Hey guys,
I took the LSAT in December, but was not happy with my score. I've done much better on previous PTs.
I was wondering if anyone out there was or is in a similar situation. How should I approach this next month? Should I revisit some of the main concepts and then redo some of the PTs?
Thanks in advance everyone.
KS and ErickT, when I read your post I found it funny, because the frustration is exactly what I'm feeling right now.
I started off with the Bibles, did 7Sage, then tried to review both while getting after the PTs.
The problem for me is consistency throughout the test. On certain LR sections I can get 5 wrong, while on others its 6-8. On RC I'm fluctuating anywhere from 4-8 in timed conditions.
I'm hammering away at the PTs, but I don't notice a real improvement, but I think like most things, there's a threshold that you have to breach before improvement can occur. Or at least I hope so, then again I'm not shooting for a 170, just need my 165-166 to go where I want.
JY, I'm looking back at this problem and I'm wondering if there was an exercise dedicated to translating things like this.
I was wondering what everyone's thoughts were on this method?
So far I've just been doing VIEWSTAMP and following the 7Sage advice, but I can't help but miss several per PT section. Anyhow, I was wondering if it would help to switch it up a bit by absorbing the questions first, but I am worried that this approach wouldn't work because my reading would become biased.
Just took my first PT from the syllabus #36.
I went blank on the logical reasoning section. Is this normal for a first PT and if not, what can I do to improve.
Other sections were -6, -6, and -5.
JY, this question reminds me of the LR question about the business executives and the professors. It's almost the exact same but with different names.
Hey,
That's exactly my problem. I feel as if I can always get it down to two, but from there I'm just gambling with a 50/50.
Thanks for the advice on the strong language, I feel as if that has been part of the problem.
Hello everyone,
I'm having trouble with the LR sections. I can't seem to get a proper hold of when to diagram or when not to, and it usually ends with me taking the trap answers.
I've walked through the 7sage LR guides, but I am not quite sure how to tackle these problems effectively. Does 7sage or does anyone know a drill or another place where I could look.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks for the advice guys.
PM me if anyone wants a study buddy or someone to move along with till February that's doing a re-take.
