current 3L here - I was watching Barbri videos on 1.75x speed which reminds of the time I was watching all JY vidoes on 1.5x speed. Contrary to my user name, I actually never got that 173 on LSAT, but did get into a T20 and will start in biglaw starting next summer.
Looking back it's amazing how much I've changed over the last 2.5 years of law school. I'm turning this into an AMA, so if you have questions or need encouragement ask away.
I finished CC a while back, I'm curious, if I have done all questions from the CC, does this mean I have finished PT 17-35? I want to focus on doing new questions, thanks in advance!

would A be a strengthening answer choice?
following, in exact same situation.
I did find doing less highlights help me focus on the larger structure and not get too distracted with details. But my RC is still no where near perfect, varies from -4 to -10 so I'm curious to hear what other high scorers do to get -3 or less for RC.
There's still about a week to go for the November test, personally I would recommend you take the Nov test. Maybe try one PT a day or every other day to see if you can improve?
I'm not sure that I'd agree with JY on this one, but let me know if I'm wrong.
B - J says some farm have proven unsustainable (i.e. failed) also other take a long time to build a farm (so again not quick profit)
Basically B says some people failed to make a profit, while other people tried to make it sustainable for the long run, so no quick profit for either group.

"even when they laughed a little..." is this fluff?
The way I read it was that "even when" is a concession therefore not necessary for the argument. I chose A because of this, can anyone tell me whether my reasoning was correct?
I agree with Mike Ross. LR definitely feels more nuanced. Maybe LSAC knows most people are familiar with cookie cutter types, so they try to give you flaws/weaken/strengthens that are unique and they design the trap answers so that if you misread you'll think this is a cookie cutter type but it actually isn't
I just did a question today where usually = most.
e.g. "Kate usually buy juice on Wednesday" --- Wednesday most buy juice
Can I always translate usually to most? Was this mentioned in the CC?
I'm seeing a lot of LR questions worded with statements like "more likely" or "less likely."
e.g. people with university degrees are more likely to have dogs than cats
Can I interpret this sentence as university degree (positively CORR) dogs? Is there a better way to understand more likely/less likely sentences? Thanks in advance!
I'm reapplying for law school this year, and have heard some people say that I should update my LORs. Is it true?
Should I ask my professors to update their LOR from last year (or even just to resubmit using a new link so it's more "recent"?)
I have one new academic LOR, and have 2 LORs from last year, what do you guys think, does it matter to update LORs?
yesterday's LG was rediculous. I'm hoping -15 + but most likely won't happen, -12 is probably too conservative, -13/-14 would still be possible I think?

I'm curious how do you guys deal with the fatigue in the later sections. I just finished PT 48 and I had -0 for the 1st LR section (section 1) and -8 for the 2nd LR section (section 4). I feel extremely tried after/ or even during section 3 and don't have the mental sharpness to focus on the logical structures for the 2nd LR section.
How do you guys deal with test day fatigue? What do you guys usually eat during the 15 minute break, anyone having experience taking caffeine pills? Or should I do more PTs and learn to tough it out?
I found it helpful to do the contrapositive of E, if designed to limit typing speed → not designed for computer (because it's designed for typewriters)
This is the best I can do to understand E, I eliminated A, B, C and D but E just doesn't really make sense to me as the correct answer choice. Hope this is helpful.
this question took me 5 minutes. I mistakenly draw /RH →/II
should have read more carefully...

I chose D as well! I remembered recognizing that a stadium enables athletes to compete, but I guess irrigation and farming is more direct? I don't think D is wrong but just B is better. The "in the desert" part definitely throws me off a bit.
