I'm retaking this test tomorrow. Just out of curiosity, is anyone else here retaking tomorrow?
@ The LG with the library game was experimental? I didn't watch that Powerscore podcast. And I hate it here, too.
I wrote in November and I'm also retaking it in January. My score was okay, but I know it could be better. I'm trying to do 1-2 PTs a week. If I'm fatigued, I'll do 1-2 sections of a PT a day just so I don't burn out. What sections do you have issues with? I need to work on timing in LG, and read some LR questions more carefully. I know we can do this if we just focus.
Did any of your RCs have a passage about astronomy and planetary cores? That was my last RC passage. I didn't even have the time to read it through completely. I relied on topic sentences to get the gist of the article.
@ I had the same LGs as you did in your second LG section (I only had 1 LG with 2 LRs). The game about the market was doable, but kinda long-winded. The last game with the two libraries was my last game and the hardest. My family got loud when I was working on it, and I lost concentration so I just guessed on the last 3 questions for that game.
The test was a mess for me. I was supposed to start at 5:40 PM, but I didn't start the exam until 6:35. I kept having connection issues where, for whatever reason, the internet tab with the LSAT would switch over to a different proctorU tab without my input and give me an "unstable connection" warning. Then I'd have to repeatedly switch back to the tab with the LSAT on it. It was very irritating to have to deal with this. I'd be reading a stimulus, and then the screen would switch on its own, distracting me. I also think I messed up RC since I started running out of time on the hardest passage. My family got a bit too loud during my section with LG and then I started to guess for the last 3 or 4 LG questions. Not to mention that I completely disconnected at one point during LG (my time got paused, though). I had two LRs.
Did anyone else have multiple proctors? I got 4 proctors in total on test day tonight. It probably had to do with my connection issues.
I'm nervous for Sunday.
I noticed that D didn't have both elements, but didn't realize that the stimulus had the same issue so I picked C. Figuring something like this out on the actual test day would be really hard.
I picked A, but switched to B in BR. The question wasn't too bad, but the stimulus felt long-winded. Maybe it's just the technical talk regarding pollination.
I picked E, but switched to A on BR. I think that E was tempting to me at first because the first sentence does say that PE should teach people to live active lifestyles. Teaching kids about the dangers of a sedentary life seemed in line with that, but A became the better answer since there's a focus on competition in PE, and E never mentions PE specifically, only that children should be taught about the dangers of sedentarism in general.
I understand why it is A, but C got me. It was so tempting.
I never thought to read passage A, answer questions based on A as best as I can, and then read passage B to finish the questions. Maybe that will work better for me in the future.
When you guys do LR and RC, do you use your scrap paper to convert the stimulus into logic and summarize each paragraph? Since the LSAT is online, I can't really write on the margins like JY does in his videos. I'm also scoring in the 160s, but I want to get into the higher 165+ range.
I got a 160 and I'm kinda disappointed, too. I think I'm gonna retake in January.
Hi. I got a 160 on the November 2021 LSAT. I'm not satisfied with this score, but I'd like to see how well I did on each section so that I can tell which sections need the most improvement for January. Where can you check for this?
For LR, I've been getting around -9. I definitely need to review logic. When you do LR, do you translate the sentences into logic on a sheet of paper or in your head? I don't write anything down during the LR section, and I'm starting to think that I should spend time translating things on the page for harder questions. @
