How was it different from PT 78?

I heard virus game and a couple of passage were difficult...But what about other games?

I watched the explanation video but I felt other games in the test seem relatively more difficult than previous tests too, isn't it?

It seems there are more inference because the videos are longer. (average 15 min)

What about LR section?

Thanks!

Hello, so I'm looking for another recommender now and got a reply from one of the profs I contacted and...

He said he is ill (has serious illness he said) now and just got back from hospital.

(He also retired from teaching.)

He was the 2nd best prof I knew and since the best prof I know may not be available, I really hoped that I could get a letter from him.

I don't know...normally I would not ask or bother him but I may not be able to find another prof...

What should I do?

Can I still ask him to write a letter or should I not bother him?

If I end up getting a terrible score on LSAT, would good LOR help me to get me into a good school? :(

Or it would not make that much difference? (even if I get really good ones or just good ones or fine ones...)

Would LSAT and GPA just determine where I can go?

Hi,

When I think I arrived at the correct answer choice I tend to choose it and move on...

Or just reading the first part of the answer choice and stop when I found some words are not right.

Because otherwise I will not have enough time to finish all passages...:(

Is this a bad strategy?

Do you answer those questions by memory or go back to the passage?

Or like...

After you finish reading passage A you go through all questions?

What is the first sentence?

I thought this is the conclusion because it says "undeniably"...

and all the rest are premise :(

Is it because of math?

How is math related to LG? :(

Hi

So I asked my professor to write a letter and she said yes, but until I take the test she will not write one for me...

Does this happen to you?

Because if after the test, it takes a month to see the result and if she starts to write a letter after that it will take more time.

In fact, the other day when I asked her she said she may not be able to write depending on the deadline.

so...when should I ask her then?

I'm not even sure when I will take the test...

How many of you actually could figure out similar or same game boards as JY's in the first place?

For some reason I thought the key was to recognize we need to use an arrow to represent the transimission...

Anyone used different approach?

And feel like not ready, can we move it to other dates? such as June 2017...

Hi,

When we forward transcript online, it requires our LSAC account #, but I may put the number wrongly...

What would happen?

I think I skipped the first letter thinking only the number is the account ID.

Would they still proceed my transcript or would they actually transfer it to someone's account?

I cannot call them as my phone is broken now...so worried about this.

Anyone knows something about this?

Thank you

Hi,

I heard if you want to re-apply the same school you should re-write your essays, but what about LOR?

Can we use the same letters?

Thank you in advance,

Hello, I have a question about the system...

Where is the transcript requesting form?

I registered my schools, but I do not see the forms.

Also, it says it takes about 2 weeks to proceed...what if it will not be done by the deadlines of school application?

How long did it take for you?

It requires my signiture, so can I just type or do I have to print it and mail to my college? (I cannot attach it to email when I ask my institution when forwarding transcript?)

Thank you for the help in advance.

In terms of difficulty and subject matter, how has it changed over time?

Does modern RC have more difficult passages and more noticeable characteristics?

I know people say questions become more subtle and longer, but wonder whether content changed.

For example, do you have family member working as stuff at XX law school etc...

why do they ask this?

If they do have, does this mean it affects them negatively or positively?

I'm just curious...

Thank you in advance!!

Hi,

I heard modern RC has questions that are more abstract...which PTs do you think this started??

People say "modern" referring which PT? IT is kind of unclear...70s? 60s? or 50s?

Thanks

Hello, would like to hear from other students as well...

So I'm thinking to visit the schools that I would like to apply.

Would it be helpful to talk to admission people there or can it actually hurt?

I do not want to give negative images and thought if so I would rather not visiting them...

In which case it can hurt application and in which case it can be helpful?

What questions would you ask them and what questions would you avoid?

Thank you!

do you see the ranking or specialization?

Within what rank is acceptable?

Such as...within 100, 50, etc.

If below this ranking should I wait for another cycle?

Hi,

Hi, just wondering...anyone noticed the characteristics of wrong answer choices in RC?

I mean...do they come from the same paragraph or close place? I know for some answer choices they are factually incorrect but for some others they twist the details ect, and part of the choice is correct, and this confuses me a lot. Do correct answer choices and wrong answer choices come from the same paragraph?

Especially for those detail questions...

Hello everyone,

I was just wondering,

When is usually the last day when we receive notice from schools that we apply?

School starts on August, right?

Will we be able to find out all results by April?

Or can some results arrive on May and after?

Thank you!

Hi,

So I was doing LG today and met this substitution question...

In sequence games or games you combine rules do you combine rules as you read new rules or you write them separately so when you have this question you can easily notice which rule is substituted?

I was doing PT 73 game 2 and the last question, and I was not sure between B and E because both seem true :(

Edit&additional questions:

Let me change the title and ask a bit different question since it seems we can only post 2 threads per day...

for RC, do you think reading questions first would help me to understand what passage would say better?

Especially for those hard passages...

I know ppl recommend not reading questions first, but I'm terribly weak at hard RC...would it be helpful?

Original post:

Hi, this may sound a little weird question, but...

Which makes you comprehend the reading better, read it faster or slower?

Especially for those hard questions and passages in LR and RC...

I found sometimes even though I decrease the speed to understand better, it sometimes makes me even more confusing when I read slow. (and sometimes it's the same) But sometimes reading slower works better...

So I was wondering how others read...when you do not understand something in the passage, do you decrease your speed?

Or push reading?

Thanks

Feel really stressful...

They chat in the living room and I cannot sleep well.

She does not let me know in advance even though I asked her so many times.

How should I tell her?

After she invite a frined A then she invited a friend B...and it's a male this time. He has already been here for a week and before that he stayed on Friday. Sat. Sun...

Is this normal???

I told her I'm studying for LSAT but...

Sorry not related to lSAT question :(

Hi,

When you do LG do you always have complete, perfect diagram like JY's?

I found I often have diagrams that are incomplete...very similar to JY's but did not have enough inference or did not divide into sub game boards etc.

Does this happen to you or am I just not mature enough on LG yet?

Thanks

Hi

I thought if there is no cause, then no effect can be true and can strengthen an argument.

then I met this question...PT65.S1.Q15.

From the correct answer it seems it suggests even though there is no such a cause, an effect can happen and thus the argument is a flaw.

So...no cause, then no effect does not actually always be true??

Why in one case it can be a strengthener and in another case it is a flaw...
