I work fulltime and I am in a similar boat. I have way less time than I used to at the start of my LSAT journey. When it comes to burnout what tends to help me is not necessarily a longer break but a switchup in activity. Rather than changing the actual schedule (because then coming back in is MUCH harder) the exact time where you would have studied pick something you really really enjoy and do that for either a week or a few days straight. This will give your mind a little bit of a break without destroying your schedule, which atleast for me trying to get back into a routine is always the hardest part so that atleast mitigates that a bit. In references to burnout during work. I try to just take as many walks as possible or reschedule my day but that is because my job allows it. Anywho I hope this helps. Good Luck!
So I got this wrong initially. However, this is how I have worked it out (if you chose A instead of B like me). Note the "lower still" in answer choice A. It wouldn`t necessarily need to be "lower" it could be just slightly worst than normal. It could have still been down in the absence of the competitor`s advertising campaign but higher than what the marketing consultant predicted. In that case there could be another reason besides the campaign for sales to be down. Cue in Answer B which considers economic factors that might have affected the campaign`s success. Hope this helps.
This is so helpful for visual learners like me. Being able to move it around while seeing how the relationships change is so good! I especially love the percentages changes for the most vs some vs all.
During an actual exam you would have to push through. Personally I try to come up with something like a silly reminder or a short breathing excise to calm down so I don't panic. Personally if it gets too bad I have taken breaks even a week or 2 off. Also for rebuilding focus go semi-slow. Don't jump back full send immediately. Your brain might go into shock and freeze up again. Overall it is temporary but you have to be aware of it so you can figure out the best way to push through it for you. My recs: take a breath maybe do some yoga/stretch, drink some water, try reading the question outloud and reflect and keep it going.
I personally go to a library or cafes that are only a few mins from my job. Then I can go directly after work and NOT go home. I will then study for maybe 2 hours and head home. Personally if I go home right after work I won't do anything/nearly as much as I should. I try to switch up the environment (within reason) as much as possible to keep myself stimulated. Personally peer pressure also works for me so finding places where other people are working/studying also helps if you have that available to you.
@AmyDoval That would be great! I will see how the 7 Sage groupchat works. If not then I will send you a pm.
Hey y'all!
I'm looking for some people who plan on taking the August LSAT who would like to be accountability/"parallel play" buddies. I would like to have atleast one (set) in person meetup a week and 2+ flexible weekly meet ups and/or checkins (online/hybrid/in-person). For the most part we will be working on our own Study Plans but together (and trying to answer each other's questions if necessary) . General preferance towards full time people due to schedule but all are welcome to respond. Bonus points if you are also averaging in the mid to high 150s but 170s for Blind Review like me ~~(😗)~~. I reallyyy want the August LSAT to be the last official one I have to take.
@RedFish I feel like I get more anxious from not being productive but I'll try to relax a bit for the next few days.
I am trying not to freak out. But my most recent PTs have all been steadily decreasing by 1 or 2 points and the same for the blind review (directly proportionally). Plus side, I have been getting harder questions correct. Downside is that I am getting easier questions incorrect and overthinking them even in blind review. I am taking the exam in April. I know they just did a podcast on kind of the same thing, but like I don`t have that much time. I know it's probably stress (health and work), but I don`t feel stressed, just numb to new information. Am I plateauing?
@David_Busis Personally I would find that process super helpful. I don't want it to mess up what I have done in the past. Which is my issue whenever I went to recalculate the schedule. However I would want it to realistically recalculate based on what I have left.
@Kihla333 Thank you. I would love that for regular studying so I will look into that as well. But I am looking for one that I can use during the exam (only foam).
Hey everyone! I have small ears and was wondering if anyone had a really good recommendation for foam earplugs. The last time I took the exam in the testing center, they gave me these over-ear headphones, but they weren`t enough, particularly when the proctor came to help a student next to me. The closer to noise-cancelling, the better. Thanks!
I broke it down like this to understand.
Hopefully it helps:
For Freedom of Thought (FOT) to be a precursor to Intellectual Progress, (IP) you must use the following conditional statement:
FOT -> IP
But since FOT causes the Pursuit of Ideas (POI). You end up with:
FOT -> POI-> IP
However, you CAN`T have FOT and Intellectual Discipline (ID) at the same time. They directly contradict each other per their definitions. Since So:
FOT -> NOT ID
Where you have freedom of thought you can`t have intellectual discipline is answer C.
Please tell me if this makes sense.
If other insects similar to bees do not NEED to perceive an object's color. Then the other thing, the flower, must have NEEDED to change somehow to cause the bee to develop a response to flower color. Imagine you have a bee and a dragonfly, and they both can see flowers but pollinate indiscriminately. The evolutionary advantage would be more favorable for the flower to change than the bee because the flower wants the bee to come closer/pollinate it more often.
@Stas1973 I think this leads you to the same thing as the email information but you have to use your LSAC account to gain access. https://www.lsac.org/reimagining-legal-education/strategy-booster
