You're never going to get as many right timed vs. untimed. Keep blind reviewing to find patterns and to close the gap between actual vs br score.
I mean if you can't do the question without writing it go for it. I personally wouldn't.
Put the work in and your scores will reflect. No shortcuts.
Use a chart for grouping games when you can reuse the items that can be placed in groups. For example, if there are 3 shirts (this represents groups) and they can be made up of different colors (Y, G, B ). You would use a chart here.

42 days. I did as Alex recommends, one full new game section a day. I also redid that game section the same day after watching the explanation video, did it again the next day, and did it one last time 1 week after the first take.
It's 42 days because it took a week to finish with the 35th game section which I started on day 35.
I'd build in a rest day each week if I had to do it again though.
I also took and blind reviewed PTs during this time, but didn't do any LR or RC prep.
It felt like plenty of work so I wouldn't push it much harder especially if you still are studying for other sections.
Good luck!
Are you close to -0 on sections now?

True, but an important caveat: A sufficient assumption can address the gap by overshooting the mark, that is, it assumes more than what is need to cover the gap. Kinda like killing a bug with a nuclear bomb.
Thanks man!
I like to think of it this way. If you have a high gpa in your last two years, obviously that means you're a capable student. I think it is worth mentioning that you got your shit together, changed your study habits, and became a successful student.
Just want to throw out there what I think constitutes sufficient assumption questions. Sorry if this doesn't belong here but I like to just write it out.
Sufficient assumption questions: How can we take the premises we are given and make them lead to the conclusion we are given. Obviously there is a gap, the sufficient assumption + the premises will then help lead to the conclusion.

Great work! and thanks for sharing. LG is my worst section and I am on it now in the CC ... Did you start fool proofing during the CC or did you want until you were done. I was going to foolproof now but I realized I want to fool proof each and every game so should probably finish the CC first then work on honing the LG section through fool proofing. How did you tackle it?
Just do the CC games first. That is a lot of games.
Hi guys, I havent gone through the LR curriculum in over a year. I am wondering which lessons cover some, most, few statements, and LR diagramming. I think MBT questions and SA had some?
#1 thing for me in strengthening questions is: strengthen according the relationship that exists between the premise and conclusion, other questions may strengthen but not in the way we want. Which answers makes the relationship between the premise and conclusion stronger? Also why is my font so big
**edit
Im trying to find out how hard Section 1 of PT 58 was. For me it wasn't really hard, but I missed a couple more than I would like.
Thats not an LSAT problem. Thats a problem with society. Also for the vast majority of test takers, it doesn't take a year to study, that is just a select few test-takers.

However, it is sufficient to weed out those who don't have the skills.
It also weeds out those who don't have the money and/or time to spend a year or more studying for this test. I have been more fortunate than some because my job offers flexibility, but less fortunate than other students who don't have to work because their parents support them during school and during their LSAT studies.
Its skipping my mind right now, as I studied it before. But, in grouping games (not in/out) why do we use A -> ~B instead of A (--)~B for rules like A can't be added to the same class as B
However, it is sufficient to weed out those who don't have the skills.

for double layered sequencing game just make 2 lines and 1 line will be for the first set of entities, the 2nd line will be for the other entities.
such as if you're given this:
4 friends: A B C and D
4 colors: Green, Red, Yellow, White
you will be given rules about them and on line 1 you can put the 4 friends, that will be their line. the 2nd line will be for the colors that go with each friend (which you will associated them based on rules/inferences)
But yeah, knowing a game that is giving you trouble would be helpful!
For example PT 66 section 3 game 4. That throws me off.
Hi guys, Im having trouble setting up this type of game. Not sure where to put what elements, what the elements are and what the base is. Does anyone have any tips? Would reading the advanced linear games in PS help with the set up? Im good once I get to the set up.
Focus on the other sections. You can have one weak section, not a big deal.
