Will practicing the other Games aid in doing well in those random MISC Logic Games? Is there a technique to approaching them? I think it is the initial shock factor that stumps me.

Will, Thank you so much for everything you wrote. In Logic Games the most I miss is only 1 and In Logical Reasoning it is around 5-6. Reading comprehension is what I was hoping would improve, but it is hard. I think I will take your advice and focus on LG and LR just to make sure that I can stay consistent. This Saturday I will drill RC with a single strategy and just try and get ready for test day. Thank you again for your help and I will focus on staying consistent on LG and LR.
I have read the Reading Comprehension bible, LSAT Trainer, and Voyager's guide on TLS.com. I still can't improve on reading comprehension. I keep missing 8-10 questions every time. With just a couple of days I am freaking out. I wanted to take the September LSAT but this is the only thing scaring me for the test and I really do not want to take the December LSAT. Are there any other tips that you all have. Maybe I am just not cut out to do well in Reading Comp.
I am getting really frustrated and it is because my full time job has recently been brutal (ridiculously stressful). My job is directly affecting my studying in the last month. It just drains me and I cannot concentrate. This has destroyed my confidence for the September test. I was on my way to getting the score I wanted, but lately I have been bombing everything. After I leave work I am just mentally drained; I can't make inferences for LG, I forget the stimulus, and reading comp has been terrible. Thinking of canceling my September test, but it bums me out since I was at the score I wanted. It feels like I am burnt out, but not because of the LSAT, but because of WORK.
Any advice would be great. If anyone can relate or has any useful tips.

Something that works for me is to make yourself believe that whatever the passage is about is YOUR passion in life. I don't know if that makes sense...let's say that the passage is about some weird insect in south america. You have to tell yourself by the first sentence that your life is not complete without understanding that passage about that particular insect. Read the passage as if its what will lead you to meet the love of your life, will help you get a job, will allow you to live forever.
Once you put that level of engagement in a passage every question will be easy. Sure question will come up that are hard, but the fact that you are answering easy question quickly, will allow you to spend a little more time on harder questions.
That is what works for me and maybe it won't work for you, but try it. Just try your hardest to show interest in the passage and questions will be easier.

So if I had this statement: No candy is bitter. NO(C-->B) meaning C-->/B could that translate to C and /B. You can have candy and it not be bitter. Is that right? I think I am over thinking it a lot...

In (A--->B) ---> C. Couldn't the contrapositive just be
/C---> A--->/B. I am not getting how it gets to /C---> A and /B.
I just need some clarification now how NOT (A--->B) turns into A and /B.

Thank you all! I was feeling down earlier, but I will keep going!
Looking at all my practice test, this is where I have the most trouble at.
I am simply not improving in logical reasoning. It just does not click. I am really frustrated and want to give up. With reading comp I can usually get all of them right and I can complete 3-4 logic games, but I always bomb the logical reasoning section. I feel as if I am missing something. Am I just meant to never do well on those. I don't think I want to take the September test.
I am currently scoring 159 consistently and have not been able to break 160. There are less than four weeks for the September LSAT. I was hoping to get a 165, but not sure if that is possible.
Should I take the December LSAT? I am only hesitant because of how much work I have done (all while working), that any more and I will go crazy.
jasonawdriscoll, do you recommend HCF?
