thanks for the response!
i have been keeping a wrong answer journal, and it's always different types of questions that i get wrong. i also make sure to try drills for specific question types that i find the most difficult (necessary assumption and parallel), and i also do questions that are all mixed to make it seem more like the real LSAT. the thing is with drills, i do around 25 questions to make it seem more like a real LR/RC question set, but i guess having to do back to back questions is really draining me. however, i would think that i would at least do the same on the first section of a practice LSAT as i would on a drill since it's the first set i'm doing. still, i miss a lot more on practice LSATs than on the 25+ question drills.
i guess i just have to keep working on not burning out.
is it just me that does so well on drills but sees very little improvements on practice lsats?
almost on every drill that i do, i only get 1-2 wrong, or even get everything right, but when i take a practice lsat, i miss a lot more. i'm just wondering if anyone else is having the same problems, and what you did to improve.
wow, the first passage was the worst ive ever done on an RC section, even worse than my cold LSAT rc. the difficulty was only a level 3, and ive gotten all the questions right on a level 5 passage before. i'm not sure at all what went wrong with that passage specifically, but i feel so much worse now lol
11/11 but the difficulty was only level 1 and 3 so not completely sure of my improvement yet
12/14 first attempt
13/14 br
really struggled with the MP for the first reading, not sure why. i always thought MP was my strongest question type. gotta practice more
why did i miss so many of the NA questions throughout the lesson but get a 5/5 on this one all under the time limit
i bet it's bcuz of the difficulty but idk how confident i feel abt NA questions just cuz of my inconsistency
@ALMarshall
because the "who was" indicates that it is a modifier, it's describing Mary Simms to us
but the overall sentence is trying to tell us that Mary Simms declared something
if we take out the part of the sentence "who was representing an outdoor advertising company," the sentence, "At the meeting, Marry Simms declared, 'Billboards are the basis of our business'." still makes sense on its own.
however, if we took out "declared, 'Billboards are the basis of our business'." the sentence no longer makes sense, it's incomplete.
"At the meeting, Mary Simms, who was representing an outdoor advertising company."

thanks for the response! i'll definitely try working on my mindset because i think it'll help to try breaking things up.
