Just a heads up guys - I'm going to reorganize the RC part of the Core Curriculum soon. There might even be a few new lessons. Don't be alarmed if you see classes get moved around in the syllabus!

    I hope you will incorporate the low-resolution/high-resolution summaries technique in the CC.

    That's great to hear how you are still optimizing and making changes to help us! Is there any way for you to provide the old syllabus or CC layout? For some reason I'm having a really tough time trying to rearrange the study schedule since now it looks like I've done lessons out of order, and now it's thrown my weekly schedule out of whack on the study schedule.

    Hey guys, the first new batch of lessons, grouped under the "Reading Comprehension - Science" class, is already up. A few more lessons will trickle in the next few days. New problem sets will be updated in a week or so.

    After the September test and before the December LSAT we're scheduled to release the next class in the new RC curriculum, "Reading Comprehension - Art".

    Some of you have expressed concern that this changes your study schedule. Yes, it does. You can follow your old study schedule if you like. You'll have to manually skip around since some classes (i.e. lesson sets) have been moved around. And you'll have to replace what used to be called "Introduction to Reading Comprehension" with the new class "Reading Comprehension - Science".

    Or you can generate a new schedule and follow that.

    can anyone else see them i can't. i tried logging out and back in, and it is just still says

    "intro to the reading.."
    "memory method.."

    Does anyone know what the new additions are titled?

    @MichaelTheArchAngel in your syllabus it should be at the very end right after the section on "Grouping & Sequencing" games. The heading for the new RC seems to be "Reading Comprehension - Science."

    I see that part, but the content is the same as it was before, just minus the old "science video"
