Hey @akistotle ! Yes so under timed pressure, I got -6 on each LR section. For my BR, I got -5 on one section and -1 on the other section. I really want to close that gap between my actual score and BR score by the June test. What have you been doin…
Thanks @Sami! Correct me if I'm wrong but I feel like under time pressure, doing well on the LR section really depends on our intuition because like you said, we don't have the luxury of time to break down every single aspect of the stimulus. So bas…
Hey @Sami! Thanks for responding. So, looking back on my LR sections, it seems like I'm being overconfident. I made a note to myself that the next time I attempt a timed individual LR section, I would 1. actively read and spend the bulk of my time w…
I just wanted to post here that the skipping strategy is so important in order to minimize overall damage. I just took a timed individual RC section, and I didn't save any time at the end to go back to the questions I had circled. I circled 6 questi…
I'm sure a lot of people on 7sage know what you're going through (including me), and really there's no need to be upset about it! Don't let the score of a single timed individual LR section bring your hopes down. You've just begun to dip your feet i…
What @"Cant Get Right" mentioned above is called the "synthesis" portion of RC. Most people are good or at least improve when it comes to the "recall" portion, which is basically trying to memorize the details as they read, but one skill that is ind…
I'll try to provide my two cents on this. For BRing RC passages, I personally like to stand up from my chair and start going through the passage as if I'm explaining to a bunch of students studying for the LSAT how to analyze the passage. So, as I r…
Just for clarification @JustDoIt, are you saying that it's possible for a GPA of 3.94 (UVA's 75 percentile GPA) to compensate for a LSAT score of 168 (UVA's median LSAT score)? Also, are there other schools that value high GPA as well other than UVA…
I second @apublicdisplay! Make sure to BR before you check the answers. This could take up to even 6 hours by the way. Also, always BR with a clean copy.
@"Color Me Grey" Oh at some point JY is going to pop out of nowhere and paste a separate link on this discussion forum where you can go and register. But exactly "when" he will do that is unbeknownst to anyone haha. So what I meant by "refreshing" i…
@annannann Basically JY opens up the registration at a random time and whoever sees that the registration is open and signs up for it first gets one of the four spots. So, it's really all up to chance and basically refreshing the page constantly.
I agree with @akeegs92. The test is constructed in such a way to prevent test-takers from reverse-engineering by reading the questions first. If you do this, you'll get sucked into a lot of the trap answer choices that the test writers have purposef…
I'm going to take a stab here and say that my instincts tell me that the sentence is translated into EJ -> ROW. If you think hard about the actual meaning of the sentence, it's basically saying that redistribution of wealth is required to create …
"So maybe the biggest part of what I mean is when, why, and how often we are taking PTs. Think of each PT as a fully contained study cycle. The cycle should go something like:
PT
BR
Analyze Performance
Develop Study Plan
Study
Most folks take …
Doing PTs is a way of simulating the real test conditions by taking the "full exam" proctored and timed just like the test day, whereas drilling is the approach to address certain weaknesses after PTs' results have revealed them. Let's say you finis…
This sounds like a solid plan. As a fellow college student, I also know how difficult it is to balance classes and studying for the LSAT, so I have total respect for you. My spring break starts this weekend, so I'm planning on going full LSAT mode s…
Question: Is it normal to circle a lot of questions the first time you take a PT post-curriculum? I'm still in the CC phase, but I feel like I'm going to circle a lot of questions once I take my first post-CC PT. Do you have any experience regarding…
Hey! You're similar to my first post-curriculum PT score when I studied after just about a month (albeit it was with a different prep test company). My second PT was also a tad lower than my first, so I decided to join 7sage and go through the curri…
