Glad it is helpful, keep up the good work! And I think we all know that @danielznelson will go completely off the grid with the Switch being released haha

I'm with @"Alex Divine", classical is the way to go. Mozart has been repeatedly proven to increase concentration, retention, and mental acuity in students of all types, and I find that listening to any one of his violin concertos before an LSAT or a…

My timing and scores improved on RC when I did two things in particular: 1) started bracketing the main point of each paragraph as I went so that I have a physical reminder of the important points of the passage when I try to answer the questions, a…

6am - wake up 6:15 - 8am - study 9 - 5 - work (I study during any spare moments at work, sometimes up to 2 hours) 5:15 - 6:45pm - work out/relax with a hobby/eat dinner/catch up on the rest of life 7 - 10:30/11pm - study sometimes I skip the w…

I struggled with the same two types of questions. A change for the better came when I changed my mindset from looking for the right answer to looking for the wrong answer. In other words, I increased me level of scrutiny when examining such question…

Give it some time. This happened to me when I started doing 70's RC and my scores went way down. The 70's are definitely different than the 60's, and the 60's are a lot different than the 30's. Give yourself several PT's to adjust to the new style o…

I certainly didn't get into the language as much as you did, but I eliminated B because it is only talking about the oceans. There are plenty of other food sources in the world that could very well last much longer, so this AC does not necessarily s…

LR. I'd love it if the first two sections in a row were both LR. And definitely not an LR experimental.
-
I'd lean towards doing 1 per week rather than two. I did two for a while and it gets mentally exhausting. One of the most important things I've learned while studying for the LSAT - and this applies to doing individual sections, drills, PT's, etc - …
-
Yes, that is possible, and the one that weakens it to the greater degree would be correct since they always ask for the AC that "most weakens" the argument. Also keep an eye out for AC's that weaken a part of the argument that isn't central to the r…

I'll add that this kind of thing just takes time. It took me a while before things started to click, and I just had to keep drilling assumption questions with the AC's covered up so that I was forced to think through all the possibilities for assump…

yeah definitely watch the webinar on Strengthen/Weaken strategies, it is the best resource for mastering those question types
-
definitely read the question stem first. Then you can read the stimulus and know what you're looking for, rather than reading the stimulus with no specific goal in mind and then having to re-read it once you know what the question stem is asking for…

I like to do a few things while reading, but these certainly aren't universal. They work for me, but no guarantee they work for other people. 1) I use my pencil as a guide, but I don't follow each sentence. I keep it beside the paragraph and slowl…

B is wrong because, while it may be true due to our knowledge of the world/the situation, the passage doesn't specifically say or imply that. With MSS questions, you have to be brutally honest with yourself about whether or not the stimulus supports…

Don't let this get you down too much. One thing that is important to remember, especially in the early stages of your prep, is to not take yourself too seriously. This is especially true as far as timing goes. I didn't time anything for the first 2 …

@Not Ralph Nader that's insane! I improved 18 points from my diagnostic in late July to my December LSAT, all thanks to 7sage.

PT 61, Section 4, Problem 25. And yes it is negate sufficient. Example Sentence: You can't have snow without cold temperatures = /Snow --------> Cold Temperatures. Correct Interpretation: Snow ---------> Cold Temperatures (/Cold Te…

Daniel is the absolute best!

Are the sections the same for everyone who got 3 LR sections? In other words, if I see that someone else has 3 LR sections like I did, are we talking about the same sections in the same order? Or are the 3 LR sections in a different order for everyo…

@"Not a LG Wizard" I had the same layout, and I'm with you - really really hoping the first section is real and the second section isnt. I can't seem to remember which questions were in that section, but looking at the comments here it looks like th…
