  • You can typically look at your BR score as your untimed potential, however timing is one of the biggest obstacles yo will face. It sounds like you took the PT and BR'ed in the same day. Typically you want to take the rest of the day off before BR'in…
  • I think that's a good amount of studying time considering you are full-time. I find it most productive to review longer than I BR honestly, I usually spend a few hours BRing then a couple days going over each LR question writing out explanations. Us…
  • I would probably just continue with the four section PT's for practice.
  • What they said! It really depends on the person. I have been studying since October with a full-time job, started taking PT's two months ago and have improved my score 11 pts (149-160). With most of my issues being timing, I think a good handle on t…
  • You're on the right path! I would say most people start out with some amount of "fogginess" when starting out with LR. Drilling and becoming comfortable with LR sections is key so keep working. Something I have found helpful to keep my mind on track…
  • I was a little nervous too but the first time I used the digital tester I liked it. I have been using my laptop (not a touch screen) to take them, so I hope there isn't too much of a difference? Mouse vs. stylus should be the only difference right?
  • @a_potato Girl, just wanted to say DAMN. Good on you for keeping to that schedule and thank you for sharing! I'm going to give it a try myself. It tough to get into but once you make it a habit you won't stop! Mentally, my routine has made all…
  • This post might help you out: https://7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/22527/should-i-quit-my-job
  • If you do not feel like you are studying as hard as you should, you should re-evaluate your approach. In the 152 range you can make huge improvements by being hyperaware of where you are lacking. Focus on one issue at a time with LR whether its timi…
  • Also, the best part about this is the moment I get done with my PT on Saturday (around 11am) I am free. I enjoy the rest of the day, I have a cheat meal and a beer. I hang out with my husband and take my dog to the park or see friends. These are tru…
  • I think these are all good suggestions, it just really depends on the type of person you are. I work full time and am lucky enough to have a job I can fit in a half hour section of LR in every day, and possibly more time depending on the day. Try to…
  • This is so encouraging, thank you. I also am pretty convinced by now that I should buy the Loophole LR. My LR issues center around timing and the questions with the most difficultly (with my nemesis being Flaw-descriptive weakening). Would you say t…
  • I think you have some great habits and it is only a matter of time. I had the same issues with the first ten questions, all I had in my head was that those are the easiest ones and I would get stressed when I got hung up on one. I encourage you to f…
  • You just want to make sure you aren't mistaking a sub conclusion for the main conclusion. I would say its best to read or at least skim the rest of the passage to make sure they don't throw you a curveball. Also if your conclusion contains referenti…
  • I am having the same problem. I have been blind reviewing each answer choice for as long as it takes to get the logic correct, hopefully after doing this for a while it will become more automatic. Re-watching videos in the CC has helped me recall wh…
