I got this question right but I ruled out answer A for a different reason. I ruled out A because I took the first sentence " Antarctica has generally been thought " and the supporting evidence about the sediments found as evidence that people no longer generally believe that Antarctica has been covered by ice for the past 14 million years. Did I make too big of an assumption in doing so?

What is your logical reasoning strategy?

I've noticed that all of my incorrect answers can usually be found in the range of 13-19. Do the questions get harder around this range or is it just me? I was thinking of speeding through the first ten questions to have more time to tackle the ones in the range mentioned above. Any thoughts?

I feel like a lot of my exhaustion comes from being so close to my goal score. It sometimes feels like I'm in a plateau I guess. It's very frustrating

Just a simple question. I feel like I could use a break but I feel incredibly guilty if I do because my scores are not where I want them to be and I'm a June test taker. I feel like I'd be wasting time but this test makes me feel like I have a thousand pounds of stress on my back some days.

I have trouble with these questions too. They are very hard for me. If you do enough of them they get a bit easier.

Glad I'm not the only one. It was by far the hardest test I've seen

My last test I only got two wrong on reading comp. thank you all. If I can continue to do that and stop picking extremely dumb answers on LR I'll be ok. I'm within 3 points of my 160 goal score

Thank you all a lot. I've been drilling reading comp for the past two days and before I read each passage I say to myself ( let's learn something fun and new) it helps a lot tricking my mind

It is very hard to talk to friends or family about this test. I think only those who are actually preparing or the test can understand how hard it is and how emotionally draining it can be so I thank you all for understanding. I have decided to postpone taking the LSAT in June and taking the September/October. This time I will prep with a 7sage tutor, (maybe he or she can identify mistakes that I don't see) and read more as reading comp is my worst enemy. There were a lot of you who have messaged me when you could've used that time to study. I just want to say I really appreciate you all

I find that I really really hate humanities passages ( and do poorly on them) and sometimes law passages but really really enjoy science passages. What do you guys do to remain focused on passage types that un interest you or just a boring passage in general? Is their anything I can read to improve my humanities section. Seems like with humanities I seem to have to re-read sentences a lot.

I've found that when going over the test especially in the LR section. The answers that I picked that were wrong were so dumb and it's easy for me to spot the correct answer. I think maybe racing the clock makes me pick bone head answers or makes me not read as clearly.

Yes. One game he said was rare most of the time it feels like when the pressure is on and I can't easily see the setup I crack

Most of the time when I don't understand a game I completely don't understand how to diagram the game.

So far my timed practice test are not up to my expectations. I'm reviewing my tests and maintaining a positive attitude but I just want to hit my target score of a 160 soon, i feel like it would help my confidence a lot. My highest has been a 157 but my other 3 tests are all in the low 150 range. Is their something I'm doing wrong? Is there anything I could do to improve things? It seems like so far I get a test where I completely don't understand one LG game or or I run out of time on my last reading comp passage. Today on prep test 40 both occurred resulting in a 151 good grief! ( Charlie Brown voice). I'm preparing for the June test

So is question E wrong because it doesn't take into account ( other factors) such as earths gravity compared to the gravity on Mars?

Practice test

Should my practice test scores steadily rise? So far it has increased since my first test than went down a little.

I guess I've done everything but tutoring from you guys. I've sent you a message for tutoring and my areas of weakness. I guess I'll pull out of the June lsat as well

Reading on a consistent basis I'd say no if it's anything not lsat related. What do you mean by work out the pressure?

I absolutely can not have a consistent improvement in practice text my scores are up and down my best was a 161 after a hiatus of drilling all of the question types that gave me trouble. I honestly don't know how some people have the mental endurance to do that. I honestly feel like it hurts me rather than helps me. I've been studying for this tests since god knows how long maybe since before last June when I bombed that. And I just feel my life has bed. Revolving around this test since thsn and it's just been a depressing expensive emotional roll a coaster that I'm ready to get off of.

Confirm action

Are you sure?
