Wow, thanks for all the great responses. Aargh, those flowers killed me! I got -4 on that test's game section. I will be sure to check out some of the other ones listed here too.

Ok, I can actually give some useful advice here (I think), because I had a similar problem until recently. When I looked back at questions I'd flagged like this, I would typically be biased against the answer that I'd already chosen. I'd feel unsure about it simply because I'd flagged it, and this would make me feel uncomfortable about sticking with my original choice. The action of switching your answer often feels more right, even if it isn't.

My advice: If you come across a question you intend to revisit, don't actually fill in an answer. Just cross off the ones that are obviously wrong, highlight the ones you're deciding between, and then return to it later. This way, when you revisit the question with fresh eyes, you'll be able to look at it in an unbiased way without worrying about whether you'll be "changing your answer" or not. And since you sound like you're finishing with a lot of time to spare, there's no worry about running out of time without answering all the questions.

Hope this helps!

Woah, okay. So is the test taking place across multiple days and times? How do I know what time/day I'll be taking mine?

Harder Logic Games

I've been scoring increasingly high on my practice tests lately, driven mostly by the fact that I've managed to get my Logic Games errors down to zero. However, looking at my analytics, I've realized that many of the tests I've taken recently have had LG sections rated only one or two stars out of five for difficulty. I'd like to practice on more difficult LG sections so I know that I'm not just taking easy sections, but I can't seem to find any (unless I'm mistaken, you cannot view the difficulty rating of a section until after you've taken it).

Does anyone have any recommendations for which tests have the hardest Logic Games sections? It seems as though the vast majority of these tests have very easy games, and I don't think that this is due 100% to my skills increasing. Are there LG sections rated 4 or 5 on the difficulty scale? Is there a way to see difficulty ratings before taking the test? Thank you very much for any help you can give me.

So I've set my test time for the 3rd. Just to clarify, should I go to ProctorU or to LawHub first on the day of the test? Also, does anybody know how long the breaks are between sections?

I've been having basically the same problem. I've gotten down to 0 wrong for the games and 2-3 for reading comp, but I seem to always get 3-5 questions wrong on reasoning even when I'm extremely confident. Often the ones that end up throwing me are the ones I didn't flag, so I never bother reviewing them when I have time at the end.

I think Reasoning is harder than the other two sections because, unlike the games and reading comp, there's no central passage or set of rules off of which a number of questions are based. Every question is standalone, so you can't figure something out and then apply that to a whole category of questions. Here's what I'm trying to do: Glance over every question at least a second time before finishing. I usually blow through these questions with about 10 minutes to spare, but then I go back and catch a good number of errors. Don't just go after the ones you've flagged; take a quick look at the other ones too just in case you notice something you didn't before. Fresh eyes help.
