Finishing Core Curriculum - What's Next?

Hello 7Sagers! I've finally finished the core curriculum. I'm torn as to what I should do next. Should I A.) start taking full length PTs and BR them, B.) Work through some drilling materials to refresh materials like LR I haven't touched in a few months, then start taking timed PTs and BR, C.) a combo of both establishing a baseline with a post core curriculum PT score and working with drilling materials in weak areas, or D.) full proof for the next month on games before beginning full length PTs? Thoughts and advice on this would be much appreciated.

So, I completely overlooked in the question stem we were to weaken Debbie’s argument. I selected (A) because I thought we were to weakening Carl’s argument. Does (A) actually weaken his argument? Need to spend an extra second and slow down my reading instead of blowing through the question stem. I totally get why (D) is the correct answer (we have to weaken Debbie’s argument).

Hello fellow LSAT studiers/7sagers, gust wanted to hear peoples thoughts on study habits for full time workers and those who are also married and studying. What are some of the schedules people stick to, study habits, or ave. hours one may put in weekday vs weekend? Also any guidance on ensuring your spouse gets attention while also giving you space and support one may need for studying for this crazy exam? Any guidance or advise on these topics would be much appreciated!

As for me, I intend on sitting for the January LSAT. I started studying at the beginning of this month and have been putting in 2 to 3 hours a week day (Mon - Fri) and 5 to 8 hours btwn Sat. and Sunday (aiming for 10 to 12 hours a week). Is this enough time?

-Thanks!

So this question completely through me for a loop. I correctly identified the conclusion (yaye me), and was immediately shot down and dejected after going through BR steps. ‘A’ isn’t the answer (sigh). My over confident butt completely miss-interpreted what the conclusion was actually saying. Sex and Gender, as indicated in the premise, are used interchangeably. The author proceeds in the conclusion to explain, in detail, exactly why that assertion is incorrect. Like you CogitoLogicto, I’m sitting here typing out my thought process and realized almost instantaneously my error. Thanks folks for sharing your thought on this, it actually helped me get why I was wrong and why ‘D’ is correct.
