Study buddy and need help with logic games. Can anyone meet?

Hello everyone!

So I've taken three prep tests -- two I did all four sections and another I just did 3/4 sections. My current scores have been 141 (all four sections), 148 (all four sections), and 145 (three sections). I've noticed that on all three tests I get the lower difficulty questions right but I miss most if not all the harder difficulty questions. So I'm not sure how I should approach my studying. Should I just drill non-stop the harder difficulty questions? Should I prioritize the question types I get wrong most often according to the PrepTest analytics? Any advice would be very much appreciated!

Study buddies near 76549 or 71601?

I am currently studying the test untimed.

I usually do one LG section and one RC passage on day 1 and one LR section and one RC passage on day 2. And i repeat that everyday.

My LG is -1 ish

My LR is -8 ish

My RC is -8 ish.

These are untimed.

I don’t mind the score range as long as we are able to talk about the test and share thought processes.

Hiii comrades! Wondering if anyone wants to collaborate on editing/proofing personal statements. I am currently in the process of drafting mine, and am thinking how helpful it would be to be able to share it with a few people and get feedback as I go. In my mind I am picturing a sort of book club, where maybe each week we rotate "partners". With your partner of the week, you would share a google doc version of your draft so far, and according to preference, either just make comments/edits on the doc, or even do like a FaceTime/zoom session where you could discuss as you read each others/brainstormed etc. If you're interested, lob a comment, and ill start figuring out a way to organize us with a google drive or something similar (:

#HELP For some reason V2 will not allow me to print the drills I have been doing. Can anyone help with this? #Admin

Does anyone know whether Lsat is going to be remote too for 2024-2025 cycle or not? Thanks

the argument says that Neanderthals probably preserved their meats by smoking it, citing that burnt lichen and grass were found in many of their fireplaces, and that a fire made of these materials produces a lot of smoke, but not as much heat or light as a wood fire.

the correct answer is B. When I read the explanation, it says that B is correct because it suggests that Neanderthals used lichen and grass out of necessity rather than specifically for smoking meat. The explanation also says that the point of this argument is that Neanderthals used lichen and grass only to smoke meats.

But that is NOT how this argument is written to me. To me, the argument says that the only way Neanderthals preserved their meats was by smoking it, citing burnt lichen and grass in fireplaces, that burnt lichen and grass fire produce a lot of smoke as evidence. So I chose A, which suggests that they also used heat, which is ruled out in the last sentence in the argument.

I do not understand, for the life of me, how the main idea of this argument is that Neanderthals used lichen and grass primarily to smoke their meat, and not that smoking their meat was the only way they preserved it!

Is it me????? Every time I think I make headway on these questions, I get them wrong and it's so discouraging.

Admin Note: Edited title. For LR questions, please use the format: "PT#.S#.Q# - brief description of the question."

So I was watching the explanation on 7sage and the person explaining the game said that 1-5 was one game board and 6-10 was another, but idk how they knew to split. someone please advise.

I picked C initially but I am confused as to why and how A is the correct answer and how that information could be deduced?

Admin Note: Edited Title. Please use the format "PT#.S#.Q# - brief description of question"

So, I can identify the conclusion and the support for the argument, but I'm having a hard time understanding the relationship between them. For some of the questions I can intuit the answer, even if the connection isn't clear, but for other questions, namely the ones that have a lot of background information, or more than one premise, or has two arguments, for example

city official: ....

police chief: ....

Once I identify the argument, I get stuck trying to make sense of what I'm looking at, and then I fail to understand the answer choices well enough to eliminate the wrong ones or recognize the right one. What usually happens is I get down to two answers, either the right one and the wrong one, or two wrong ones. For the latter, I cross out the right answer thinking it's wrong, and for the former, I choose the wrong answer even though the right one looks right but I don't understand why it's right.

I do go in and look at why I was wrong, and it usually makes sense, but it's like it's not sticking, and it's really frustrating to keep making the same mistake. For very question I get wrong on an LR section, at least one of them is from the assumption family.

I'm using Khan Academy to do drills, and for strengthen/weaken questions, I can't get less than 2 wrong, or even get the all right at the advanced level.

I really want to master this test. I'm aiming for a 165 at least, 170 at most, but I can't defeat these harder questions.

Can someone please help?

Bonjour!

Long shot BUT:

I am currently living in Paris and would like someone (or even a group) to study with. If anyone else happens to be in Paris at the moment message me here and we can figure out a time and place to meet!

hello! i am having major last minute application anxiety…i didn’t double space my personal statement on two applications and am now freaking out because i don’t remember if it was a requirement. i believe i would have noticed since i noticed it in my most recent application and formatted accordingly, but now i am horribly second guessing myself. should i contact the admissions offices and ask if they would like me to resubmit the statement? what would you do? :(

Hi all! Anyone else also working full-time while studying on the side? Looking for committed study buddies. Generally available post-6PM on weekdays and all day on weekends. Shoot me an email if interested!

Are the prep tests that don't include LG not printable like the ones that include LG? I click printable and it doesn't take me to a different screen like the other tests. Help plz

let me know!!

I'm planning to take the LSAT in August 2024. I've been using the V2 platform and I am fairly through many of the LR lessons and the foundation courses. I plan to move onto RC in May. I am planning to finish off that section and between end of May and August hammer out as many prep test as I possible can to prepare myself for test day. Mainly for studying purpose right now, I drill and complete the lessons.

I'm feeling a bit insecure about my plan and I am curious to know if anyone else who is taking the exam after June has been completed any of the prep test yet and if so, would you suggest to begin doing them now?

We noticed that a lot of our buttons and icons have gone missing making it very difficult / impossible to navigate through some parts of the site like the Drills and the Lessons pages. We're tracking down the issue right now and hoping to get it fixed asap.

Sorry about this! I'll update as soon as I have more information!

Update

We've found a fallback solution, and we're deploying it now. We estimate that the fix will be live in about five minutes. The site will still have a variety of visual oddities, but it will be functional.

The issue was caused by an outage from our icon provider, and it won't be resolved completely until they fix things on their end.

Thank you for patience!

Update 2

Solution is deployed! Drills, PTs and the Curriculum should be functional now (though they may still look a bit funky). Let us know if you are still experiencing issues.

No check marks or show results button on the drills it is making the syllabus unworkable wtf

Hi, I was working through the curriculum today with no problems but a few minutes ago the green checkmarks and stars disappeared from the v2 syllabus and I couldn't click "Blind Review" or "see results" on the drills. Anyone else having this problem?

Yep me too

using MacBook 2017 w 13.6.6 and am having trouble with the Drilling user interface on both Safari and Chrome. I can't see the difficulty rating or the add question button for any problem, and then when I create a problem set, I can't see the next previous, or finish buttons that usually appear in the bottom right hand corner.

I need help my account is showing like checks showing what I've completed on the syllabus and on the drills and problem sets it isn't showing like timer, any of the options in the top right hand corner with customizable options. I hope I explained that well enough. But I wanna know how to fix it because it's making it hard to use the website.

How do you check answers after completing the blind review? I don't see where you can submit the reviewed section and receive feedback.

Took a drill today and noticed the drilling setup has seemingly changed. Has the feature been removed that allows one to click the x to the right of an AC to eliminate?
