I sat for the exam on sunday and had 2 LGs, LG-LR-RC-LG... honestly my ideal circumstance but the LR did feel a little difficult. Feel like I did okay on the LGs equally but both of their last games were time sinkers for me that I ended up having to guess some on. The RC was bearable but the final passage about science I almost completely guessed on because the language was so dense. Anyone else felt this way?
Tested this morning and this exam felt harder than the August one that's for sure.... I also had tech difficulties for the first like 40 minutes so my attention span was not where I needed it to be when I finally started... ugh
I was exactly you about a week ago. Very nervous about where to start, didn't want to waste my money, and just feeling very overwhelmed. My best advice is just to dive in. Definitely try free trials or samples of books if that suits you so you can zero in on a particular service or teacher. Personally, I considered my own learning strengths and preferred learning methods and settled on 7Sage because while I can sit and read out of a book to learn, I like when things are drawn out for me and someone is "there" with me so I don't doze off (I considered hiring a tutor but too expensive). I'm only a few sections into this course's syllabus and JY is super helpful and I'm learning a lot already. 7Sage has amazing reviews beyond this site also.
As far as buying multiple study materials, I am not trying to spend a ridiculous amount of money studying so in a month, I'm going to re-evaluate my study methods and if my progress keeps up, I plan to continue my subscription with 7Sage next month. (If it doesn't, I'll cancel and try something new.) And if I feel like I need additional study material along the way, I'll consider other supplementary material like the Powerscore Bibles and Mike Kim's LSAT Trainer. This is just the most logical way for me personally to rationalize, plan, and discipline my study habits. Otherwise, you run the risk of not getting your money's worth and wasting precious study time. Hope that helps!
@AkLSAT2020 had a great comment below, just reposting closer to the top in case their idea helps: "There is an easier way to do this. There is a gap from premises to conclusion. It is saying 25/100 of films were based on “novels” and then goes on to say that a quarter of all films ( 25/100) were based on “Books” ( All of the Books). [this is a false equivalency in the conclusion] To make the conclusion justified and valid though, It must have been There wasn’t any film based on the books other than novels [could be magazines, short stories, etc.]. Which is answer B."
strangely enough, while an anecdote like this would normally induce fear and anxiety in me, it brings me a weird sense of comfort knowing there is only literally one correct answer so my most important job is sus-ing out the problems with the other four
LSAC has such a unique way of making the most simples ideas so beyond convoluted that by the time you reach the end of the 3-4 sentences, you feel like your mind ran a mini marathon. I had to watch Jy's explanation of the stimulus twice to fully grasp the connection between the premises and final "because..." sentence.
Hi, I'm interested.
