I'm so glad you're sharing your truth. I was in a similar position for two years because of the LSAT. It really ruined my confidence and my mental health. After therapy, reflection and tapping into my strong support system, I am happy with who I am outside being a law school applicant. I didn't get my dream score (five points shy) but I've still been admitted to UVA and Berkeley in this cycle. My point is to anyone reading this is live life outside of studying. It truly is just a test. Your sense of self is so much more important. You will succeed in the long run, I believe, as long as your intentions are right.
Do you guys remember which game had the substitution question? First, second, third, or fourth?
I would suggest doing whatever makes you most fulfilled. Either profession is costly in both time in money, though med school is more time-intensive. In order to stick either profession out with some semblance of sanity, I'd recommend making sure you're genuinely interested in the values of the job and its day-to-day duties---that way no matter what you have to pay, no matter what your hours are, you'll be happy doing it.
#help D says “reaches a conclusion about the performance of one member of a group...” but the conclusion in the argument is not about performance it’s about her not being deserving of receiving a bonus. So my question is, is the “conclusion” D is referring to an unstated subconclusion that she was also not productive, or is it indeed referring to the stated conclusion and I am misunderstanding?
I chose C instead of D for this very reason because I thought D was descriptively inaccurate of the conclusion and I thought “a wholly different group” in C could refer to Laing.
#help can someone please explain how the first sentence gives support to the conclusion? Is the first sentence just a reiteration of the second one??? Struggling to see the first sentence’s role in the argument.
If I am forgetting lines in a passage (for example that X rarely occurs or that X percentage of something does something else) that support an AC in a question therefore leading me to getting questions wrong, what larger problem do you think that’s a symptom of? Should I be reading more slowly for nuance and/or is my memory method process faulty?
The scenario that happened more than once in a recent PT is that I thought none of the ACs were supported in a question so I chose “the best” AC begrudgingly even though I recognized the flaws in it. On BR though I ultimately found the part of the passage that supported an AC that I originally thought was unsupported. I realized I had forgotten about a line or part of the passage.
@jy-ping would you be able to host PT 70's sessions from 8 PM - 10 PM EST?
@alan-91620 thanks for the update!! I was just about to message you asking for an explanation.
Same exact thing happened to me with the same preptest @arman6592
Also are we supposed to see the countdown clock for the entire 35 minutes? The clock only showed up for the last 5 minutes for me.
I hope in the future we will be able to see the amount of time we spent on each question as we go over our PT at the end--would be super helpful and would take away the need of having to videotape yourselves when doing the PT. In the meantime, the digital tester is very helpful. Thank you as always!
#help how could ratio even support the idea of "increasing the number of police officers"?
#help would B be another NA if it instead more loosely said something along the lines of, "the magazine giving a favorable mention in its articles is related to increasing the suspicions of the reader that the magazine's editorial integrity has been compromised" ?
I wish I had picked up the LSAT Trainer book earlier. It's a great companion to 7sage. Gives a strong foundation in picking up flaws and setting good habits
This might help if this was your issue. It was attributing cause to the "BURROWING ACTIVITIES of the termites," not just "termites" in general. So to strengthen we would need specific evidence that reflects on the former
#help can anyone help me find the 15 minute version online to download?
Yeah... My sister's BFFs went to Columbia and NYU. The girl who went to NYU took out exorbitant loans to cover her living costs, so much so that she regrets having gone to NYU. I'm a native NYer like @leahbeuk911 and am also looking to leave NY for law school to avoid the living hassle.
Specifically some questions of LR on section 4. Let me know! I'm around this week. We can do a phone call.
Would appreciate it
Definitely study in the AM. I would do 5:30 to 7 when I was studying. Then I would work out after work.
