Hey Wilderness, I realize this a tough time and, right now, hard to simply ignore - so you gotta make this your motivation to succeed even more on the LSAT. Many of us have gone thru breakups and have come out even better - if only to prove your ex…

Your scoring goal is very reasonable within the allotted time. If applying fall '17 (to matriculate '18) I recommend taking the June sit (more prep time, disclosed, still allows Oct retake) over Feb (undisclosed). Best:)

You're kidding, right? That was a solid decision based on what you know - rather than what you hope. What you can count on is that you will be even better prepared to earn a higher score next time. Also, plenty of people have done what you did an…

I think your question indicates a wrong approach. The reason why? IMHO the "30min rule" (or whatever pace you set) is more a diagnostic result rather than any magic technique in preparation. High scorers will finish in 30min naturally with high a…

Concur. The RCB seems written as an afterthought.

A principle is a broad rule, belief, or claim and (on the LSAT) often appears as a premise and/or sufficient assumption. Answer A simply fails to describe the economist's method of reasoning. If the economist stated a different principle (for exam…

Depends on what you mean by "practicing." You may need practice with the mechanics of developing clear diagrams and so on, but simply repeating questions vs. moving on to new ones is a false choice that won't help you improve. Rather, any benefit …

@Daniel.Sieradzki : awesome explanation! Especially how you reconciled both the instructor's and @"Cant Get Right" 's diagrams by explaining how Open Minded functions as both a necessary and sufficient condition. Brilliant.

@notwilliamwallace said: Internal Empathy AND Open Mindedness together are sufficient to guarantee Partial Understanding This seems to mix conditional logic and causation. I rather read the argument as "Internal Empathy AND Open Minded(ness) are …

@nye8870 @runiggyrun @Pacifico Thanks for all the responses. You made me think harder about this question because I still wasn't comfy with Answer D -- and I think I figured out why: Answer D is (correctly) a NA and not (as I originally viewed) a …

Thanks for the explanation! I see and agree with your reasoning why B doesn't have to be true: For Answer B to be correct, the specially formulated detergent's dissolving should have been compared to ordinary detergent rather than its performance …

-
@siheaso Depending on your schedule, plan around 8-10 timed PTs per month using the most recent tests you have. Newer PTs (e.g., with comparative reading passages) are freaking gold - do now waste them! Instead, use older PTs to practice sections,…

To address your concern, I think Answer D is "too weak" for a Weaken answer. Just because it's "sometimes unreasonable" (e.g., adopting a different code during the middle of a hurricane, following a revolution/coup d'etat, or any theoretically unli…

@heatherm93 Most folks who have taken many more PTs will tell you not to worry about a one-off. But if you're like me, best assurance is to dissect what happened and know for sure. For example, compare your PT results to your BR score. PT72 had a…
