset in gear before taking a timed PT.
If you have other suggestions, I would love to hear them. I am here to learn!
Thank you so much!!!
