TOTALLY JUST MY OPINION: Official 140 scorer two years ago. Official 163 scorer from this FEB. Taking into account your score, the fact that we have a sample size of 1 practice test, and the fact that you scored approximately the same in each sec…

Look at your LSAT score as a reflection of what your current state of mind is. What I mean is this: All your other application materials (GPA, letters of rec, resume experiences, etc) are phantoms of your past, whether good or bad. The LSAT shows th…

That's a 13 point increase, no? A 13 point increase in 6 months, especially when starting at below the 10th percentile, could be cause for celebration. To put it another way: You're on track to make a 136 ---> 162 in JUST one year. In which ca…

From what I'm gleaning from their language, LSAC could keep the current AR section for non-visually impaired individuals and simply have an alternative section to swap in for the standard AR section for visually impaired people.

I took a look and got the correct answer, although slow (2 min). Here's what I came up with, feel free to disagree with my reasoning, maybe I was right for the wrong reasons: (things in parenthesis are my internal monolog and shorthand) Sid's argu…

In my opinion: It does not matter, homie. Cut your losses and focus on other problems. I've gone over most published LR questions at least once, and this one is an extreme outlier.

If I'm understanding your question correctly: RE: When splitting boards, and when you have an MBT question for example... do you choose the answer that is based off of both split boards? Split boards represent possibilities from the main game (dif…

I won't say you're not dyslexic. Maybe you are. However, the LSAT is written in such a way as to actively disrupt your thought patterns regardless of if you're dyslexic or not. You can sure as hell bet that if you get lost or confused within a porti…

It's unintuitive to call SAs SAs, in my opinion. Depending on your internal monolog, it may be easier to make a pet name for SA questions (maybe something like guarantee questions) and totally remove the "assumption" idea completely. In that case, y…

You ain't gon' be learning anything new enough to make meaningful impact on your test result. But I ate around 5 donuts starting around 9 AM and concluding once I finished my test, making sure to eat one during the break as well. I scored my persona…

In my opinion: Him dreaming bigger (X) than (compared) simply emulating two people (Y) is not possible. (mutually exclusive) You're comparing possibilities, one is 100% and the other is 0%. OR For the statement to work, I think it would have …

LSAT forums, this one included, generally trend very optimistic and/or very non confrontational in their answers when you ask them these types of questions. Sure, it could be OK. But the short answer is that your plan is probably a very bad idea. A…

I think there can be a situation where it's good for someone to register for and take the test even though they think they're not ready (you're allowed multiple attempts after all). Why? Because maybe it could produce some motivation or give you a w…

Yes. Closed laptop. External monitor. External Webcam.

Do not assume the proc will know anything. Download the accom. statement PDF from your LSAC profile (the document that shows what you've been approved for) and have it ready to show the proc. It's your responsibility to advocate for yourself if the …

I've legit spent a whole day on a single LG. If you're starting out without many of the mental tools for LG then I think taking a long time for each game can be very beneficial. It was for me at least.
-
Sure, it's possible. Personally, I went from 141 to 158 with the most recent test. HOWEVER, for me, it took longer than 1 month FOR SURE.

Some things that have helped me a little. You could maybe give it a try if you want: Try doing a blind review in real time. As in, time yourself doing the question, answer the question, stop timer, review your current confidence level of your corre…

Thanks for the post. I was just wondering this myself, but I'm in the other boat. My Degree is higher than cumulative.

@sarakimmel said: That’s all looks right except for 1 proceeding 2. Thanks for your response! I think I was mixing up "proceed" and "precede". Would "1 is preceding 2." be correct? I also added a "proceed" section. Does that look correct?…

Great suggestions here. If I could add anything that has not been brought up, I'd suggest to look into getting a diagnosis from a DR and then applying for accommodations if you have not done so already. I understand that may be anxiety inducing in i…

@rgs42250 said: I had no idea!! I want to thank you! I reached out to them and I have been given 151% additional time!!! I was under the impression 100% was the highest you can get!!! I am blind and have MS, so that helps. I'm in a situa…

@Ravinder Please send me one as well if you're able to. Thanks!

@mattwhitworth56 said: I think the LSAT hasn't done enough to level the playing field for people from disadvantaged socioeconomic communities and that they think they can get away with this by adding in more diverse names in the LG section. Fi…

I started @ 141, or maybe it was lower I don't remember now. That was 2 years ago. With on and off study since then I've gotten to the 160 range. My experience has been that logic games are the easiest place to gain points (not EASY, just easier tha…

@Alissalee said: Hi, it's not a silly question at all. The "no" in the front of the second person's stimulus is just an indicator that they disagree with SOMETHING that the other person said. It could be the premise or it could be the conclusi…

If I'm doing a timed section or timed PT then it really depends what my gut tells me. There's 3 options, right? Start from scratch, continue while making the adjustment on the fly, or just go to the next game and come back if it seems like the overs…

Thanks for the explanation, but I'm thick headed and I'm still not understanding completely. If I could ask another question? For example: Let's say a single LR question has a question difficulty of 1/5 bubbles (aka easiest) and also has a "Psg/Ga…

I think .. Goal: Find argument, then select the most useless info for that argument main conclusion: Any person [ever] should use low watt because (premise): low watt cost more AND have huge advantages Give each answer a rank, 0-5. 5 is very use…

In my opinion: 1) Define Game Type: Necessary Assumption: Choose an answer that, when presented into the argument in its negated form, will destroy the argument. 2) Reduce argument The chairperson of Acme Corporation has decided to move the comp…
