Good stuff! Congratulations!

So, I think the important thing to keep in mind is that while your intuition may have served you well, you should understand why you got a particular question right. What was it, specifically, that you intuitively picked up on, and why were you able…

My advice would be to make your studying count. It sounds like you have a lot on your plate already with school and with work. Studying for six hours a day isn't going to be possible, and, frankly, I don't believe that studying for six hours a day i…

Thanks so much for the reply! Excellent tips!

Also following.

I mix it up. Typically, I take the prep test and then immediately follow up with the BR. This, for me, is usually the most beneficial. But sometimes, I take the prep test and don't BR until the next day. And rarely, if it is a very old prep test, I …

First of all, I respect the dedication. But am I the only one who thinks that studying for 4 to 5 hours each day is excessive? It sounds to me as though you may be putting in the time, but it's not necessarily time well spent. (I could be wrong!) I…

Yep. Especially with taking practice tests. "I can't fail if I don't try!" It makes no sense, but that's how my brain works.

You can upgrade at any time. I'm choosing to go through all of the core course material and seek out additional resources (books and such) before opting for the live classes -- not because I'm cheap, but because I think this will be a more effective…

That's awesome! Congrats!

Congratulations! I wouldn't be too disappointed by a 150, especially now considering that many recent test-takers have seemed to experience about a -10 point decrease on their actual test score when compared to their average score on practice tests.

That's awesome! Congratulations!

Yeah I think I understand now. The point of the prompt was to give an example of a logical reasoning flaw. The first sentence tells us that the car needs gas to run, and the second sentence comes to a conclusion that is, well, flawed. Not sure why t…

oof! Is this typical? I am wondering now how much can be attributed to nerves/anxiety and how much can be attributed to "tougher questions." Hmm!

@bmchap " said: When you say "change things so significantly," I don't think you're thinking about it in the right way. "If" always introduces the sufficient condition. The statement "my car needs gas in order to run" -- by virtue of the logic…

@JesseWeNeedToCook " said: Review what lesson this type of problem this is from. It is giving an example of flawed reasoning. You left out the part where my car needs gas to run. (assuming we found this prompt in the same place.) Thanks for …
