@"Law and Yoda" said: 89, 91, and 92 have comparatives. Only one I didn't see is 90 which is certainly an outlier as I believe LSAC is still keeping comparatives on the test. The third passage in 90+ is comparative. (:

@Ashley2018 It's swapping between the concept of calendar date "labels" (e.g. "Dec 31") and weekdays (Sunday-Saturday). The stimulus is suggesting that, if a year doesn't end on a Saturday, there would be some "unlabeled" weekdays between the weekd…

... I was approved but it's not ready for me either yet. ):

@teddyballgame15 It looks like RC is your worst section, and it's now technically the highest weighted section on the test. If you have limited time to study, I'd focus on RC. Getting main point / author attitude / inference questions correct is mor…

@bekabewley-1 I've used multiple study sources (including The Loophole) and I've learnt something new from each of them. A fresh take on LR might be more beneficial if you can only choose one option. Also, you'll only be scored on one LR section on…

If you have admin access, you should be fine. The program for the actual exam is called "Support-LogMeInRescue" (different from the software for the Writing Sample). You might be able to find a way to download it through ProctorU or a quick Google …

I think it’s likely also due to having to “switch gears” during a PT, whereas times sections tend to be focused on one of the three section types (if not even more hyper-focused within those section types). I’d suggest switching up the problem set …
-
Drilling one specific question type is helpful if you’ve consistently gotten that question type wrong on timed PTs/sections over multiple PTs. Otherwise, I’d “jump around” more, since you’ll have to constantly switch gears on the real test, and kno…

It sounds like that particular study guide isn’t the best resource for you. I wasn’t an English or Philosophy major, either… but I haven’t found it to hold me back from doing well on the exam. To get a better sense of what you mean, what are some o…

@Hizekiel You should diagram/map it on paper unless you can do it in your head with a nearly perfect score every time. I diagram less than I used to, but as soon as there’s a bit of doubt on a question, it seems worth the extra few seconds to write…

@jiaijaz110 said: not sure if this is what you're looking for, but something that has REALLY helped me not waste time (or energy!) is by doing the first 12/13 questions first and knocking out as many as i can there. If i don't get an answer i …

@kdionwilliams said: So, I’ve noticed that I went from -3 or -4 on LR back to -7 because I don’t use the underline/highlight feature on the digital exams. On the paper exams I could quickly underline the P and C which would help me see flaws …

@"mackay.peltzer" I agree with @st_cupertino on the "forcing [yourself] to struggle" before you look at JY's (or any others') setup. I'll sometimes redo a game with a different board that I could also see working (trying to do certain games as group…

@JulietteWest, @deadheadseb said: You can technically do charts in any grouping games, but really the only one you NEED to do charts on would be grouping games w/ repeating variables. IMO I second this. I kept switching between the two and …

@avidlsatqueen said: For those of you who had two RCs (I did too): do you think you did significantly worse on the second? My second RC passage was the one that included a GDP comparative, and it was my last section on the entire test. I act…

@"Lime Green Dot" said: Hey y'all! Just finished and had 2 RCs as well! LG-RC-LR-RC 1st RC: Winter's case/Native Americans + Don Quixote + Red light shift + GDP 2nd RC: Sentence reduction + Krauss/Universe from Nothing + Some photograp…

@rhitt19 said: Thank you No problem! Glad I could help you.

Yes, I always recommend doing (at least the RC) in LawHub. The minor changes in the interface can really build up if you've never interacted with it.

@rhitt19 said: I seem to remember JY saying in one of his videos that passages with 2 parts in RC (usually labeled part A and B ) are no longer common on the LSAT. Am I remembering this correctly? There have been comparative passages on ever…
-
@teddyballgame15 They'll make you re-login regardless, so you don't have to fire up LawHub before you start your test. (:

@"Law and Yoda" Has a good system for this and can probably expound upon it. My understanding is that you basically angle a laptop and/or set a phone on a shelf to be able to see what you're doing, and then watch back to recall what you were thinkin…

If you're hitting -9 on untimed games, you're not going to benefit from FoolProofing more recent games -- it means you're missing some common fundamentals that the earlier tests can teach you and the later tests can affirm. Make note of the game ty…

@andreaefthy I generally try to answer the question either way and figure out if one of the answers noticeably strengthens/weakens the argument. The questions posted in the answer choice tend to be yes/no answers, so for example, I would read answer…

@Constantine. Hey man! Hit me up when you get the chance. Would love to catch up.

@UCLAplease said: Whew. Does this mean anything since it's such an old test? Hitting the 99th percentile on any official PT that you haven't seen before -- regardless of its era -- indicates that you have likely mastered the fundamentals (an…

@Ashley2018 There are two separate populations: - Luggage that HAS a bomb inside - Luggage that DOES NOT have a bomb inside We're only given information on the scanner's performance related to the latter category. 1% of "luggage that DOES NOT hav…

@valuequietness I don't think anyone's suggesting not to do the full CC. They're just suggesting that you don't do all of the problem sets in a specific section of the CC in a row, right after you've been introduced to a topic -- the suggestion is t…
