@abigailmmarshall771 It's because I want to reach my score potential.

Thank you all!

Can someone explain in another way why 10 (C) is incorrect?

I think I'm hung up on the fact that Passage B says, "behavior whose neurological basis essentially constitutes the capacity to make and enjoy music" (59-61).

My post hoc explanation for why (C) is wrong is that, in fact, Passage A never connects music to neurological research, and, maintaining JY's explanation, Passage B does not either. Passage A talks about music processing and neurology. Passage B talks about the capacity to make and enjoy music and neurology.

I was assuming that both fall under music generally.

Alternatively, maybe it's because I'm confusing "neurological basis" with "neurological research", which is (C). The incorrect assumption I may be making is that having some evidence for a neurological basis of something implies that neurological research was conducted.

I'm just so lost. Can't wrap my head around this...

Oh, hm. I chose B because the conference was on nonprofit management and the argument didn't make clear whether the computer experts' statement applied to both non-profit and for-profit hospitals.

It's not the right path to the answer though. The core of the vulnerability is that the executive has taken the word of experts in a particular discipline not entirely relevant to hospital management and has thrust it up as uncontested without having indicated that they had consulted any other kinds of experts or resources.

@974 @msami1010493 Thank you for the helpful advice.

I think my errors tend to be made in LR. I will try bubbling after one page instead of two.

I scored more than 5 points below the average of my 3 recent PT scores, so I feel your frustration.

@jessicakoh93812 For me, doing the same game over and over hampered my game recognition somewhat.

Well, in the beginning, I did a game until I perfected it. But now I do sections until I've perfected them. And then double-sections until I've perfected that. And sometimes I shuffle the games and do it that way.

I think starting out, when you're just learning to recognize the game type, you should just work on perfecting a single game.

I'm pretty sure the reason why the videos aren't downloadable is because your 7Sage subscription expires. You can't really enforce expiration if you can download videos.

@johnmcc19710 Is there a deadline to request hand-grading?

@terrye2770 1 month of hours upon hours upon hours of logic games. I'm not exaggerating: wake up, print some logic games, do them over and over and over again. Stop for some food. Do more logic games. Go to bed. The next day, do all of the logic games that you did yesterday to make sure you can still do them. And then get some new logic games and repeat the process. This is basically 7Sage's FPM.

I asked to make sure I could have two watches (my watch broke during a PT so I wanted to have a backup) even though I knew I could, but I wanted to put it in the proctors' awareness so I wouldn't run into trouble during the exam, but another proctor pointed at my second watch, rather angry, while I was doing the LG section, and started saying "You--" but then something must have clicked because she said "sorry" and moved on.

Wtf.

I made a Scantron error as well, but I somewhat expected it as I make a Scantron error almost every practice test. I ended up 1 question short, and realized that I double-bubbled somewhere in the section so I had to erase and refill entire blocks. I don't know if the erasures were effective but I really, really hope this isn't my downfall.

@974 I have a question relevant to that: Is it a "kosher" strategy to take an official test solely as practice for the "real" round? I've always read that the LSAT should be a one done deal and retake only if absolutely necessary.

My October test wasn't a practice round (not intentionally, anyway), but because of all the surprising things I learned from taking an official test, I see the value of taking an official test solely to prepare for a retake... What do you think?

@grantnicar6 One about native americans?

Yes! I'm not sure how specific I can get... Are we just not allowed to discuss questions or is there a higher specificity limitation? Like can I say what kind of Native Americans and what the specific topic of the passage was?

@kyeretsian807 Had one with the Anderson family

Me too. I had only the real LRs.

@wongawt196.awt Did the real LG have the museum question, or the shift work question?

Shift work... although I think the shifts were at a museum...

Oh thank god. I'm pretty sure I did well on the Beethoven reading section (I had an experimental reading with... I can't even remember, wow... yeah it is just gone from my mind)

I really wish I could help you @nathanfabiano666 but I think the stress of the test has destroyed my memory. I can't even remember 1 LR question.

bump

Wait, are we allowed to discuss which sections we had to collectively figure out which one was the experimental?
