How should I be reading the target times for RC?
Final bits of crunch prep before the Feb 8th LSAT, and I'm struggling most with worrying about time. I noticed that RC Drills have both a Target Time Goal for the passage AND the questions, so how should I be interpreting the time? Is the target time that's listed under the passage specifically for the passage? and separate from the target times of the questions?
Say, for example, my elapsed time for a passage was 3:33 but the target time is 8:53. That target time of 8:53, does that include the questions for the section as well? or is that solely for the passage itself and I should be taking that and adding the additional target times from the questions to gauge the overall target time for a RC section.
Fuck this question in particular!
Everything else in the section is cool though! I'm chill with everything else!
going to vomit if another different question type gets snuck into the very topic specific lesson of a completely different topic type
my brain gets so hardwired doing one question type all day that i dont even process the different question type because I'm so focused in on understanding what IM CURRENTLY TRYING TO LEARN
Drifted towards A automatically but picked C because i didn't understand why I drifted towards A....
le sigh.... we cringe on....
Had C but changed it to A because too many wrong questions back to back has absolutely ruined my confidence...
It's always down to two questions, and then on the blind review I overthink everything....
It's ALWAYS down to two answers (B and E), and I keep picking the wrong one simply because I don't understand the wording. B rubbed me the wrong way simply because I didn't understand the wording of it.
Had B first and under time but changed it to D and went over time because all my confidence is shot from the last couple of lessons....
it's so over for me....
15 questions straight of SA and the only reason I got this wrong was because i didn't read that it wasn't a SA question!
Stupid!
Right as I feel like I'm starting to get it, back-to-back two wrong
is it over for me?
Only reason I didn't get this question right was because I didn't understand the phrase "But Not Otherwise"
It's so over......
Getting this right before checking the answers and watching the video gives me some hope for when I go back to drill Strengthen/Weaken Questions
