I am having a hard time finding out exactly what room my test is going to be administered in. I'd really like to try to take some prep tests in the room before the test date, so it's kind of stressin' me out. Can anyone help me out?

FYI I'm taking it at U of Toronto St George campus. Test centre 0980

with the thousands of law schools in the US it is impossible to go through each one and determine if they meet all my needs and if i meet theirs. is there a website with credibility that i can go to, put in what i am looking for in a law school and they give me a list of schools that have what i am looking for.

currently using law school transparency and have determined my number one choice but i need other options. what are you using?

Website asked us to check availability of admission ticket on June 11th for the June 29th test. That's pretty late. Is it normal? I believe they usually issue the ticket at least a month in advance. Shall I worry about it?

Blind Review Question

This might be a dumb question, but if you are blind reviewing do you time yourself when you are redoing questions? Also, are you erasing/making a copy of questions so that your previous work is not there? Finally, do you blind review entire tests sometimes? or are you are only to BR the questions you marked, got wrong,etc?

Thank you in advance for the assistance :D

Necessary assumptions

good morning all ,

hope your Easter was fun!!

NA-they are kicking my butt!

negating the right answer usually will get me only a few correct but for the most part it confuses me.

when approaching necessary assumptions my mind reverts to Sufficient assumption techniques because I don't have a clear understanding of how to attack necessary assumptions.

what approach did you use , or how did you overcome necessary assumption questions?

help me my fellow LSAT warriors !

Copying game boards used to stress me out a little bit because of the numbering. Every time I copied a game board (which could be 4 or 5 or even 8 times possibly?) I knew I needed to copy over the numbering (1 2 3 4 5 6 beneath the spaces), but found it very time consuming. My way around that is 1. using roman numerals instead of numbers. They are a lot quicker. 2. only marking slots 3 and 5. I borrowed this from the guitar fretboard, where only select frets are marked. You are told which is the 3rd and 5th fret, and from that it's plain to see which is the 2nd and 4th etc. This made copying game boards just a LITTLE bit faster, which made logic games just a LITTLE bit less stressful.

Efficiency 8-)

This is what I don't understand how answer B can be eliminated, "the manufacturer's instructions for assembling a product should be written in such a way that most CONSUMERS would find it much easier to put the product together" answer choice B says that someone OTHER than the consumer will assemble it for them, therefore, the suggestion does not apply because the consumer themselves do not have to assemble the product, so weather the instructions change or not the subject of the argument is not affected and therefore irrelevant, making answer B ideal. Am I over analyzing this too much or what?

help me obi-wan, your my only hope...

PT 65's LR Sections harder?

Hey everyone,

So today I wrote PT 65, and I was a writing the second LR section, I thought to myself that it seemed considerably harder than usual. I was just wondering if anyone else thought that? The first LR for PT 65 I went -6, but the second section nailed me and I went -11. I felt like a lot of the answers were very difficult to read and understand (more than usual) and that a lot of the answers were very difficult to distinguish between two answer choices. Clearly I need to work on my LR, but looking to see if it was just a fluke and that it was reasonably more difficult or if I really do need to improve THAT much more.

Do NOT erase, cross out.

J.Y. has repeatedly told us not to erase in the LG section but to cross out, especially when we are making our game board.

I'm a notorious eraser and wanted to know why its bad to erase?

Does this take up more time for me? I don't want to cross out bc I'm nervous I will look at what I had crossed out under pressure.

The erasing thing has been bugging me all week and wanted to know why we should erase what so ever.

Reading Comprehension

Hi everyone!

How do you guys approach Reading Comprehension and what improvements have you seen on that section? Last month I did well on it, scoring 24/27 a couple times in a timed full test. Last 2 or 3 times I did a full 4 or 5 section timed test, I scored -8 or -9 on RC, which is bad enough. But just now, I did 2 timed readings (cause I fell asleep in the middle of the reading the third passage), and I got like 3/7 on each LOL. WTF is happening?! I know being tired is a factor, but I was fully awake during the first passage I read, and then the third one about osmoregulation killed me. help :(

I still don't understand why D is wrong and E is the right answer.

I don't see why E is related to widespread use part. The reason why I chose D is "taking larger-than-prescribed doses" and "be fatal" part.

Can "taking larger-than-prescribed doses" be "widespread use" and "be fatal" be "could be dangerous" which the stimulus says?

Can anyone enlighten me why D is wrong and E is right?

Thanks!

NEW PREPTESTS

Hi all, just hoping for some of your opinions. I have lots of preptests already (all up to #62) and I am wondering if these are enough to practise off or should I ignore these and purchase "newer" tests? Theres not a lot of time left before June and I would like to study as effectively as possible and I can't do all of them, at most I think I could do 10-12.

What are you doing?

=D THANKS

Taking notes

Just wondering guys do you take notes, as you go along the lessons, or do you just solely concentrate on lesson itself and if needed just re-read/-re-watch it?

Help if Member.

Hi!

So there are 23 days left until the June LSAT.

I have been scoring around 160-165 on PTs.

Do you think this website will help me raise my score 5+ points? I'm not sure if an investment in the online class is worth it if it won't help increase my score significantly.

Thank you!

the June test is right around the corner. i'm still doing horribly in sequencing games. still not being able to make the inferences i need to in order to score better. what are your methods to improve this. i try to drill without looking at the video explanations, so that i can recognize patterns and gather inferences on my own but it doesn't seem to be working. advice please?!?!?!
