Hi all, I am taking the lsat in september, and i am scoring in the low 160's rn. I am looking to create a virtual study group to meet everyday for 4 hours, where we can study, and exchange tips/ tricks. Please let me know if you are interested:)

How i approached this question:Which one of the following best summarizes the author's view of the results of Zanotto's study? could be wrong reasoning
a- makes sense, the glass researches(ie scientist) implied they were confused as to why people have this myth.
b- its not a settled argument.. clearly people are still confused
c- this to me is not considered a plausible explanation
d- there is no reconciling of the 2 hypothesis
e- just no... because we clearly identify craftsmanship/ manufacturing as a cause to the thicker glass from the medieval ages.
You know what? This section wasn’t bad. Did I get a few wrong? Yes. Was it because I doubted myself during blind review? Also yes.
But I want to share one piece of advice I stumbled upon before I started studying for the LSAT — and fair warning, it might be controversial. (No harm or offense intended; this is just the mindset that’s been keeping me going ever since I got my ass handed to me by the NA and SA sections.)
If you get questions wrong both timed and untimed — that’s a skill issue. so go back, take it slow, and work on the foundation.
If you get them wrong timed but right untimed — that’s a timing issue. so you gotta drill in the techniques for AC's that pertain to each question type.
This really resonated with me. Obviously, timing is crucial on the LSAT — it's often the difference between a good score and a great one. But when you’re working through the curriculum, the key is mastering the foundation. Once you’ve got that down, everything else builds on it.
I am with you! This is not an easy journey, and i commend everyone for getting this far.
Hi, I am interested. I am scoring in the low 160's but would love to learn from/ with all of you
i was between A and E , like most of the others in the chat, but i realized that A answered the first part of the stimulus, but it was not the hypothesis. so with POE i went to E and was like up this makes sense.
how i went about answering this:
a- at first i crossed it out cuz i was like... this is too much of a jump to conclusions
b- heck yea, all my indicator words... but then i looked at all the other options,
c-talks about russia, but too specific so i rule it out
d- eco fact.. not mentioned in the reading or anything alluding to the levels of the seals, so cross
e-how do we know this? was it proved, or stated?
ok with POE we are left with 2 options:
a- well it says that the seal treaty prohibited the hunting of seals, and i would assume because it didn't specify the traditional exemptions, even Alaskan natives were not allowed, that means the MMPA ALLOWED the use of tradition
b-it says in this MMPA treaty it was stated? using my low res map, i look to the text and it never mentions that so.... cross it out
SO A is the answer!
