@ said:

If it isn't a financial hardship, the cost is well worth it. The RC explanations are actually ridiculously good. So thorough, and at LEAST as good as his LR explanations, JY is a master. In my opinion, the cost of this program is quite inexpensive for what you receive.

What about the difference between Ultimate and Ultimate+ ? I'm debating keeping the Ultimate until I finish all the prep tests and only then, if I feel like I can still improve (and if I finish everything in time) to upgrade. My only fear is that missing out on the hard problem sets and LG bundles will harm my studying along the way?

Withdraw or Retake?

I am signed up for June 2018, I have never taken the LSAT before, and I am almost certain that I will retake the LSAT June 2019. I plan on taking ~a year to work through the Ultimate package and work my PT score up. I signed up for June 2018 about 3 months ago before realizing I would need MUCH more time to get the score I want. Now I'm faced with the option of either still taking it as "practice" and then retaking it in a year after I've had the chance to get solid training, or skipoing all together. My question is, is it worth the potential harm a lower score will cause my application? I PT between 156-161 and hope to improve my score to the high 160s+ by next year. Wouldn't it be better to just skip June 2018 if I know I will retake regardless? I don't want law schools to see my 150s score if they don't have to, and if I just withdraw then they will be none the wiser.

Or, since its already paid for, should I just suck it up and take it for practice?

Is it necessary to watch the video for every problem in the set even if you got it right?

Fool-proofing LG

Can someone explain the process of fool-proofing? What resources do you use? Does is matter if I fool proof before or after going through CC? How many months (average) does is take?

That makes sense very thorough is deff my intention. So another issue I have is I’ve already signed up for the June 2018 and it’s to costly to push it the two times I’d need to for June 2019, so I am going to take it just for the testing experience and not get too caught up on my score. Because it’s 1.5 months away, I thought maybe I could start foolproofing LG until then and then once it’s passed, finish fool proofing if I haven’t already and then work through CC? I also started with Power Score, so I have all the Bible’s (and training type booklets which I’m now avoiding as to not burn through preptests unnecessarily), AND Kaplain has a free study course happening for the month of may that I signed up for (before finding 7sage)... feeling a bit lost which to start with and if it might be more damaging to continue with power score/kaplain until I switch to CC. But I don’t want to start CC now and be “disrupted” so to speak by the June 2018...

One Year Study Plan

Hey guys, so I recently decided to postpone from taking the June 2018 to June 2019. Now with all this extra time on my hands I'm trying to figure out how to pace myself. I've been studying about 2 hours/day during the week and 3 hours/day on weekends (working full time + two kids). I want to start with the CC and then once I work through it upgrade to the Ultimate package, but I'm also seeing talk of the Trainer by Mike Kim? Any advice on what rate to pace myself at as to not run out of preptests, go too slowly as to not be actively involved, and also if purchasing the Starter now and upgrading as I progress throughout the next 14 months?

Backround: my diagnostic is 157, the highest I've scored is 161, I want high 160s to low 170s (or higher obv.)

Highly annoyed. Got a 159, which is plenty to get into my regional school, but I was prep-testing up to the 165... not really worth a retake because I will be applying in June (rolling application, 1st year starts this August). But my ego has taken a hit because I KNOW I can do so much better.

@ Yes, I'm interested to find out how people prepare for the application of the second degree. As far as getting into law school, its pretty straight forward: practice (with 7sage) for the LSAT and get all the other components (personal, letters etc.) together and apply. My grades from undergrad are what they are and I work in a law firm, taking the LSAT is basically the only area of focus for me at this point. But I'm wondering if anyone focuses on building up their softs for a separate application, if the masters program doesn't care about your LSAT score then should I put more energy into working in the field that I want to major in (Policy)?

Sweets are my weak spot so I’m very careful with how I start my day. During the work week I make a veggie smoothie that is rich and super satisfying and I truly enjoy it (I know it sounds wierd) Unusually consists of:

•one peeled cucumber

•1/2 cup of steamed then frozen chopped cauliflower or zucchini

•1/2 cup of frozen spinach

•1/2 an avocado

•2 tbs chia seeds

•1 tbs ground flax seeds

•1 tbs collagen powder (does not add any flavor)

•crap ton of cinnamon powder (for balancing blood sugar and the flavor is phenom)

•if you must have fruit in it, 1/2 cup of blueberries

Add water and blend (I use the large Nutribullet). This smoothie adds a ton of veggies straight off the bat, and if you don’t add the blueberries has basically no sugar, plenty of healthy fats & fiber, and the collagen even adds some protein. Checks off all the boxes!

Melatonin is a natural vitamin you can buy at the drug store that might help you fall asleep. Not something you nevessarily want to take forever (the more you take it the less your body feels the need to produce it making it difficult in the long run to utilize your body’s natural sleep methods) but it might be a good temporary fix.

Do we have any idea how law schools might favor traditionally taken LSATs to the digital versions? Next cycle there will be a combination of paper and digital LSAT scores, do you think to top tiers will lean towards the paper test takers?

So this might be a stupid question but is it better to have a watch with numbers or no numbers? Numbers are easier to read than calculating by just the placement of the watch arms, but maybe distracting or just unnecessary information since it is not relevant what time it is, just how much time you have left...

“Safe” LG practice questions

I’m not starting CC until next month but I want to practice LG with JYs videos until then, does anyone know which year to start going back from so as not to interfere with practice working through CC (and obv. not burning PTs)

Side note: I’m taking June 2019 so I plan on taking a minimum of 40 PTs over the next year

I haven’t started CC yet would it still be beneficial to join in for one? Will these be available for playback in a few months?

Is anyone considering canceling their score? I rely on -0 on the LG to boost my overall score, I skipped and came back to the 3rd to last game (Co author game?, I can't remember its all a blur now)

Confirm action

Are you sure?
