Most people advise against changing your strategies too close to your test
I would proceed by asking which question you are asking about. Once I've figured that out I would then try to explain it to you
I feel like double stacking your most feared section consistently should be a priority for practice tests, but that just sounds so awful
@efdude555751 Seq w/ twist is my best game type now (Better than pure sequencing for some reason lol). Getting that last game from PT24 fool-proofed was a huge cornerstone for me, it changed my perception of double layer sequencing games as a whole. Hope it can do the same for you.

this was the precise problem set where my confidence was shattered. I literally can't even foolproof some of them. Or maybe I can't bring myself to. Fine distinction. lol.
I've done this set 13 times so it definitely took a while to click lol
Many think that the PT's in the 80's are most representative of the current tests, which I completely agree with. I used tests from 1-40 as foundational work then everything from 40-May '20 I have been using for PT'ing. Best advice I have, don't burn through the 80's too fast and don't think you have to take PT's in a linear order. As for difficulty, there's a ton you can take away from older tests, for example PT's 1-10 are known to be the most difficult logic games sections and are great for mastering miscellaneous games.

Hey @renebermudez226 which PT is this?
PT 20 S3 G4 and PT 24 S3 G4. Second game is my favorite of the two.
"Sequencing Game Wa Twist Double Problem Set 3" I think is one of the holy grail problem sets that dramatically improved the way I view hard sequencing games. Highly recommend fool proofing it if you haven't.

You have no reason to be down on yourself. My grandpa always used to tell me PMP, practice makes perfect, advice that fits perfectly into this section. Find enjoyment in the practice and you will succeed in logic games.

Take some unused LR sections and drill 1-10/1-15 with at or under a minute per question. I'm telling you it's magic.
Can you expand on that a little?
Definitely, they're called confidence drills. You just take any LR section and run through as many questions as you want limiting yourself to a minute or less for each. I started off focusing on 1-10 at or under 10 minutes and I just hit my personal best of -1 from 1-15 on PT84. I think they could help you out significantly. PM me if you need more info.

So two of my best LR question types are MSS/MBT and I'm pretty sound with the other RC inference questions but I am getting absolutely demolished by these (29% accuracy, by far my worst RC q-type). Anyone else have this problem and/or any tips?
Thank you for this. I was so caught up in the 2nd paragraph trying to figure out why C was wrong and had completely overlooked "appears" in the question stem. A similar problem I had with the first passage of this section on Q7, failing to differentiate between composing and releasing, leading me to the wrong answer choice (A). My takeaway? Be as detail-oriented as possible with Recognition questions, even with the question stem.
I think you just over complicated eliminating B. The answer choice needs to match the group leaders principles two qualities 1. take the steps to comply 2. be met with government inaction.
B - The principle states that there needs to be inaction but says the zoning board clearly made an action to restrict the construction of the bowling alley, contradicting the first part of the principle.
For this to be a proper contrapositive she would need to not be acting in good faith as well to match the contraposed logic structure. Bowling alley/secret fight club maybe instead of positive recreational impact.
Good faith -> Met with Inaction -> Do it
Con: Do it -> Met with Inaction -> Good Faith
E - No legal action taken against the physician = inaction. Met all the requirements to practice = good faith. Meets both requirements so this is a 100% match.
Good faith -> Met with Inaction -> Did it
Definitely a strange and wordy early LR question
I understand the reasoning for D but can't shake off E, never even considered B. How is claiming the estimate is a "gross exaggeration" not an attack on its precision? #help
Definitely do it. The best way to get better at interviews is by doing more interviews in my opinion. Your numbers are elite numbers so you shouldn't be doubting yourself. Just be genuine, pump up your confidence, and you'll be perfect. Remember, it's just a conversation. Good luck!
I usually start explaining groups 1 and 2 of conditional logic indicators. After you've completely lost them you get to say something like "yeah, that's one of the simple concepts"
Would like to hear some of your approaches to navigating through more difficult logic games. The thing I struggle with the most is knowing the right time to move on from game-board setup to the first question. I find that I'll consistently move on too early to avoid the feeling of lost time and knowing that there's probably an acceptable situation question first sometimes makes me want to move onto the questions prematurely. So basically what I'm wondering if you're stumped by a game should you spend the more of your time on a detailed setup or keep pace and move through the questions for potential inferences.
I can confidently say you'll barely have any trouble, just write an effective addendum. A vast majority of applications will exclude parking/driving infractions unless they directly resulted in a misdemeanor or felony charge. As for the single misdemeanor, I heard a story about a successful applicant with 6 and it seems pretty common that felonies are what heavily impact decisions. The most important thing to consider is that it will slightly set you back from other students with the same numbers so make sure your application is the best you can do. Disclose the misdemeanor in every application as well, there have been attorneys kicked from the bar because they withheld infractions during their law school application process.
Thanks! Almost forgot what LSAC meant. Lowlives Stealing All my Cash
LSAC has received my college transcripts and the academic summary report currently says "Transcript analysis data not on file". Do I need to purchase CAS before I can see my LSAC gpa?
I finished every section early when I took in August which was terrible because I've never done that before. Bombed the hell out of it and cancelled. I think you're in a good spot because when you were crunched for time you didn't mindlessly rush. When I was in that same position as you I just blacked out and started clicking like a psychopath lol.
I scored higher on the November test than any PT I've taken simply by not giving a fuck on test day. Look at your break as a refresh, not a setback
