Too many circled questions

Hi everyone! It’s my first post on 7sage so here goes..I just finished my diagnostic test and am getting ready to start the blind review process. I haven’t done much of the core curriculum. When I circled questions while doing the test I found that I was certain about almost none of the questions. On one LT section I have twenty questions circled. Is this too many to be beneficial? Or is this pretty typical when first starting out?? Thanks!

    You haven't even learned the basics as you stated you haven't finished the core curriculum. It's not surprising to see someone who hasn't study the test, ending up circling almost all the questions during their BR on their first diagnostic test.

    I’ve just gone by the syllabus. So I should go back and blind review my diagnostic later? Or just take my score for what it is and move on i the curriculum?

    I would recommend just take a mental note of your score, as that is your starting point, and go ahead with the CC.

    BR is an opportunity to take time and really think why the correct answer is correct, and why the incorrect ones are not. Based on your post I don't think you'll get much results from BR since you don't have the theory down yet.

    Try retaking the same test after you go through the CC, BR then, and compare your scores.

    It's good that you have a lot of questions. This is one way we learn. Take your best guesses and maybe make notes about your thoughts. Then consult the forums. One person's question is often shared by many other people. If not, please don't hesitate to ask away.

    Thanks so much! I have another question already..I’ve planned to take a year and study, but I also would like to take the lsat before spring in addition to the May 2021 test. I’m curious if it is recommended to just stick to my study schedule for the May lsat and just take the test in November or December regardless of where I am? Or is there a certain point in my studies that I need to reach before even considering taking the real test?
