@"Jonathan Wang" has agreed to have an LSAT chat with us and answer our questions! Think of it as "Jonathan's millennial-friendly nondenominational block of time". Don't miss this awesome chance to learn from his expert advise and ask questions. Please write the questions that you'd like Jonathan to answer in the discussion below.
Don't miss out on this
Do: Ask general LSAT questions like--- "What are 3 common mistakes people make when studying the LSAT and how can we avoid them?" or "What are some ways we can get better at RC?"
Don't: Ask specific case study questions like---"I have a 3.99 gpa and a 168 LSAT score, what are the chances I'm going to get into Columbia if I apply next week at 22:00GMT?" --_-- Please don't do that. In efforts to maximize everyone's time those types of questions will be skipped.

Thanks @nessa.k13.0 & @"Jonathan Wang" for setting this up:) Really looking forward to it!!
(ps - Love the gif's!)
Since I started studying LR and LG have improved while RC has stayed the same or gotten worse. When I try to deliberately (consciously) try to focus on reasoning structure it seems the opposite happens - I start to focus on the details. What are general tips or what is the general mental state one should have going into RC passages?
Can I join the June study group or is it too late?
Not too late! Nessa will squeeze you in asap
For folks who have already gone through the core curriculum (so for people who aren't brand new to LR), what are some common issues/mistakes in tackling LR?
Do you think there is a universal approach one should utilize while working through an LR question?
We've talked briefly about pre-phrasing answer choices on discord. How important is pre-phrasing, and what would you do if you were unable to come up with a pre-phrase? Skip or go to the answer choices?
Any advice on getting better at creating pre-phrases?
Stimulus or question stem first and why?
@cskent329 I'll add you to the list!
@twssmith NP (don't tell anyone but I think Jonathan is secretly a sweet educator
Thanks @jknauf @RafaelBernard and @Walliums for your questions! I've added them to the list!
@Jessica_Kuba this is what I was talking about
@nessa.k13.0 you're secret is safe with me, heehee
If we have time for a specific question - I understand the answer and process for PT62,4,18 - any advice on strategy to tackle this type of question when under timed conditions? (after skipping, of course)
edited to add: the Sentient Being existing question
@nessa.k13.0 hi Nessa! question i'd like to ask in the webinar: i got used to an early morning schedule (doing questions by 8:30am) while preparing for a December lsat exam, but now that I'm preparing for the June exam which starts at 1pm-ish, do you think it'd be a good idea to try to "start" everything/PTs closer to1pm, instead of early morning? i tried it out but just felt slightly terrible about wasting the morning not doing questions until noon.
@"maple sarahp" got it
