Hi guys!
Can anyone offer some advice on how to actually get to the fourth passage on time. I always only finish 3 of the passages.
I try my best to get through all the passage and questions fast enough tot get to the fourth but it never happens.
Any advice on how I could drill RC to get better?
Thank you.

Thank you for the suggestions!
What you said about Logic Games is something I'm really going to try to do. I always just make my game board, write down the rules and dive into the questions without spending too much time thinking about more things I can infer or splitting up the gameboard. I think Im just afraid ill lose precious time that I could be answering questions and hope that i'll infer those things along the way. But so far that hasn't been working out very well for me so I know Im screwing up somewhere so I will do that. And another thing you mentioned about drawing and erasing on the master gameboard is something I do quite often because I don't want to waste time redrawing. That's something I just need to get into the habit of doing. I think i really just need to create better habits with LG because all those things are really slowing me down..
As far as RC goes I do underline main points and it hasn't helped me very much as I spend too much time on the questions anyhow. But I will try to do what you suggest and try to spend more time on the passage upfront and see if it helps me get through the questions faster.
Thank you very much for the suggestions once again. They were helpful.
Hi, first time poster long time lurker here..
I just wrote my LSAT a few days ago after studying on and off for over a year.
I'm certain I did not do well though because of messing up pretty majorly on the LG and RC section.
I think I had some anxiety and completely froze up when it came to the Logic Games section and spent way too much time overanalyzing the first two games and was only able to finish 2 1/2 of the games so that left me guessing the rest of the questions and the last game. I was really bummed about this because the games themselves did not seem like they were too difficult but the pressure just really got to me and I had to re-read things over and over and just psyched myself out.
How can I get more confident and faster at the LG games? I've printed out all the games that JY has talked about in the curriculum and have been redoing them but if I encounter something new I always freeze.
RC was also a struggle for me and I only got through 3/4 passages and completely guessed on the fourth passage. The timing just really screws me over where I only get through 3 of the 4 passages even when doing my practice tests. Can someone please provide me with some advice on how I can get through all 4 passages?
I'm pretty certain at this point I will cancel my score because I don't want to screw myself in case I get a really low score. I would like to retake and do the December LSAT after working on these weaknesses. I only have a few months left so I want to make good use of my time.
Any insight would be appreciated!
Ugh! The second LG was so bad I was hoping it was experimental but I guess it wasn't :( cuz I bombed that section I only got through the first two games and couldn't figure out the last two for the life of me. Not sure what to do now
