  • I am very interested if the offer still stands!
  • Have you considered reaching out to a UCI student ambassador? Ambassadors usually provide some decent perspective but can be a little biased depending on who you talk to.
  • @"Mary - Student Service" said: @"Johnny Tsunami" Yes, you can adjust the time by tapping on the clock icon on the Digital Tester. You can then select either time accommodation, 1 min/ques, 35 minutes, Target Time or Unlimited time. See the sa…
  • Thank you so much! Did not expect to be rewarded and really grateful for it!
  • Congrats thats huge! Will be sending you a PM for sure
  • I'd love to join! Im also trying to improve LG and RC. I'm an international but super flexible with timing.
  • Score plateaus are very common and normal. Im going through one right now actually! What are your average scores for the sections? Are they pretty samey across the board? LG seem to be the easiest to improve upon so focusing on that and drilling s…
  • I am not entirely sure about Canadian law admissions but I have spoken to US law school admission departments about this topic. I have been writing a few personal statements centered around my reason for wanting to be a lawyer and, like you, I want…
  • @abeerasajid119 said: Hello, What is your LSAT goal? If its's 160, then you just need to get 18 questions right in all sections. Try to look at the bigger picture of the passage. Suppose, if you have to explain this passage to your little…
  • @maryannmntg33 said: Maybe you could try Spreeder, if 7Sage's lessons are not helpful? That may help you retain more when you speed read. If you sign up for the free emails from Graeme from LSAT Hacks, on day 4 he gives you his rules for h…
  • @Juan23vr said: you should youtube search 180 minimalist his approach is helpful and addresses issues beyond methods and techniques that could be helpful Thank you for bringing the channel to my attention, its awesome! Also been looking at h…
  • Each person is different but I'm sure you can do it. LG is the easiest section to improve on and you can do so by really focusing on doing the foolproof method - repeating the same logic games that give you trouble over and over until you can pretty…
  • @AlexgLSAT The 90s are a bit easier, as well as some of the 70s. I'd give PT91 a shot and go from there, especially since you're a month away from the real test. If you want a challenge (ideally 2-3 weeks before your real LSAT) do PT 88-89. Save…
  • Awesome thanks @AlexgLSAT. Do you know if any of the more recent ones have been any easier? Definitely trying to get comfortable with these as they are daunting and taking a little more time out to really dig in deep and figure out what I can improv…
  • In addition to what the others have said, I definitely recommend the foolproofing method, where you just repeat logic games that give you difficulty over and over again until you can pretty much do it from memory. It trains you to make inferences wh…
  • It could also be that you're just not used to the prep tests. How many have you taken? You need to develop a comfort with it and testing anxiety is a huge factor. Best way to tell is to compare your timed and BR scores. If the BR is pretty good then…
  • Congrats, thats amazing work! Ive got a few questions for you: did you have any issues with timing and if so, how did you go about resolving it? Also when did you start seeing your biggest jumps in score and how many PTs did you take?
  • It sounds like a classic case of test anxiety and the LSAT itself is very much psychological in the way you approach it. If you don't mind me asking, how many PTs have you taken? When doing drills, you may have it in your subconscious that its just…
  • I completely agree with @AlexgLSAT, focus on reading the questions when doing LR but not on RC. What has helped me with RC is really taking the time to understand a passage as opposed to speeding through like I used to with a rough idea of what it's…
  • @"Matt Sorr" hit it on the head and I think it could be a combination of both fatigue and the mindset switch. I've got the exact same issue with regards to the LR score difference so just drill and practice and I'm sure those scores will improve.
  • Thank you both so much for your comments, definitely appreciate the advice and encouragement! Its a frustrating exam to be sure and I always feel foggy and unfocused with the first few questions due to lack of sleep but somehow I get them right and …
