Thank you David! Super informative, cannot wait for the next one... I've been re-tooling my personal statement during the entire meeting, so many good prompts to build off of !
My biggest break during my 7 months of prep was close to 3 weeks, followed up later by a day or two here and there as I felt they were necessary. I took one more week off a couple months out as well. They pay off, once you take the break and come ba…
Three-sentence biography.
My name is Addison, I am the oldest of two children, first in my immediate family to attend university and I did in 2009 because I felt I had to, and I'd been accepted into a highly selective program out of high school. I …

Before you even look at the answers, you must identify what the flaw is.
Once again, Cant nailed this one,100%, especially the part about skipping!
My biggest improvement with this question type came from exposure, the mo…
I remember a week near the beginning of the curriculum where I felt absolutely awful. I had to tap out and sleep more after work and my studying took a back seat.
Sometimes giving yourself a break is necessary, have you made room for breaks in your…
What has been said about games being the easiest to make massive gains with is true. Also, I found them challenging enough that my desire to conquer anything the LSAT could throw at me was huge motivation.
I looked at it like this, whatever happens…

Do not give up! Keep grinding, you can raise that 144 dramatically if you keep at it... You will succeed so long as you persist!
Pushing back to 2018 isn't the worst thing in the world, especially if you want to apply with the strongest possible L…
Finding a routine that works for you is the best bet. Don't forget to mix in breaks... If you're sitting for that entire 3 hours, of course by the end you'll feel like mush!
Developing the routine will take time. Once you've built your good study …
I second the comments about becoming familiar with questions, and skipping!
When I sat the test in June, there were a couple harder questions where I'd seen the blueprint so much before that it was a gimme.
Skipping and the reasons for it, cannot…
Thank you so much for the feedback everyone! Wow, @"Cant Get Right" Yale down eh? That's inspiring, I will certainly apply to a couple Ivy League Schools now, I hadn't even considered it before.

Have you watched the logic games webinars? They are extremely helpful. Also, it's all about practice. If you're really stuck, you need to work through those 10 copies of a game! Time yourself with it, blind review it, watch JY do it, and if you're n…

Anyone have input on this?
I feel like there's been a lot of input throughout the forum, just have to sift through the threads to find it!
@"J.Y. Ping" thank you! I will, hopefully @BruiserWoods is going to as well!
169... I'm happy that I hit my avg and it's still wayyy better than I thought I'd do after the diagnostic... 19 points to be precise. But c'mon, (-1) LG and after I saw a question in LR1 that I'd had correct and changed... couldn't look at my other …
I don't plan on needing this, but if it turns out that I do, I'll certainly make use of it!
Looking back on my prep, BR was something I didn't truly get into a good rhythm for until my last 6/11 PTs. That being said, this'll be great for newcomers…

I started really letting the analytics guide my prep from there to shore up any weaknesses.
This helped me, so I would recommend it as well

Any tips on how you would suggest others approach those type of questions that would be helpful for their studies & PTs?
Draw it out, draw out every answer choice until you find the one that matches; tbh, I treated th…
My approach was simple and repetitive. I made cue cards with all of the quantifiers and their translations on the back, e.g. "Some, 1-100" "Unless, negate sufficient," "Cannot, negate necessary," etc, the groups with their members and translations,…
If it's a clear structure, I would map it out right away. I mean, mapping it out involves re-reading it to an extent. Now, when there's a confusing, mixed up Ctx, C, P1, MP, P2 and whatever else they may throw at you, it's worth reading again.

I had one where I blew my first two takes before I was ready!

I had another one where I studied for almost a year and burned through the bulk of the PTs without BRing a single one of them
