I just did my kira interview for UT and cornell and I feel like a fell short on the video questions. I was wondering if sending a thank you for the opportunity/I could do better email would be a bad idea?

@pcainti665 congrats!! how long after the interview did you get the call?
I've just been asked to do the Kira interview for Cornell. I was wondering if anyone here has done that interview and can give me some guidance as to how to prepare.
Also, are all applicants asked to do this? is it a good or bad sign?
@pcoelho113 what kind of questions did they ask??
@7sagestudentservices what about for ultimate+ printing?
does anyone know when this PT will be published?
hi, zzzquil is great, but i don't recommend taking it the night before a PT or the actual test unless you wake up 4-5 hours before the test. I'm usually really slow and groggy the morning after. I take it when i experience bad insomnia and it's worth feeling a bit groggy and get 8 hours of sleep over getting 2-3 hours a night for a long period of time.
@gregoryalexanderdevine723 @gregoryalexanderdevine723 @mdearden704.dearden Thank you for the input!! You are right, there's no reason for me not to retake
I got a 167 on the september test, and I am happy with it but i was hoping for a 170+
Cornell is my dream school, so i was hoping to get peoples' opinions here and see if i should take one more shot at the test?
hope everyone who took the test performed as they wished!!
I'm not sure if i literally blacked out after the test, but none of these seem to ring a bell haha! Are tests administered abroad different than the ones in the US? If so, anyone else sit for the test in london??
Hi, I was wondering if most of you add a 5th section to your PTs, and if so do you take those sections from unseen PTs or from old ones?
id like to join
i found it tough to distinguish the doctor's "second set of recommendation"
The thing that made this question slightly more difficult is the flaw in the argument (mistaking a decrease in part of the industry for a decrease in the whole industry). But the conclusion is ultimately about weather or not the mentioned decrease was due to the legislation, which is why A is correct as opposed to C.
@mrosa1210177 I'm still struggling with confidence level, but all the steps you mentioned are really helpful! it's good to have a systematic way of breaking down each passage and questions, my reviewing before was kind of inconsistent when i look back!!
@gregoryalexanderdevine723 not stupid at all!!! I want all the help i can get haha! thank you
@mrosa1210177 thank you so much for being so detailed! I'm definitely trying this tomorrow!
I'm finally breaking into the score range I want and I know that RC is my biggest challenge and the one sections I'm still a bit inconsistent in. When I'm blind reviewing I've been able to get the right answers (mostly), but I'm not at all able to feel confident in my answer choices. I think it's because I can usually eliminate the wrong answers and not find support for the right answers.
does anyone have any tips or advice?? In specific for finding support for inference question, but just for BRing RC in general!!
best of luck everyone, and any help will be appreciated
i'm going with one of those 'naked' bars which have around 3 ingredients (dates and a variation of nuts). these are quite small so good for the people who aren't that hungry during the break, and the dates give me a burst of energy to keep going.
hi, can someone explain why answer choice e isnt a match? I'm still not 100% sure after BRing and watching the explination vid.

i missed the assumption that easily destroyed is a disadvantage. the argument alludes to it being negative but does not specify.
because in the places where goblin fern is disappearing there are leaf litter eating Lumbricus Rubellus, LR are causing the ferns disappearance. (causation from correlation).
a) may be true but doesn’t address weather LR can cause the gobbling fern to disappear.
b) Not related to the argument
c) Irrelevant
d) If there are no places where both can be found then there wouldn’t be a correlation
e) Correct. If LR favors places with thinner leaf litter then it doesn’t cause it to thin, it’s the other way around.
From the finding that people who drink 3c of decaf were more like than those drinking reg coffee to develop arthritis, the author concludes that decaf contains something that contributes to arthritis. GAP: what if reg coffee prevents inflammation, what if its an accompanying condition (sweetner choice, people who drink decaf could suffer with insomnia which causes stress and inflammation etc).
a) could be correct though it requires the assumption that exercise contributes to the prevention or development of arthritis.
b) Wrong because the frequency is accounted for in the argument (3 cups a day)
c) Correct. If caffeine prevents the degeneration of connective tissues than its drinking coffee that prevents arthritis and not decaf that causes it.
d) Wrong for the same reason as answer choice B. the frequency of consumption is accounted for.
e) Incorrect. If people w arthritis are less likely to drink, say, regular coffee, than the general population does it mean they are more likely to drink decaf instead?
@zachweisenbarger992 awesome!! I've been wanting to but I live in Iceland and the time difference makes it hard! are you taking the June LSAT?
Thank you @gregoryalexanderdevine723 @kimberleemcmillin935 @roystanator440. I got into Cornell!!
