How is D right?

The hotel being at 100% capacity seems to be the right answer to me as if the hotel is at 100% capacity no amount of decorations can better this number. Upgrading the decor, and thereby price, would have an ambiguous impact on % of the hotel occupied and the profits generated.

I feel solid with LG, can always be better with LR, but oh my, RC has me. For the life of me, I cannot seem to fix my timing issues. Every time I PT or drill, I try to force myself to go faster, and I always have far too many questions left. I cannot seem to finish this damn section on-time, or anything close to on-time. Does anyone have any tips or past eureka moments where they finally found themselves at least getting close to finishing RC on time? Any help - really anything - would be appreciated.

It appears in the core curriculum it's taught there is no distinction between main point and main conclusion questions, i.e when a question asks "whats the main point" or "whats the conclusion." However, I find the "main point" questions will be a lot more general and doesn't strictly adhere to "summarize the one sentence that is the conclusion" in this argument. Am I misunderstanding the core curriculum? Does anyone agree with this observation?

I was accepted into TFA last spring and I definitely plan on serving. TFA has certain schools that allow you to defer if you are accepted into TFA for the two year commitment but typically people apply during their senior year of college so they are waiting for both acceptances at the same time. For me, I applied early as a junior so Im entering into my senior year already knowing that I will start TFA at the end of the school year. I want to apply to law school now but I'm unsure how admitting that I want to defer for 2 years would look. Do you think this will hurt or harm my chances?

Hey Sagers,

I just wanted to know if y'all practice just 4-5 star games on the side? Normally I do full sections of LG everyday. I normally go -1 or -2 but the only games that give me difficulty are those harder games. After finishing a whole section and BR do you ever just do games of harder difficulty? I feel that if I drill those difficult games it will better prepare me for new PT's or new LG sections.

What are your approaches to games besides obviously just drilling?

These 90's games are ridiculous. Should I be concerned I can't maintain my average games pt 30 and below. The wording be having me think if a dumb b!tch exists somewhere in me and comes out from time to time.

"Kurt stocks the only aisle between the two aisles the Manny stocks which are neither end aisles."

Ma'am whett????

I know that this is one of "easiest" question types (and it is really the foundation for many other elements on the LSAT) but I am missing these constantly. I do not have an issue with identifying the question type nor do I have have an issue with conditional logic (though I could practice more). I go into the choices thinking "what absolutely has to be true no matter what" and I always come down to 2 choices and pick the wrong one. This is happening consistently and are about 50% of my wrong answers on LR. Any advice?

Has anyone got an email that says that you haven't scheduled a testing time yet? I scheduled my testing time using the password reset trick before the official scheduling window opened, and my ProctorU account has the countdown to my scheduled time running, but I got this email and am wondering if anyone else got it too.

Hi, I'm curious about people's strategies with author's attitude questions. I pretty much consistently get these wrong even though they seem like the easiest questions. I am always able to rule out the positive/negative answer choices but am usually choosing between two. If I'm reading a passage where the author clearly does not believe a theory and thinks it's unsupported, choosing between "cautious skepticism" and "vehement opposition" is almost impossible. Please help!

Hello, future colleagues,

This summer I'll be finessing my personal statement and supplemental essays. I'm looking for one or two buddies who would be willing to check in every few weeks and workshop one another's writing in Zoom meetings.

I'd like to work with someone who has a similar profile as I do (3.94 uGPA, graduate degree, 3 years work experience, PTing in the 168-173 range) and who is aiming for a top 20 school.

If you're someone who gives honest, constructive criticism, and who is genuinely invested in a mutually beneficial partnership, send me a message and let's connect soon!

Hey all - taking the June Flex and I've noticed in the last few weeks that I have gone from regularly -1/-3 on LG to -5/-7. As test time gets closer, I'm making a lot of really dumb mistakes, getting angry, missing key inferences. Even problem sets that I have already done before, I am now missing questions on. Whenever I think about LG I now get this pit in my stomach. I would welcome any advice to get this train back on track, and thank you!

Hi- I have saved the most 4 recent LSAT to take before next Tuesday. Wondering what other people's strategies have been leading up to test day to ensure they are getting the right practice under timed full test conditions (rather than timed sections), without burning out

Hey all,

For those who are familiar with the infamous Newspaper articles game from the January Flex, I wanted to know if you're aware of any similar game types. When I took the exam back in January, I was flabbergasted because of the way the rules were presented. I want to practice similar game types before the June exam this weekend that way I'm best equipped.
