@"Cant Get Right" Your assertion "that it's not the best strategy when it comes to actually executing..." I completely agree. RFS has to become intuitive, I think part of my pitfall that came from using RFS was actually looking at it as a strategy…

I concur with @"Matt Sorr" on holding off on PTing. Here is some extra support: Early on in prep, I was a bit reckless with opening and taking practice test without a true purpose behind it. Later on, when I started to reach my LSAT potential, pra…

@"Cant Get Right" Thank you for your initial response. You challenging the idea of RFS made me think of it in a more practical manner. You helped me answer my own question, this is the better than any advice!

@"Cant Get Right" I appreciate your comment. It is always good to have strategies challenged because the worst things we can do when using a strategy is either use a strategy that we did not know is flawed or use a strategy we truly do not believe i…

This is a fantastic explanation with a fantastic example! The inference questions that hit on subtle author opinions like the ones you mentioned above are what can be killers, g8 way to show that having the correct mindset can be a huge jump in unde…

If your taking the test in June, structure will be your best friend. I would do the core curriculum in order for the following reasons: 1: Because of the process of working with 7Sage throughout the early parts of the core curriculum, by the time …

Ask yourself: Are you a good reader? Business 101: To solve a problem, you must first identify the problem. Once I realized that I am not the strongest reader is when the improvements started to flood in. I started to look at reading as a skill tha…

Be patient This is the hardest truth of RC improvement. It requires an immense amount of patience relative to the time it takes to improve on the other two sections.

Get Good @ Grammar Do not assume that you have a fundamental understanding of grammar! For me, I came to realize: my inability to consistently parse out convoluted language came from a lack of understanding of some basic grammatical concepts.

Solid advice! Especially for RC and LR reading!

I am down!

Just one live session today, correct? Foundations for logical reasoning.

@"Scott Milam" Great! Thank you for the clarification.

Hi! For September 11th, there is an a 30 min overlap, on the times that showing on zoom, between the sessions “Breaking down board construction” 7-8:30 pm Eastern and “Filling in the gap” 8pm-9pm Eastern. Is that correct? I would enjoy attending b…

@"Cant Get Right" said: An algorithm could do it fairly simply, but I’m not sure if that counts for what you’re looking for or not: Represent first rule with split game boards. Working only from your prior split game boards, represen…

Start studying now or ASAP. Buy the full curriculum. Make the LSAT your life and you will get that goal score this fall. Focus on getting LG down to -2 or -3 which is very doable with hard work. You will go beyond a 160!

My view: EMBRACE! There are a lot of advantages for test takers when we use the digital format. For example, we save probably around 1-2 mins for bubbling. Spread those 1-2 mins throughout 4 sections, huge advantage! Find the positives and trust yo…

If you have not already, watch the core curriculum lessons over logic and advanced logic. This is the best thing to do early on because it lays a foundation that is required for mastery over games.

The biggest tip is to work strictly on digital in prep when drilling. Also, embrace it! Don’t fight it because we cannot change it. Find the advantages in digital. For example, we don’t have to bubble. Short answer, work as much as you can with dig…

Depends on when your test is and what is your ultimate goal for LR? All and all, if you have a very specific thing you need to work on, try to do the curriculum for that specific area of LR and utilize the explanation videos (that is ultimately what…

5-6 point fluctuations is what I experienced as well. The key is to keep working to get the fluctuations lower and lower, hence more consistent! Don’t get discouraged, you are scoring top 5%! > @lilianayearns said: Hi! So, last week I too…

@mesposito886 said: I've personally found that curiosity is a common answer choice, but not a very common correct answer. I wonder if it's because it's a fairly weak descriptor and test makers figure that writing the passage alone suggests the…

@mattwhitworth56 said: @"preston.bigley-1" okay so 1, you specifically asked how the test differs from individual to individual. 2, someone made an awesome point about how students 2nd guess themselves too much in general, which has nothing to…

@"Legallyblack-2" said: Also find all inferences on lg before you answer the questions! This is super helpful and I just started doing this not too long ago. Such a an essential part of LG, and so simple too. I sometimes feel time is ticking…
