For PT3.S2.12 I don't get the math

So, I've already gone through equations on powerscore and manhattan prep.

Let's say Ppp was $100 20 years ago, and now $10

while tpp was $8 20 years ago, and now $11(as it doesn't say how much it had increased)

20 yrs ago, tpp was way cheaper than Ppp and it was more than10 times of tpp.

Still, currently Ppps offer a less expensive approach than tpp.

So my question would be, not knowing the increase rate of TPP, why do we have to assume that TPP*10 > Ppp 20 years ago?

#Help #AdviceNeeded October LSAT

Hi, I started studying for LSAT in June but joined 7sage just a week ago.

As I already have done something equivalent to core curriculum, now I'm on PTs.

I scored 151 on my untimed cold test in May and am aiming for 167 in October.

I've done PTs from 1 to 5 scoring 160 or 161.

I planned to take LSAT in January 2021 but felt the need to push myself harder and $45 score preview motivated me to shoot for October.

Now as I know I don't have enough time to do all the PTs before the test unfortunately,

I would really appreciate some advice from those studying for or who have achieved high-rise in short term.

  • Should I focus on latest PTs? or do random ones? (I'm expecting to do 4 PTs and BRs a week which sum up 28PTs before Oct.)
  • Any other advice on 7-week study schedule?
  • Thanks!

    I'd like to ask for some advice on how to go through problem sets in CC "wisely".

    What I'm doing now is watch JY's general explanation on q.type,

    do the Qs on my own and then watch JY's explanation clips checking if I got it right or wrong,

    then doing Problem Sets attached to it.

    Now for Problem Sets, after checking the result, I watch the explanation clip right away, read some comments and then move on.

    That's when I feel stuck. I feel like this process doesn't get me anywhere to develop advanced logical thinking to solve any questions at similar level. I've read many comments trying to articulate the reasoning on their own but I feel like sometimes I just memorize JY's argument. Should I still try to explain it on my own after(or before) watching the explanation?

    Would that help me acquire or broaden my reasoning?

    I'm already registered for Oct flex which will be my first exam but I haven't reached the score I'm aiming on PT.

    As I took some prep classes before joining 7sage and I don't have much time left before October flex,

    I was going to tackle only on q.types I'm weak in, but I changed my mind and decided to finish CC as soon as possible.

    I'm so depressed now that I don't see any improvements in my PT score(avg 157) and I can see why when I go through Problem Sets.

    What am I doing wrong?

    Should I try to explain every answer choice while doing Problem Sets or BR before watching the explanation?

    Do I have enough time for that? or would that be more effective way to score any higher?

    Any advice, encouragement welcomed. :(

    (Btw, my goal is to get somewhere around 170 in January)

    Are you sure?
