After doing the LG and RC parts of 7Sage, I'm struggling with LR questions. It's only been a few weeks since I finished LR but I'm having trouble remembering the question types and tactics. Currently, I'm going back to each question type and watching the explainer video and doing some problem sets—and where I was quite good a month ago, I am not doing so hot right now. I am taking the flex in April (I promise I'm not slacking, I work a 10hr+/day job!).
Does anyone have good review tactics before I move to practice tests? Any advice/thoughts/materials would be greatly appreciated! Thanks & happy studying.
Hi, I recently signed up with 7Sage, and I was having that same trouble you are having now, but prior to signing up with 7sage, I got worse and worse back in 2019, however, I did not give up. Once I signed up and started the LR, I realize my problem rest in the way I thought about each question. This might sound simple, but changing how you think about each question will make a MAJOR difference. For example the MSS questions, - I was looking at it from a completely different way. Check how you are thinking, when you encounter the different questions.
Once I listened to the instructor and then pause between and process what he was saying. Is like a light bulb went off in my head, I was like "O" my problem is how I thought about this question, so for every MSS answer choice, I asked myself, can I support my choice, based on the information I have? It is not always easy, but this was a MAJOR breakthrough for me.
Then I had ALOT of problems with weakening questions, I kept trying to weakening the conclusion - WRONG MOVE, once I heard this instructor stress the fact about weakening the support, I was like "O" however, I did not get it at first, but I had to think about it for couple hours to a day - seriously, because I had to rid my mind of the old way I thought about the question. So the good news is now my mindset has change completely for the first time. I just need to pick up on speed, which will come with practice. But the best advice I could give is change how you think about each problem and follow the instructor carefully, he knows exactly what he is saying.
Happy studying - you can do this!
