Congratulations! I do have one question, how did you get better at LR? Any tips you recommend?

I am so interested!

Hi! So, my method of study is going through the CC and just practicing and doing drills for each question type and trying to make sure I could explain the reasoning out loud to someone why each answer choice is wrong and why each one is right. For context, I am still going through the CC and have seen improvement, even if it is slow but steady. So, in short, just practice practice practice and I in the beginning of my studies I also stressed quantity of hours spent over quality. Make sure you are spending enough time on each subject (question type, etc) and using everything to your advantage. Best of luck on your studies!

SAME I did not even realize until watching the video

Omg congratulations!!! Sending you the absolute best for your test Friday!

Hi! I recently completed my first confidence drill and it was for LR, but I definitely will try it for RC! Reading your comment makes me feel better that someone else was in the same boat as me and was able to get out of that rut. Have a great rest of your day!

Hi! I feel like if you know you can get your goal score to get into your schools, then I would say to take the LSAT again. However, if your score is on the low side of the schools you want then I recommend taking more time to study. I do understand the feeling of being behind as I am almost done my gap year studying. It is better to get the highest score you can to get more scholarship opportunities and just more of a chance of getting into the schools you want. This is just my advice. Hope it helps and am wishing you the best!

Hi! I understand this struggle too. Although I am getting out of it myself, what I did was to focus on one question type I know I am having trouble on and focus on that. I find focusing and trying to employ the strategies methods over and over again helps me even if it means I understand why one answer choice is wrong where I would not have seen that before. In terms of logic games, I just do the foolproof message and try to explain in my head why this world could work, etc. Hopefully this helps! Best luck on your studies.

I would love to join the group!

I am going to get at least a 157 on my April LSAT!!!

Hi! This is my understanding why C is wrong. So, we know that the reason that the reporters get paid less is because of the valuable training that will make up for the loss of money. So, in my head, I want something to attack / undermine why valuable training is worth making less. In regards to the assumption you made, I thought the same but realized it seemed to far fetch to me and ignoring that fact, C is just completely irrelevant to the argument.

For B, if it were true that most of the reporters have worked there for ten years, then it is reasonable to make the jump that they don't receive any valuable training so their loss of money is no longer justified, thus weakening the argument,

Not sure if this helps but it was just my take on the problem because I had it down to B and C and picked B as my final answer. Wish you luck on your studies!

This answer makes more since than the video imo. Thank you so much! I made the same mistake

That was exactly my reasoning for eliminating that answer.

Thank you!! It's ironic you suggested it I've been using the book over the last few days and trying to practice the diagramming drills. I do miss some things like noting all not laws that emerge from a rule etc... I just feel like my diagram has to be perfect to answer the questions cause one mistake can cause incorrect answers.

When I was doing the diagramming drills I did miss a couple not laws so I understand the struggle :(

I got it down to B and E and ultimately chose B, because I thought just because the grandson expressed his desire to own a farm that it didn't mean that he expressed it to her and did not want to make that assumption so I eliminated E. How do I know when to not make the jump or to make the jump?

Logic games is my worst section ... I am in the beginning learning stages and I am struggling with diagraming, which I know is an important first steps Any tips? I am struggling with diagramming in the best way and how to diagram for new rules.

I definitely recommend making sure you understand conditional logic and practice making rule diagrams. I have the Powerscore Logic Games Bible and it provides some drills specifically for diagramming rules because it is so so important, so if you have the resources and you have reviewed the logic section on 7sage, then I would recommend getting it! But yeah, knowing conditional logic and knowing your sufficient / necessary condition keywords really helped me better and accurately diagram the rules (though I will admit sometimes I do make mistakes)

I will keep it short, It is not only about practicing more but it is also understanding your puzzle pieces and how they come together. When your mind can understand how restricted some pieces are the faster you'll get an understanding.

Okay! I will keep that in mind as I progress in my studies!
