18 was the hardest one for me just because it's so laughable that someone could shut down the internet. So I thought it had to be A or E because those implied that the internet was open, just restricted.
Crossed out C) because I thought it was the conclusion. Seemed too obvious I suppose
This was one of those “what the fuck how am I wrong... oooooooooh” questions that JY is so good at.

Hi! I am taking the October exam and just had the same issue after taking a PT yesterday. I am still at the score I was at a month ago, despite studying full-time and as effectively as I can. Reading this makes me a little happy that I am not the only one, and also more encouraged! All we can do is keep going and not give up. Good things (and scholarships ;) ) take time!!
I've seen other posts about people changing their scores by 20 points and it definitely takes longer than just three months. I could get a good score if I took the September test, but not the score that truly reflects who I am as a student. It may take me longer than most, but goddamnit if I'm not gonna get a 170 eventually.

What do you mean by full proof the logic games?
fool proofing logic games means doing the logic games 10-20 times until you have memorized every inference and can do the game with no mistakes and a minute under time

When you start taking more PTs, you will be exposed to far more questions than you have seen in the CC. Taking the PT isn't going to help you get better at the test, but the review work you put in before checking the score will help you improve.
If I were you I would make sure to foolproof LG (there are several fantastic guides on these forums) and drill LR and RC sections. Don't score the games or sections before reviewing them thoroughly untimed.
So do you mean just systematically going through the CC again and just skip all the explanations and focus on the problems JY gives us for LR, LG, and RC?
Thanks for the great advice, it's so easy to get frustrated but I'll pull out this cycle and continue grinding.
Hey guys and gals, I studied all summer for the Sept LSAT and my first two PTs afterwards I've only improved by 1 point. I'm feeling really discouraged and would like some advice on how to proceed. Thinking about waiting out this year and seeing if I can do better with more studying time under my belt.
Edit: Thanks for the advice, friends. It's so easy to throw up your hands and give up, but the only thing to do is keep working at it and until I understand the material.
I’m going on vacation soon and there will be a 2 1/2 hour plane ride so I was thinkin I’d get some LSAT studying done. Anyway to watch the videos without WiFi?
but isn't that just an assumption? nowhere in the stim does it mention anything like word choice or figurative language
#help wait isn't A) the contrafactual of the original argument?
i.e. Selfishly motivated --> Reliable
Reliable --> Selfishly Motivated
anyone know how the tests will be seen by admissions people? will this be scored less hard bc of the three sections?
