@ Congrats! you never gave up. ... and @ keep practicing and take it when your PTs reflect your desired score. It will all work out. Just be patient.
Just to share the way I approached this Q: I first had to decide if was going to use "extinct and not extinct" or "survive and not survive." I usually see like terms better if I commit to one synonym. So to make it easy on my brain, I used "survive and not survive."
Remember "Without" is negate sufficient; you will also see IF (sufficient) in this passage.
CP = Contrapositive
Sentence 1: /Intervention -->/Survive
Sentence 1 CP: Survive --> Intervention
Sentence 2: Forest Habitat Preserved -->Survive
Sentence 2 CP /Survive -->/Forest Habitat Preserved
Let's chain up the like terms:
Inference 1: /Intervention -->/Survive -->/Forest Habitat Preserved
Contrapositive: Forest Habitat Preserved --> Survive -->Intervention
Answer Choice E comes from the line marked Inference 1: /Intervention -->/Forest Habitat Preserved
Hope this helps.
A 14-point increase is a big deal. And besides, you never gave up. That's admirable.
I agree with @ ... I took it before my actual test. Why? I was told that it will calm the test jitters. And they were right. The little taste was good for my nerves.
Congrats, Brandon. You did it!!
I usually make my own recordings on my phone. I have recordings of how to negate conditional statements, for example, "all dogs have four legs." (answer: some dogs do not have four legs or at least one dog doesn't have four legs). I record the flaws (examples and explanations). These are some of the things you could listen to on your commute.
Call 1-800-967-1139 ... I think scheduling for remote opens at 4 p.m. Eastern Time today. ... Remember to have your Eligibility ID ready. If you don't have it, it can be found if you go to your LSAC account.
Note the cause-effect relationship in these statements; how should you approach it? Like a parallel reasoning question. In the stimulus, there is a financial incentive, which leads to a behavior that results in more overall spending. You are looking for an answer choice with an incentive that leads to something bad. (C) does that even though it goes the opposite way (lower profits). (D) is wrong off the bat because there is no incentive.
@.tennyson thank you for your response. The issue has since been resolved; had the wrong email address. All good!!
I am trying to register "in advance" but it won't let me.
Congrats! You're a great story. I wish you nothing but sucess in your next chapter.
This is something to celebrate! It's encouraging.
Since Nov will likely give the best reflection of your score, take the Nov test. If you were to take Oct and got a significantly lower score than Nov, how would you explain the one-month increase. You also wouldn't want to give a hint re accommodation to the admissions folks. So take it when you can do your best.
Love your videos, Kevin! I find them helpful. ... Welcome to 7Sage!
Don't give up. It's your dream to do this, and you should never put a deadline on a dream. So keep at it; find a study buddy, study group or whatever you have to do, but don't give up.
@ I meant to say start with a live class. That's what I did.
@ I can relate. I am returning from a hiatus too. I would suggest starting with an online class. You'll have that feeling of togetherness, and learning/reviewing together is easier. This is how I eased my way back into the swing of things. Don't think about the setback. Don't think about where you should have/could have been in your studies. This is the hand you've been dealt, and all you can do at this point is work with your situation. Be patient and gentle with yourself. It will all work out.
The notes in the scratch paper area won't show in the essay. If you made notes atop the essay page, then I would reach out to LSAC and let them advise you on your options.
Congratulations! You worked your tailed off, and got the score you deserve. All the best the rest of the way.
@ Congrats! That's a competitive score. Good luck with law school.
