If you had a neuropsych evaluation and the psychiatrist knew what he/she was doing, you should be fine.

For part 1, FB --> ~SPW or FA is correct. It also makes sense. We know from the original conditional statement that if seeds are planted in the winter, the only way flowers can blossom is with fertilizer being applied. If there's no fertilizer and the seeds were planted in the winter, we can kiss the prospect of seeing flowers blossoming goodbye. The contrapositive tells us that flowers are blossoming, so what does this imply? Well, either the seeds were not planted in the winter (maybe they were planted in the spring, summer, or some other time when fertilizer is not needed and a different set of conditions are at play...) OR fertilizer was applied (in which case it would be possible for the seeds to have been planted in the winter), OR, perhaps both.

@ I suppose the diagram was a pretty one all things considered :)

I loved train lines game, although I think this is mostly just because I find it fun to draw things.

Does anyone have a list of "math" questions for the LR? I seem to be struggling. Thanks!

Do you mean % vs. quantity questions?

@.rizeq the four Indian LSATs released are ACTUAL 2009 LSAT—India, the ACTUAL 2010 LSAT—India, and the ACTUAL 2012 LSAT—India. You can find more information below.

These tests are a cakewalk in comparison to the real deal.

3, but I've identified 40 out of 52 real questions.

goodtreatz was real

Yeah but that list only contains only a fraction of the 52 real LR questions.

does anyone remember a question about goodtreatz and obesity? real of exp?

fear von Frisch

One of the schools I am applying to accepts February scores and I am pretty sure I can get in without retaking the LSAT. However, would it be a good idea to submit my application now and take the Feb administration in hopes that I can have some more leverage negotiating for scholarship?

On another note, this was my first LSAT. My diagnostic was a 143. A +21 improvement isn't bad. But all I can think about this freakin mistake.

@.rizeq I highly recommend a retake.

Yeah, that's what I am going to do. While the material is still salient, I'm registered to slaughter February. I'll submit apps to those who accept February scores. If I'm not happy with any of the results, I'll hold my hand and just put everything on ice until next fall.

I'm losing hair by the minute.

RIP today.

LSAT:

Assuming I don't hit the 167-170 I'm looking for from December, I'll keep practicing everyday all day until February's administration. Specifically, I want to better prepare myself for the likelihood of another novel game type scenario. There's about 12-15 games circular, mapping, and non-formulaic games dating back to PT1 that I want to foolproof. I also want to keep fresh on my RC and LR drilling. Some 175+s and -0 sections on repeat PTs is also a goal.

Personal:

Cook more often and eat/order out less frequently.

@ I killed it so I can wait until Jan 4. But I was hoping for early release. Just relax

@

Lol. I'm calm, bro. I'm calm.

@.E.D My friend made significant progress after we analyzed, in great depth, every possible bearing each answer choice could have on an LR question.

But soooo many times an answer choice will have absolutely no bearing on anything mentioned or implied in the stimulus passage. Like you said, it's all about relationships. If there is no relationship, it is helpful to know an answer can and should be eliminated without having to think about anything else other than the fact that it is irrelevant. Sometimes the LSAT wants to trick you into overthinking things and start rationalizing why something could be correct when, in reality, all we need to care about is how it relates to the other words on the paper. Answers that are irrelevant or beyond the scope of sometimes entice me to begin inputing my own thoughts into the argument. That's not good, but I can usually able to nip this in the bud with a good 'ol "Irrelevant!" and save myself.

@ We'll find out when I submit my application package(s) with those elements

Lol, nice!

Anyone else do this?

Heck yes, I do!

@ Arguably, valuable work experience is more important than a great LSAT score in a perfect application package.

I just don't see how you could make that argument work.
