I just submitted petition and got approved. Basically just wrote I felt February would be more representative of my potential. Think Columbia is pretty liberal about granting approval. Shouldn’t be tough just needs to be in before January 1st. Good luck!

just to get it clear that means doing the games with @ strategy requires you to do the game 4x on day 1? 1x then BR then again and BR again?

Blind Review LR

Hi guys! I know this has probably been asked many times before but I just want to know how you exactly go about BR for LR? I just took a practice section after not taking one in a long time and I got 6 wrong and skipped 2 which is making me feel a little down. LR has been pretty good for me and I have never really done BR but I think the time has come now to implement it so I can really be confident about LR. Thanks for all your advice in advance!

Hey if you record yourself doing an RC section how do you go about reviewing it afterwards? What’s your purpose and what are you specifically looking for. Thanks!

I record every section and make a spread sheet to see how much I’m spending per passage/question. :)

Thanks for answering! So for RC you write down how long you spent on each question individually and on the passage as a whole?

need help!

Hey guys! This is my first time posting here I've been watching the game videos for awhile now but just signed up for the course. So happy I did! This community is amazing! So have few questions. 1. I've been studying on and off now for good few months now and I'm planning on taking December my first diagnostic I got a 149 and since then my top score has been a 157 that was about 2-3 months ago. When I do untimed LR I usually 1-2 wrong timed like 4-6 . My LG is where i was lacking a lot been drilling that a lot and definitely getting better (especially bec of the videos) and my RC untimed usually pretty good but timed I'm in trouble. So my question is how should I go about studying the next month and a half. And specifically how should I be studying for the LG and also how does the BR work for the LG. Thanks so much!!

As @ said, you should flight mode your phone and check your hard drive space (35 mins on 1080p on my iPhone 6 = 4GB)!

@ said:

I recommend this phone stand. Make sure you have at least 3gb of space on your phone and that your phone is in airplane mode.

thanks! and when you guys record do you record the whole test or just specific sections?

Devices for self recording

Hey! A lot of people mention the gains they had from recording themelves taking a PT. I'm just curious what device people use to do that? I have an Iphone 6s so what would be good to use with that to record myself? Thanks!

why isn't B true? The argument starts off saying "predates historical records" and then later the argument says "inferred from occasions in history". To me, it seemed like it was contradictory, one the one hand we are saying that there are no historical records and then we seemingly bring them in?

Why do keep your old games?

Hey! I’m starting to foolproof games now and I was wondering if and why it’s necessary to keep your old game papers and setups as opposed to just the data? Do you ever go back and look at ur game setups ? Thanks!

There is still room for improvement since you are missing between 2-5 questions. I think you should definitely foolproof entire sections rather than specifically focusing on 4-5 star games. I am not saying that you should't do the 4-5 star games at all, what I mean is that if a 4-5 star game is in a particular section, then you should do all the games from that PT. The less challenging games still offer great practice and you may even pick up new inferences with them.

Thanks for the response! I should clarify what I meant. I was thinking of making my own games section consisting of 2 4 star games and 2 5 star games and using those for the foolproof method.

Foolproof 1-35 or foolproof 4-5 star games

Hi! Need some advice what you think would be better? I’ve been studying for some time now so I’m not new to games and for the most part my games section score is usually between -2 and -5. I’m starting studying again now for Feb so I would like to set up a game plan. Thanks all!
