With your schedule you may have burned out based on how long you been studying with that crazy schedule. Make sure to plan breaks and meditate or take 30 min naps as you need it. I had a similar issue where I couldn’t get through the last couple of questions because I was EXHAUSTED. This may or may not be your issue but assess your health status and see what may be causing issues.

In addition, make sure to do blind reviews and keep a wrong answer journal. It also sounds like you aren’t learning from your mistakes. Write down what question type you got wrong, why you didn’t choose the right answer and why you chose the wrong answer. Then write why the right answer is right and the wrong answer is wrong. This will force you to address your thought process and reconsider how you’re approaching certain questions.

Thank you for your reply! After taking a PT I usually take a little break and then review each answer in depth, either to confirm my thought process for the correct ones, and then to see where I went wrong for the others. I have begun to start documenting what type of questions I am getting wrong, but find it to be a little bit of everything. I think it would be best to go back and review the question types, but with taking it in January i am afraid i will not be able to go through enough of the information in time. SMH

How is your LR and RC? Do you get through all of them? For me, I could never finish a full LR without feeling like I didn't understand the stimulus well enough. So I started just focusing on answering question 1-20 with high accuracy! Along with answer 3 RC passages with high accuracy!

This helped me a lot with breaking into the 150s

I think I will give this a try! I feel like when I am rushed I begin to second guess myself, or make stupid mistakes, becuase I am trying to over compensate. But thank you for replying and sharing your tip!

For RC, do you rush through the passage? I used to get -12 on RC but once i started focusing on the passages, it was easier for me to blaze through the questions. In my opinion, its more beneficial to spend an extra minute or two reading and understanding the passage than it is to focus on the questions

I usually spend about 4 minutes reading the passage with writing out the Low resolution quickly, which I think helps, but I am not able to finish in time and am always rushing at the end :(

In need of Help!!!!

My goal is to get at least 150 to be able to be accepted into the JD Law program. i am not trying to get 160's +, I am just trying to break the 150's. I am consistently hitting the mid 140's on all Practice Tests I do. No matter what I do, it has not improved.... I understand where I make my mistakes, but I feel that I am falling under the time pressure. I can't seem to get faster, although i get majoirty or higher right on the problem sets. I am getting a consistent -12 on LR, usually -5 on LG and like -16 on RC. I havent studied too much on RC but I am going to really start crunching on that. Any tips or reccomendations would be greatly appreciated. I am beginning to doubt myself more than I already am. I am taking the test in January again!!

I began studying in August for about 6 hrs a day, although I was wroking 45+ a week, a full course load in college and playing collegiate soccer. So I understand I was definitely doing too much, but this was like an addiction. I felt guilty if I was doing anything, but LSAT. Please any tips would be greatly appreciated, I feel I have invested too much time and especially too much money to stop now.

I was left with B and D as my remaining answers and found myself trapped!!! Ugh, In the stimulus, it states, "Today MOST new zoo animals are obtained from captive breeding stocks for CONTINUED propagation of various species ..."

I assumed that B) Some specimens of endangered species are born and bred in captivity. (The some did not seem sufficient enough to use since "some" and "most" are clearly different. D seemed to be more generic and similar language using the NEARLY ALL, I see now that the specific language of which exact type of animals was more important!

Did anybody have a similar think process, or choose D for that reason?

@ Hi there ! First off, thank you so much for this session. Just curious, should we come to the session with the questions completed already?

Hi! I was on the last session, without doing the section, and i think it would be more helpful to do them before time. That way you have an idea of what is going on and can be more active in answering or asking questions!

After seeing the explanation, I understand where I went wrong in choosing the answer D. However; I am not sure how I will catch this as I am hauling ass to answer all the questions in time.

Hi! i believe on the website it is either the 16th or 17th! I am unsure of why we are given less days to be able to take this test, but these were the 2 dates that I was able to find on the website!

Tips for Testing Anxiety

I have always been an awful test taker, regardless of the subject or however knowledgeful I am in those topics. I would rather speak in front of the class then take a test. With this test it has only increased my anxiety levels, has anyone or does anyone have any tips to combat this feeling. I feel that it is truly hurting my score and in thinking that i need a certain score to get into the my school of choosing is further amplifying that. Please help, I am taking the LSAT in 2 weeks, which is not helping :(!!!!!
