Hitting a Wall with LG

amarlsat93

I have been working on Logic Games for about 5 weeks now and I feel like I am hitting a wall. Because I have been fool-proofing and have a limited number of hours in a day, I have only been able to get through "Introduction to Logic Games & Sequencing Games" and "Sequencing Games with a Twist."

I keep redoing old games and getting one or two wrong. This is frustrating and also unclear if it is evaluating me properly because I am definitely remembering questions that I have done 5 + times. So, as much as I try to play each game anew every time, it is hard to really do so under time constraints. When I am up against the clock, I find myself picking the answer I remember.

Do y'all think it makes sense to move on? Or keep fool-proofing?

If what you're doing doesn't seem to be making gains, don't waste your time running your head against the wall doing it over and over! Sometimes taking a break is just the thing to cure what ails you. I bet if you work on something else for a while, when you circle back to the LGs that are driving you nuts right now, you'll be amazed at how much better you've become at solving them. It's worth a try anyway. You're going to be applying a lot of the same techniques and strategies to all of the games, so every individual game (regardless of type) is training your brain to get better at LG as a whole. And if you keep working at it you will get faster and more accurate. You just will.
