I am taking the LSAT in October, but I am still struggling with the logic games. What are the best advice on how to get better in this section. I am not doing well at all.
If you do an LG section or two per day from now until the October test you will have time to do every game from 1-35 at least once and should have a much better grasp of things heading into the exam. You only have another week or so to cancel or postpone so you really need to lock those LG skills down.
Don't lose hope! LG was never a strong point for me! I second @Pacifico ! Do 1-35, print out at least two copies per game.. print more, until you can do them correctly without watching the videos..
I did 1-35 once (had to watch videos for every other game!) right before the June LSAT, ended up postponing the exam. In prep for Oct LSAT, I recently did 1-35 again (mostly WITHOUT videos & without having memorized answers).. amazing how much faster I was at making inferences between rules / diagramming!
Now I am going through PT's.. and I am really amazed and in shock with how I don't need to watch any of the videos anymore unless I feel like I didn't make all the necessary inferences to get through the games faster.
just keep doing them until the inferences come natural. I've done 200+ game sections. Make sure you do them timed and BR before reviewing the answers. When i BR i write out all possible game boards and different methods. This combination has really helped me excel at LG.
