PT66 BR Tonight at 8pm EST
Just when you were thinking to yourself, "Man I sure could use some group blind review..." Well, we're doin' PT 66 tonight at 8pm EST.
Note on all groups
Dear friends,
Let's kick off our LSAT Summer Jams with full gusto. Three BR groups for your enjoyment and edification this week.
Note on all groups
Wednesday, June 10th at 8pm EST: PT45
We'll start this BR cycle off right, hitting the ground running with PT45.
(s)I won't be on this call, but many others will.(/s) Just kidding, I will be there after all.
Friday, June 12th at 8pm EST: PT66
For those of us who want to be able to retake and/or drill from tests up to PT71, we will have Friday sessions to BR those later tests. This is likely to be a smaller group but open to anyone.
Note on the Friday group: Please PM me and specifically ask to be added to this one; as it's a smaller group, I won't call everyone from the bigger groups unless you specifically let me know you're up for some crazy PT66+ action.
LSATurday, June 13th at 8pm EST: PT46
Rollin' rollin' rollin'...we'll affectionately beat the snot out of PT46 on Saturday night.
Ok, folks. Let's discuss options for BR groups heading towards October.
(s)We have two matters to consider:(/s) Consideration done! Here's what we're doing:
Next week, Wednesday will be PT47, Friday PT67, and Saturday PT48, and so on, and so forth, until we ride into the Oct 3rd tests on chariots of fire.
We do have a special request to switch the Wednesday session to a Tuesday session. For this week, obviously we will be meeting tonight, but I will raise the question on the call to see if everyone is ok with this change. I'll keep y'all posted with any changes.

(Archive of original post follows)
1) Which tests to BR
My top priority is to get all the way through PT75 (June '15). I'm sure this is your priority, too. We have 34 sessions between now and September 30th if we meet twice weekly (with PT65 happening this Saturday), which should be the last group call for the Oct 3rd test.
That means we have to make a choice between:
1) Starting with PT36, making it to PT51 on August 1st, and then skipping ahead to PT59 on August 5th. That would mean we would skip tests that the group has already BR'ed (but I recognize that new people might not want to skip these tests).
2) Starting with PT45 and going all the way through to PT75. This is better for those who favor exposure to the newer tests over exposure to older tests. On the whole, this one would be my recommendation, but I want to see if others have a preference.
My question to you: Which course do we follow?
2) When to do the groups
I propose the following. Please either respond to this thread or PM me if you have strong objections.
—Every Saturday at 8pm EST (note the time change). Our sessions have been averaging around 3 hours (shorter than previous sessions) and I do not think 11pm is too late for most of the East Coasters to wrap up the call.
—Every Wednesday at 8pm EST (if we have a lot of West Coasters who work full time, we can perhaps find some wiggle room depending on how long your commutes are. I hesitate to set it any later as that would push the East Coasters near midnight by the time we finish)
My question to you: Do these days work for you?
To all who have participated or reached out to me about participating: Please make your lovely voices heard!

Hi y'all,
Quick note while I'm traveling: unless there are ardent objections, let's do the Saturday blind review group at 8pm EST this week. Many of the regulars will be absent and I know we have some new people—would the 8pm EST time work for everyone for this upcoming Saturday?
PM me with your Skype handle if you want to join. Don't be alarmed if I don't respond right away—it will likely be Saturday afternoon before I'm able to get back to everyone due to a hectic travel schedule (3 states in 4 days then back to Texas Friday night).
PT58. Be there/be square.
LSAT love from Lancaster County, PA.
If you're interested in joining please PM me or @nicole.hopkins your Skype name so we can add you to the call :)
It runs pretty smooth. All you have to do is take PT 56 and BR before the Group BR (do not check answers). During the Skype call we go through all four sections and we also go more in depth if there is not consensus or if anyone wants to for any reason.

Please note that as of July 6th, I am not updating this thread as much. There are far too many BR groups for me to keep track of. The newest BR groups will be at the top of the "Study Groups" category, here:

Please PM the author of each thread to be invited to the BR group! (Note: I am not the author!)

