I got brutalized by this passage. I would say #help but I am unsure where to start. Yolo

Re: Q22, what made me incorrectly choose B was the portion after the "-" : Eltis attributing this to (the importance of a strong British labour force). Can anyone help here? #help

Couldn't even focus on the answer choices here, post-stimulus read, bruh. So, got it wrong. My heart strings were being tugged. Who could withhold treats from a good pupper?

Foolproofing really is the gold standard. Your intuition of when/how to split games, or move forward without splitting, needs time to develop, and the only way to get there is just doing as many games as you can. It's just straight hard work and exposure to multiple games. Best of luck to you.

My lack-of-attention-to-detail brain read societies as 'species' and used that to choose B. Thought it was the weirdest argument in the entire world and that a conclusion couldn't be made for, say, lizards, based on university students' dating success. Ok bruh

@ wuz hannin fam. Just out here grinding. LSAT got me dissecting my girl's arguments (not a good idea) and critically analyzing my mom's texts to me via memory method. I be dreaming about drackedary and opposable thumbs.

#help I understand why (E) is correct - but, for (A), are we not able to classify the (planimetric = mastery) view of to the proponent as objectionable? Can't this be called an "other objectionable view"?

I couldn't immediately dismiss A for this reason.

There's a similar approach mentioned by BurtReynolds on the recent 7Sage podcast (I listen to these on SoundCloud): Preview games 1 and 2, size them up and take on the easier one first to build confidence, and then do the same for games 3 and 4 - usually doing 3 first as there's a higher likelihood of game 4 having some quirks. Seems as though the confidence you can get by hitting the easier games first outweighs any loss of time from having to flip through a bit.

Check it out, and good luck in your studies!

Aside from the 1-star difficulty that this passage is ascribed, did anyone else find this passage to be hard? I went -1 with a miss on Q5 (same issue as other posters have described, basically) but this passage ate up so much of my time.

#help for question 10, where is the support specifically that these works of Shakespeare etc. have been traditionally seen as representing the high culture of Renaissance England? I understand that Binns asserts that this is not the case, but is it just then implied that this is how they have been traditionally characterized?

Blind Review Habits

I attended a webinar tonight on diagnosing issues with the 7Sage analytics tool / score report. In the session's Q&A piece, there was a note made on blind review by a moderator - and specifically, blind reviewing with a timing component (an example was made for when you are blind reviewing RC - not taking as much time as you want reading the passage, looking up words, and so on, as that doesn't help you perform better once you're back into another PT with the clock ticking).

This got me to thinking about how I should be blind reviewing. Should my goal of blind review to not do a complete deep dive into passage/question intricacies, by factoring in some sort of a time component? Should I simply blind review less in order to see more cumulative LSAT material that I otherwise wouldn't?

It may sound excessive (I am not sure if it is), but fully reviewing a PT can take me in excess of 7-9 hours... Wonder if I should be allocating that time to new material instead.

Or, more generally, can anyone point me to some effective blind review habits that I can factor into my studies?

Thanks very much!

4-5 PTs in a week is quite a lot.

While your mileage may vary (getting acquainted to the test with that method could help you), blind review/reviewing the results of your exam should take at least a day or two in my opinion.

If you aren't spending enough time in review, you're 1. burning through fresh testing material that you could find yourself needing down the road, and 2. not diving deep enough into review - which is where I'd argue most of your progress is made.

Good luck with your studies!
