Ok you guys I figured as much was just a little nervous and overthinking but the comments have alleviated my anxiety a bit (3(/p)

Understood this so much better once J.Y drew out the Koch curve! Somehow I only got two wrong on this passage even though I was completely confused, and reading comp used to be my worst section. Thanks 7Sage you’ve helped so much

I HATE this question. I feel like b makes an assumption that creative stories are better but we were never told what criteria the stories were gonna be judged on. Common sense tells you that creative stories are better but were specifically told NOT to use real world knowledge like that on the LSAT. It’s annoying that for some questions it’s wrong to choose answers using real world knowledge but on other questions like this it’s okay. Where is the line drawn because it’s not clear at all for this test. Also, I feel like A is stronger because it talks about the level of quality overall and not just one aspect of the work like b does, only talking about it’s creativity. When was creativity ever a factor. What if people don’t want a creative story? What if they just want a traditional, comforting, cute story? Why does it have to be CREATIVE to be good ? #rant

Good explanation for 26 thank you I needed that I understand weakening better now

My same problem I keep scoring in 156-low 160s it’s all over that range n I take the test in a week...I want it to be consistent in the low 160s.

I’ve noticed that reading comp kills my score, I get at least 8 wrong per section :/ don’t know what else I can do at this point.

What I’ve been doing is just simulating the lsat flex at this point as often as possible and going over what I get wrong. Paying a lot of attention to traps that I end up falling for or am attracted to and building my confidence.

If anyone has tips I would really like to hear them as well :(

This is gonna sound weird but I’m so happy the flex is a thing mainly cus I drink so much coffee beforehand so if it’s really a problem I can pee my pants n no one will know (3 taking the lsat holding ur pee is a nightmare ;((/p)

I'm really enjoying hearing about everyone's experience with their personal statements and the different steps they took to get it started/finish it !! Thanks for all the wonderful responses (3(/p)

@ I really love this response. This is great advice. Thank you!!

What

Honestly I don’t even know what B is even saying I just got it from process of elimination

I’m sorry but the word quackery is so funny to me I couldn’t help but laugh like who says that lol

@ thank you for your thoughtful response/encouragement ! You’re absolutely right, I should just start typing at least to get the ball rolling. (3(/p)

@ thank you for your response !!

Man E isn’t fair because so what if the epidemic doesn’t last as long than it did in the past? We’re comparing the length of a virus from way back in the past to modern day when now we have more advances in technology and medicine and overall knowledge about sickness, the body, and hygiene. Also, so what if not all victims of the virus get hiccups? You can still have a virus/sickness without displaying all symptoms that come with it (hello, Covid). I understand you aren’t supposed to bring real world knowledge into the lsat but on some other questions JY even states in some instances it’s “reasonable” to make certain assumptions. The distinction has to be way more clear. This test is honestly bullshit

For some reason I thought the flaw could have been overlapping sets :(

None of the answers for 19 sounds right based on the passage in my opinion that questions annoying

Okay what don’t I get..I know I’m really bad at math but this is weird to me I only got it right off intuition. So imagine you have ten pin tipped and ten bladed and all the pin tipped are used for engraving as the stimulus says, but sometimes the bladed ones are used for engraving and sometimes not. Let’s pretend here all ten of the bladed ones are NOT used for engraving. If there’s 10 pin tipped & 10 bladed that’s equal amount of Tools used & not used for engraving...wth

Thank you so much for this explanation JY I think this cleared up a lot of confusion I didn’t even know I had for questions like this, the way you explained this really clicked bravo love u

@ omg same -.-

Religious institutions disregarding unethical behavior ?? Nooooo effing waaaay

I don’t like question 7 if ur an immigrant who came here legally or u have a green card u now represent the population so why should u have to account for the change just don’t get the point of doing that in the first place.

24 sucks

hard Time eliminating C I understand the crucial aspect but if a computer replaces a human doing a proof what other way is there to do the proof ? I don’t like saying “well you can use a computer and a calculator so since you’re using both you’re not relying crucially on computers” well a calculator is a type of computer..so you would still relying crucially on computers. Aside from a human or a type of computer doing a proof I don’t know any other options. I’m confused

I get why C is right but for A why is it wrong to assume that if the proportion of birds visiting feeders is much lower than usual that it was an unusual winter ? Because if they normally visit feeders much more due to weather conditions but now aren’t because that changed it’s not the usual phenomenon so to me seems like a unusual winter

Thanks for clearing up what qualify meant because that was what got me stuck on this question and it’s come up in other answers choices too and I just never got around to googling it
