Hi! I'm looking for people to study with a few times a week in the Connecticut area. I'm aiming to take either the August or October LSAT and am trying my best to improve to at least the mid 160's but my goal is to hit 170 as is most! I'd prefer to study in person, but online works as well. I started my journey not too long ago as I'm a graduate student studying psychology and have decided to pivot into law. Thanks :)

I have noticed that I struggle the most with Link Assumption questions, despite scoring strong on Sufficient and Necessary Assumption questions. Any advice on what to study to help curb this?

I am going through what I thought was a J curve except I haven’t recovered yet. I am scoring lower than I was when I started taking regular PTs about 2 months ago. My past few PTs have been in the highs 150s, but my Blind Review are between 168-176. Does anyone have any tips for how to close this gap? 

I am focusing on the types of questions that I get wrong but wondering if there was anything specific I could do to try to get to my BR score during timed PTs as well. Thank you!

Approaching analogy questions

Analogy questions are the one type of questions I have routinely had no idea how to approach. Even when I read the explanation I often am still confused on how you're supposed to arrive at the answer or even how it's an apt analogy. What are people's strategies?

How to Properly Drill?

I'm new to drilling. I was wondering if anyone has any advice on how to drill? How many questions should I start with, time or untimed, etc. Any advice is appreciated!

Not sure if this matters, but I got a 151, 151, and 160 on PTs. I won't be taking more PTs until I start drilling. Thanks!

Edit: I am nearly done with 7Sage's cirriculum

Edit: So I just finished drilling 5 questions, and I got 3 correct, but I got all five correct during blind review. Would the next step be to analyze each question/just the questions I had trouble with and then do extensive reasoning on my thought process for each question? I know spending time is necessary, but I'm just not sure what the most time-efficient way of doing this would be. any advice is appreciated!

hi! i've been having some trouble when blind reviewing (and in writing this post) where the text that i type will disappear or delete things i have already typed. where i'm typing also sometimes gets shifted (for example, if i go to add a sentence in the middle of a paragraph, i can just start typing before it deletes it all and moves my cursor to the last text character in the blurb).

i've been on multiple wifi networks and restarted network and nothing has helped.

I just took a PT and I am devastated. The experimental LR section was -3. Had it been swapped out, I would have scored a 163 rather than a 157. I know we can't choose on the real exam, but it is ARBITRARY here; these are not real experimental sections, and we are not given the option of a three section PT. From a mental perspective, seeing a range of possible scores would be really helpful. I know I have to go back and dig into all of the sections, which I will do. But I have to tell you that I feel like quitting right now. It sucks that my mood would be so much different if it had popped up as a 163, but that’s what’s up.

Also, what is going on with the typing field here? I had to write this in Word and paste it is. Every other keystroke is being erased, doubled, or backed up? Anyone else having this issue?

I have taken some full practice logic sections recently, and have noticed that a lot of the harder questions are near the end. Because of this, does anyone recommend starting at the end with questions and working your way to the beginning? Just curious if this is a good strategy :)

Drilling

What does it mean when I get 100% (correct) on the actual question but then 0% (incorrect) on blind review? Or vise versa. Sometimes I get down to 2 answers and feel confident about an answer then redo the question in blind review and may end up selecting the other answer.

BR on drills?

The Core Curriculum talks about benefits of BR on PTests. I've been doing it on my drills too, is that also recommended?

After three months of studying with the LSAT Trainer and other textbook-based resources, I moved on to 7sage because I heard good thing about it, but I've found myself scoring lower and being more confused on questions.

Did all of my knowledge suddenly disappear, or is the LSAT Trainer irrelevant to studying with 7sage, or am I just adjusting differently to studying on the screen?