BR groups always active through Skype! Add nikkers625 on Skype, or PM Nicole! ( @nicole.hopkins )
Q: What happens during these BR groups?
@nicole.hopkins We go through every question in the test, in order. Where LR questions benefit from diagramming, we use a white board app (links provided during the call); we also diagram all of the LG using the same app (several people diagram since some of us use slightly different methods).
Everyone takes the PT for that week under timed/exam simulating conditions. Then, those who are able BR the whole test on their own (I am often not able to BR the whole thing on my own and it's literally never been a problem). We meet on Skype at the appointed day/time (usually 3.5 hours, give or take) and go through the whole test. It's fun and hardcore.
For a lot of us, the PT's we do are retakes but everyone benefits, no matter if it's a fresh test for you or not. Feel free to listen in sometime to see what it's like (PM me with your Skype handle).
Any BR groups reviewing PTs in the 60's? I'd love to join!
Hello is anyone looking for a study buddy in the Los Angeles area? To share notes or go over any questions? Let me know. I am free most weekdays in the morning or afternoon since I am taking time off of work to focus on studying.
Let me know! Thanks!
Hi everyone,
I felt I benefited from the last group Skype BR, and would like to do this more. Saturdays don't always work for me, though. Would anyone be interested in BRing a PT over Skype on another day, during the week? I'm flexible as to which PT, since there are lot I haven't seen and am also fine with retaking. Let me know!
Hello! Looking for someone or some people to start studying for the LSAT. My goal is to take it in November and shooting for around 170-175. I am located in SLC. So excited (and terrified).
Anyone close to Emerald Isle North Carolina for a study group??
Hi! I'm planning to take the October LSAT and would love a Boston-based study buddy if you're out there. Feel free to PM me if you're interested.
Anyone studying the LSAT in Columbus, OH? Would love to meet up and study some time. Feel free to DM me.
Here is the link to a discord study group. We are working on setting up study hours and student/self-led Q&A. https://discord.gg/bxvjqNk4
hello, I will be taking the Oct exam and was looking for buddies either virtually or in upstate NY/Ithaca who'd like to work together. I scored a 166 on the June exam and I'm striving for 170-172.
Let me know if you'd be interested/if you have any pieces of advice. (-:

I am looking to have a virtual study group for at least 2 hours tomorrow. Game plan is to work on a set of questions slowly and thoroughly, and then test what we learned with a drill set. Focus will be flaw and weaken questions!
Looking for a small group of 2-3 people, 2-4pm EST.
Happy Labour Day yall.
Hi! I just restarted my LSAT studying and law school options research. I've been preparing with a coworker, but we have a different timeline (she's taking October 2025, I'll be taking mid-2026).
I am wondering if there's already a formed group around the City, or someone is interested. I am in the Upper East Side area and work in Tribeca. I've been religiously studying before work, 6-8AM-ish, with more flexibility on the weekends.
I find it very nice to exchange parsing techniques with my colleague, and I'm a lover of community! if you're interested, please reach out: gertabarentos@gmail.com
Hiiiii! Is anyone near or around north Mississppi looking for a study partner? Message me!
Hey y'all—
This week we'll BR PT58 at 8pm EST. I will be running late so @Jengibre will start the call off.
Take the test, blind review it if you can, and join us tonight at 8pm EST.
PM me with your Skype handle if you haven't already!
Hello friends,
It sounds like 8pm EST works for folks (since we're doing the new BR cycle at that time) so I took a leap and changed the time of tonight's BR group to **8PM EST**.
1. PT65. Time it. Do it. Review it (if you can).
2. Join us at 8pm EST on Skype.
**PM me with your Skype handle**

PT47 BR Tonight at 8pm EST
Another week, another Wednesday: perfect opportunity to join our group BR session over Skype for some:
1) Fun
2) Friends
3) Facts
4) Flaws
5) Flan*
*Note: This is a BYOF or "bring your own flan" event. No flan will be transmitted through the intertubes.
LOOK AT HOW AMAZING THAT IS.
Note on all groups
