For LR, I assume you may not be labelling everything or identifying the conclusion in every question. If you identify the conclusion and assumptions, you should be able to easily do most questions, like strengthen, weaken, etc. Good Luck!
I highlight the conclusion in LR. RC, I'm definitely adverse to highlighting easier passages and more prone to highlighting the more tough passages, specifically science.

Hi there, to answer your 2nd question: this is something that is 100% out of your control. The time you spend ruminating over law school admissions data is time lost, never to be retrieved, that you could've spent making …

Honestly, depends on question type. For strength/weaken questions, I usually underline the conclusion and he assumptions for the conclusion. Other than that, usually just the conclusion.
OMG SAME. The only thing I can tell you is to turn off distractions and redo your first ever practice test to see growth. It's hard to get back into the rhythm and you'll have to ease back in 1 game/passage at a time.
For the people saying taking a break, honestly do what works for you. I just PT'd a 168 even though I was averaging high 150s/low 160s and I haven't stopped doing a test a day.
That being said, 80s get pretty bad in terms of LR and RC difficulty. (…
Honestly, simple sequence games shouldn't usually go beyond 6/7. There is only one game I can think of where I think it went +8 about groceries I think? If you see 9, 10+ slots, then go double layered sequencing.
For recommendations, I would recom…
Um, sequence double layering games are pretty standard so the videos should suffice. Granted, if you want to get good at them, you should probably redo PT 31? (The game with the car washes) until you're perfect.
My recommendation is to create the t…
Um... You should be in the 150s unless you still need to go over something because marginal returns usually happen from 155+ where you actually need to start getting sections either just under perfect or ok.

OMG, I'm the same way. My test is in six days and I can't even concentrate long enough to take a practice even though I've gone through 50 percent of the prep tests. Honestly, I think you should listen to some nice music and write your thoughts and …
It's not like Hofstra is a T14, and even then price should be the highest consideration if you're in debt. I would go with the cheaper option honestly.
Um... this is a main conclusion question and you seem to have that. Main conclusion questions serve 1 purpose: to regurgitate the conclusion.

yeah i was averaging in the mid 160's but dipped into the lower 160s on the most recent practice tests. Pt 85 killed me. Anyone else? RC is my hardest section. Praying for a decent RC section on this august exam.

As someone who took both the April and June flexes, I can certainly say the tests are closer to the 60s or 70s than the 80s

Yeah, if you're getting -11, that means you need to go back to strengthen/weaken/flaw question types and make those more grounded. Those types weren't as prevalent in the earlier LSATs from my study and they became wayyy more prevalent on the more r…

@agc438 I'm not sure relative to older tests hahah, but you might be right! There are a good amount of them. I'm also noticing more flaw and MSS questions in the 80s.

It might be worth reviewing the core curriculum if Strengthening/Weakening Qs are a concern. Other than that, if you are blind reviewing in-depth, you're off to a great start! Are you keeping a wrong answer journal by any chanc…

Does anyone feel that splitting usually works for double layer sequencing games at best? Half of the time I've tried to do it on a harder ordering/sequencing game, it throws three minutes down the drain.
So the "new" LSAT is only three sections with an experimental. Just go to your test and check the flex box. Afterwards, go to show results and you will see your "real" score. Hope this helps!
Yeah, anyone who says you're clearly going to remember the questions isn't being entirely truthful. I had the same concerns too but to be honest, you probably won't have the mental stamina, (or at least I don't because I'm trying to cram in one a da…
Omg I'm scoring high 150s/low 160s. How do you do it lol. It's so hard and frustrating and I'm not seeing any progress in the last few weeks besides marginal improvements. Thanks for the time for this post
