For what it's worth, I scored 5 points under my average on test day because of lack of sleep and burnout. So you would be doing yourself a huge favour by not doing that many PTs, and taking a break here and there. It's something that I wish I did.

For Ontario based schools, everything is due November 1st. It's best to tell your LORs that you need them to mail it by the 28th, to give a bit of time to get to OLSAS.

Slow down a bit. I used to get so focused on running out of time, however when I would do sections without looking at my watch, I noticed I always still made time. Constantly analyzing your watch leads to nothing but anxiety, which can hinder your …

This is very informative. Thank you for this. One thing to mention too is that a lot of the 2nd tier schools focus heavily on your GPA in your last two (L2) years of school. For example, it's become apparent that Queen's has started to look primar…

I did 40 PTs. Got my goal score or over on 37 of those PTs. Test day, I vastly under preformed. Nervousness is a thing, anxiety is a thing, sleep deprivation is a thing, burnout is a thing. For example. I just did a fresh and timed RC section. We…

I'm pretty sure I got that question, but it took me a while. People seemed to misread one of the rules, but for me I found the stimulus itself to sort of be convoluted. Needless to say that question took me a lot of time to do. Any inferences you…

I'm not sure about the deadline, but I know there's a window for requests after the scores are up. So personally I'm just waiting for my score.

I too changed a bunch of answers, but i'm not too worried. If anything you can pay the LSAC to hand grade it (which I will be doing solely because I had a bad experience with scantrons in undergrad). So I mean an LSAC rep will be reasonable. Say y…

I would just retake them. Make a note on the questions that you remember the answer to, and adjust your final score based on how you see fit. I usually subtract 2 or 3 points from my retake score, depending on how many questions I remembered

@djkrd92 said: the Same test layout, felt the same about each section, remember the hissing question. I got shrek'd by that LR section. I honestly felt it was harder than normal. Please LSACgod be the experimental section. My entire score is rel…

@harrismegan said: the Feel the exact same. After the 1st section I had two LR's back to back before the break. Both were 26 questions, and the one before the break was, at least in my opinion, very challenging. I hope that was the EXP, because …
-
@wong.awt said: exp What do you mean by 2 questions on one prompt? Like a single page had only two questions on it? There's been some PTs with 2 questions on one page before (ie. PT02). All I know is that one of my LR sections had like 4 of the s…

From looking at other forums, a lot of people who consistently PT well felt that it was fairly difficult in one respect or another. Hopefully the curve is favorable. I'm predicting a curve just like PT 71, as I felt the test resembled that one fai…

I feel so weird. Particularly about 1 logical reasoning section. Needless to say, I just booked my December rewrite. Hoping that it doesn't have to come to that, but I know for a fact I only under-preformed because I got 3 hours of sleep last nigh…

Thank you for the words of encouragement. I got 166,165,165,164 on my last 4 preptest, but today I got a 160 flat. Really discouraging, what do you recommend I do?
-
I always put it before my worst section (RC).
-
You sound exactly like me. It was all sunshine and jager shots for weeks. Would get either 164, 165, or 166 on every preptest. Then, burnout came. My scores just started getting shrek'd. Like I would either JUST hit 160, or sometimes dip under. "H…

Honestly there's no 'sure fire' way of doing Reading Comprehension. For me, I just had to drill various methods until I found one that worked consistently. For me, I look at the questions, write all of the "author/passage suggests" variables on the…

Sorry to come in and hijack this thread, but I have this watch with the colored sections. Can I use that on test day? http://lsatwatch.webs.com It says LSAC approved as of 2014, but nothing's changed drastically since then, right?
-
Ahhhh, I feel like it might be burn out too. I normally study 4 hours in the morning and 4 at night, but two nights ago I took the night off to combat my burn out. It seemed to work... until my recent PT score haha. I guess I just fear that it's no…

Hmm, I'm just sort of wondering if it's even worth explaining and getting the documentation. Like my cumulative isn't THAT bad, but there is a huge jump between my first two and last two which is explained by this. Just don't know if it's even wort…

I literally did nothing but logic games for 3 weeks, and was able to get up from -10 to an average of -1. However, you should always keep up with your skills once they're acquired. I made the mistake of not practicing logic games for a bit, and sa…

For me it was just a combination of trying different methods. The past week i've been doing nothing but drilling RC with different annotation methods. At first, I was writing down 10 word summaries on the side of the paragraph. I'd get -1 or -2 on …
-
It depends on how you've been studying, really. My diag was around a 143, and my first PT was a 160 on the dot. I'm mid-160s now. That being said, starting doing preptests. Doing them has helped me comprehend the material so much. My score may onl…
-
Ok, I will try that! Hopefully, in doing so, I can raise my RC score another point or two come test day. Thanks again!
-
Awesome, thanks for the advice! When BRing RC, should I re read the entire passage again as if I was going through it for the first time? Or should I just read my annotations?
-
By patterns in structure, do you mean sort of being able to predict where the author is going?
-
I was also getting perfect on all of the logic games sections from PT49 to PT 55. Then for 55 and 56 I got one wrong, and noticed that they were harder. So it seems that it's not always the case that they will be that easy, but they're definitely e…

Thank you everyone for the responses
