Hey guys, I've been studying for two months now and have learned all the foundations of Logical Reasoning. Currently, I'm scoring between -13 and -8 in the best-case scenario. Should I just keep drilling and focusing on accuracy, or is there another key to mastery at this point? Even with a solid understanding of the foundations, question types, and stimulus identification, I still find the test very challenging.
What do you guys think is better, drilling 5-10 questions on LR with a random difficulty level or drill untimed and timed sections?
What has helped you improved the most?
How have you improved with timing?
When I read a Reading Comprehension passage, I always look for the main idea, like where the author’s opinion or argument stands. For Main Point questions, does the correct answer always show where the author stands? For example, if the first paragraph supports idea A, but paragraphs 2 and 3 support idea B, will the right answer for the Main Point question always reflect the overall support for idea B?
I have been doing a couple of NA questions and I have noticed that the right answer choice sometimes sounds stupid but most of the time is linked to something said in the conclusion. Would this always be the case? Is the right answer for NA questions always linked to something that was mentioned in the conclusion?
Strengtening questions are a lot easier for me than weakening questions. I don't understand why they are giving me such a hard time. Specially these that have "EXCEPT" on them, the LSAT testwriters make the answer choices slightly weakened so it's hard to tell if it weakens it or not. It's almost like if you have to assume that they weaken the argument.

I have realized that for certain NA questions, when I try to negate the answer choices, the answer choice gets even more confusing to understand. And I don't believe it is because I am negating it incorrectly, it just that when I negate the answer choice it does not make sense at all. Should I keep in mind that it is better to not use the negation method for certain NA questions or should I force myself to understand the negation of the answer choice?

Hey, I’m interested in joining. What are the steps to follow?
