@overthistest look at your school's bookstore recommendation for their logic courses; my school used one by Brooke Moore (Critical Thinking), but it was on critical thinking versus an intro to logic (and I felt like it was written for high schoolers…
recognizing syllogism patterns in LR. I highly recommend getting a logic book (something a college class in logic would use, not something trivial without substance), you'll have lots of lightbulb moments
LR will suddenly jump out as more cookie cu…

Did you read any prep books before you started 1L (were they helpful?)? I'm starting 1L this fall and I've been reading the E&Es to try to learn terms in advance ... . Did you use LEEWS?
Thank you so much for sharing this, it is so insightful
@LoveLawJD21 my internet went out briefly also in the first break between sections - - that temporarily disconnected notice gave me a shock. So, I don't think that's the issue, esp since you didn't report it and it didn't affect your test. It's poss…
It helps to do a drill set style where you 1) read the stimulus, then 2) try to reiterate it. Do a run-through where you specifically target modifier words - look for them and take notice of them. Then try to reiterate that stimulus after that comb …
I've been reading Plucknett's A Concise History of the Common Law and I just finished Simon Schama's 3-book set of the history of Britain - which ironically as I'm now reading Kurtz's Introduction to the Law of Real Property is SO HELPFUL. There was…
what font did you use? some fonts at 12 pt are smaller than other fonts at 11 pt. Times New Roman (even though it looks awful) is really compact compared to some of the sanserif fonts. also: you can 'condense' your font to squish it a little more (t…
I use plain printer paper and fold it in half - it makes it more manageable on the desk. I usually fit two games per side, needing only one sheet. .. but I still use a no.2 as i was replicating the old test-day conditions; never imagined I'd ever ac…
I'm really worried my argument may have committed a reasoning flaw (I don't remember how I worded it and at the time , I was aware of dancing around this flaw, so as NOT to commit it .. but I'm worried about it!). I could go back and read the PDF co…
@eugene_seacabin_jr THANK YOU so much for posting this game. I just did the PT75 set (and took the test in Jan) and that last game reminded me of the newspaper game. Rocking this game section also gave me a lot more confidence in my LG score headin…
Do you have a copy of the LSAT Trainer? For me with those question types (anecdotal), reading that section (the subjective question types) and then practicing some drill-set-style questions VERY SLOWLY at first helped immensely with these subjective…
same here. Every other day; I saved the last ones also, except I did M20 a few weeks ago, have 87, 88, 89. And on review days doing timed LR sections from repeat tests. I figure this is also an endurance build for 1L's workload! Granted, at this poi…
I used GRE vocabulary resources when I first started studying and I feel that they really helped, I see a lot of the words in RC .. and LR.
I scanned the pages, digitized them, and turned that into audio files to listen to

@"mrinalini.v92" if you're able to pick up your laptop and revolve it around the room and under your desk, that works (I unplugged mine, did this, and then plugged everything back in; I think I also unplugged the usb mouse but left the internet plug…
Anyone else not seeing any time slots ... where it says "It appears the time you selected is not available. Please search again."
I can see the dates, it just doesn't show any time slots. Strange to see Monday available instead of just Sat, Sun &am…
@"Lime Green Dot" I have the login info from the January test. I signed up really close to the last day, so I'm going to just keep hitting refresh. WOOHOO that you signed up already! And shared the info
I spent all of yesterday trying to check my …
or maybe LSAC is dumping everything into the system in the order of signup, so later signups will appear is a little bit ???
thanks for the post - i already checked today and I wasn't going to check again until tomorrow. now I know to be on the loo…
Yup, that's it. It's so much easier to click the button than go through the site ... but oh-yea, test day is another issue.
Thank you so much for your experience of having used the app for test day, especially that you had a better experience durin…
As you're practicing (untimed, working to timed), fight the urge to highlight and instead slowly work to improve your memory of the passage's content. Anecdotal, but I found I used the highlighter tool as a crutch and I wasn't actually retaining/pro…
I laugh, but Planet Law School 2! The hypos helped me to better see the forest and not just a tree. I took a break to read it (and start fall prep in general) while I was moving and wowsa, I've seen such a LR improvement since I've started working f…
