Hi!
I'm aiming for a 170+ in June/July 2019. Please comment or DM if you'd like to study together!

I just took PT 84 today and didn't do so hot either. But that's ok; some preptests we got the hot hand and some not so much. Regardless of what preptest you choose; it really doesn't matter. What matters is the hard work you've done.
What matters is that you've worked hard on the fundamentals of LR, LG, and RC and prepared yourself for anything the test writers will throw at you.
What matters is that you've studied to put yourself in a position to do well on any given LSAT; including the easiest and most difficult of them all.
So whatever preptest you choose and whatever questions you get come Saturday; remember that you've prepared yourself to do your best!
PS: If you need someone to talk to about the mental aspect of the LSAT check your study buddy invites :)
I'm putting more of an emphasis on a slow and tedious blind review this time around and really focusing on my weak areas.

Answering the questions out of order for each passage can be helpful. I typically do the questions that refer to a specific word, line, or paragraph first and the harder "inference/attitude/most strongly supported/the passage states which one of the following questions" last.
If you do this, you will not only have done what I think are the easier questions first; you will have also re-read parts of the passage.
So by the time you get to the harder questions, you will have way re-read parts of the passage and refreshed yourself on the organization of the passage. Thus, you won't have to look as hard and re-read/skim the passage as much to find the right answer and eliminate wrong answers.
I actually finished this book and it helped me immensely with LR! I recommend at least reading up to chapter 12 and even reading it if you have the time! Ellen’s material on answer choices (especially her powerful-provable categorization) were very helpful to me. Those chapters did a great job helping me recognize types of flawed answer choices and as such, helped me become more efficient at eliminating them.
