1. If my blind review gives me the same answer for a question, as the first time around, do I still enter the same answer under blind review under "LSAT Analytic"? Eg: if I picked C during timed test for a question, circled the question because I'm not sure, then in the blind review, I still think C is right, do I mark C as my blind review answer, even though it's the same answer as before?
2. Would someone help me understand what's the reason to do blind review BEFORE you check your answers? My question is that if you do blind review before check the answers for the questions you got wrong, won't that reinforce wrong thinking? Please let me know if I'm missing something here.

Also, it is imperative that you do not check your answers before BR, otherwise it would not be blind. If you know what questions you got wrong, then it will be much easier choosing from four ACs versus five. If you check your answers first, you are not blind reviewing, you are just reviewing and it's pretty useless. You actually want to be biased towards your original selection during BR because it forces you to humble yourself and really dig in to analyze the reasoning or argument structure.
2. WELL. I have gone back and forth on this. The fact is that if you know you got a question wrong, even if you don't "know" what answer you initially chose, you will probably remember which one you chose and eliminate it in the BR process. Hmm. Not really getting at the heart of the matter, by having even a vaguely-remembered wrong answer choice eliminated right off the bat.
It's tough, but we gotta be strict if we really want to improve.
