Looking for a tutor

Hello, I would like a 1 on 1 tutor to help me study for the next 3 weeks until January 16th test! I feel like I'm so close to clicking with this test and need an extra boost with it. I was PT in the 162 area consistently before the November test, then had lots of non-lsat things happen the day before and I was completely shaken and score 149.

Ideally I would like a 170+ and I know that I can do it! Price will be open to discussion! Not too demanding, I'm thinking 2-3hrs per week for the next 3 weeks.

My games are -1 or -0, and my LR and RC I can do all the question types. LR I keep making dumb mistakes or having odd questions that don't register. RC I need to focus on reading for structure of the passage, if I understand the passage, the I understand the questions but the passage.

Please let me know if you are interested :)

Panic with timed work, pls help

Hi! I’m having some trouble, if anyone can help me out, I would greatly appreciate it.

So, I’ve been studying for a couple months. I’ve been diligent with solidifying the general theory and question specific approaches. I enjoy learning this material and the ‘problem solving/puzzle’ aspect of LR and AR. I feel comfortable when I drill untimed or do the questions in the explanatory videos before watching them, and I see that my thinking is line with what JY has been teaching us. I also solve questions at a decent pace.

But the second I start to do some timed work, I completely freeze. I get so panicked! I reread stimuli multiple times and the answer choices still seem like they belong to another question. I only answer on ‘gut feelings’ that I can’t even explain during the practice. I’m VERY slow (about 15 questions answered per section), and to top it off I get increasingly panicked with every question. I spend more time partially reading and skipping around questions without making sense of anything.

I don’t have anxiety and I’m a relaxed person, even with school. I’ve tried to cover the timer for the problem sets, but just knowing that the timer is going is enough for me to freeze and significantly underperform.

I’m very frustrated because I know what I’m doing and how to do this test, but there is a barrier with actual performance. Does anyone have any advice or experience with something like this?

LR study and info organization

Hi! I'm revisiting the LR work and I feel like I've just learned so many things and there are so many things to keep in mind that I've getting a little bogged down. Does anyone have any helpful tips on how the transferred the material they learned in the course content into memory, and then into application for timed sections? I'd really appreciate it!!

*To clarify, I have all the notes and study materials, but I'm having trouble utilizing it efficiently and memorizing all the considerations.

RC Annotation on LSAT Flex

I like to write in the margins for RC passages and I'm struggling with how to fully grasp a passage on the online flex test. How have people been using the 3 highlighters and/or writing notes?

Thank you

Me please! I'd love a study group!

Hi! I have noticed that when I take PTs, I struggle with changing gears when sections change. What I mean by that is if the first section is LR, I am able to get into the swing of LR but then when it switches to RC for the next section, I'm slow at getting my brain to read and answer RC questions.

I notice that I do worse on sections as the test goes on. This isn't an endurance issue because I'm not tired or want to stop, I'm just not able to think as quickly.

Any advice for what people do or how to get over this?
