My BR score for the last three tests were 162, 164, 169. For my reading comprehension, my best was -7 but my worst was -11. However, after taking this preptest 41, my reading score suddenly dropped to 46%. Aside from reading, my game was 38% in PT 36 which slowly improved to 43% in PT 37, 54% in PT 38, 52% in PT 39, and 78% in PT40. But for PT 41, my LG dropped to 46%. MY LR fluctuates a lot from 60% to 75%. Currently working on BR for Preptest 41.

I kinda went back and forth in studying. I began studying in May, 2015. However, due to school works, I took breaks many times. I was finished with my school in March, 2016 so I began some intensive studying ever since that date - doing average 40 hours per week. I finished my curriculum after two weeks. Up until now, I've done 36-41 PT.

Significant drop in PT score

Hi, I just took my PT 41 and analyzed my score. I have increased my PT score from 150 to 159 until PT 41. However, I am surprised to find my PT score dropping to 147 - which is 12 points drop from my last PT. I don't know if my score is improving or not... I feel like my skill is actually deteriorating. Any advice on how to improve my studying method? I usually do BR on LR section by writing explanation to each answer choice on Word document. For reading, I just redo the whole questions by giving me unlimited time.

I don't particularly find PT 70s that different from PT 60s. I actually saw a boost in my score when taking PT 72. I was initially very afraid to take the test after hearing about all kinds of horror stories related to PT 72. Contrary to my expectation, it was not really that bad. I think it really depends on people's feeling.

I initially chose answer choice A because some people being allergic does not necessarily imply that patients being studied have to be one of the - similar to how most of the people in the industrialized nation using telephone does not tell anything about patients being studied in this passage.

I chose answer choice A since rest of the answer choices used the word "politicians." This passage - if we confine ourselves to this weird world - states about legislative representatives. They used different wording in answer choices.

There are some of the questions that are hard to understand - which also have answers that are so subtle. For those questions, there are times when my entire reasoning goes wrong. If that happens, I watch the video posted by JY (or for old Preps, I compare my reasoning with Kaplan's explanations). I will probably have to look for BR group.

Drilling LR from old PT

I am recently taking LR from old PTs(1-20) in order to boost my score on this section. My maximum score is 159 but it fluctuates a lot. I sometimes scored 151 and stopped after scoring 156 on PT 46. I realized that my LR section score fluctuates between 60 - 70%. It seems that my LR hasn't improved much from 2007 test - which is 64% per section. I am not sure if my method is right. I've already went through 7sage package. Do I have to use LSAT trainer again? Or Cambridge LR bundle? BTW I've been writing down almost every time I BR my PTs.

lsac gpa conversion

Hi, I just have a brief question. I just looked at my school's office of registrar site and found out that gpa of 3.5 is equivalent to a letter grade of A-. According to LSAC gpa conversion chart, it is stated that A- starts from 3.67. Does this mean that my 3.5 gpa gets converted to starting from 3.67? Thanks.
