also should it be double spaced?
I am not who you asked, but the best answer to this would be to read the directions of each school you are applying. Some schools are pretty specific and others will let you decide. As a …
I didn't use all of the space; it is much better to write clearly and concisely than to fill a page. If you have said all you need to say anything extra is just wasting words. Also keep in mind that because people have very different spacing/letteri…
I've been filling time with:
1. Schoolwork. It is my senior year so I've been nicely busy with tons of end of semester papers and tests. These coming two weeks I have 3 papers and 2 finals so...yeah.
2. Work. I work the weekends so that occupies …
@"Cant Get Right" I play a whole mess of genres! My current project is Final Fantasy 15; picked it up the other day and am now looking forward to sitting back and playing it! I've been waiting for this game to come out for almost 10 years; so conven…
I hate to sound pandering, but this post and similar ones prove JY and crew are the absolute best when it comes to leaders for your LSAT prep. You guys always remind us to have fun and enjoy what we are doing.Whenever I get to talking with someone a…
I love this post! I'm personally gonna be keeping myself busy with some video games and Netflix. I've barely had time for either with the busy semester and LSAT.
My reasoning for believing that C would strengthen it is because if the insertion occurs at a random spot when a species initially receives it, and the two birds have it in the exact same spot, it strengthens the arguments that the virus was contrac…
1. My general rule is to give them 1 1/2 to 2 months after my initial asking of them without ever asking them about it further. Professors usually have a lot on their plates, especially since many serve as several different things within their unive…
You still need to read the question stem to know exactly what you are meant to do; and the question stem indicates perfectly what type of question it is. The point isn't that the question stem tricks you or doesn't reveal the question type. The poin…

lol @Tinyosi1
Yes!!!
I was just talking about this on Discord! I did a section the other day with two blocks like this; one where 5 of 6(or 6 of 7?) in a row had the same answer, and another where 4 of 5 in a row had the same …

Yes, as I indicated, the fact that (B) is correct for Q1 implies T—W.
No, it simply implies that this is a possibility. The fact that it is possible in one scenario does not mean it is always the case. We can only conclude that i…
This actually doesn't require you to assume these; the other four answer choices are incorrect on their own.
A violates that N is the longest
C violates that S is the shortest
D violates I...W(I is longer than W)
E violates that each segment needs…

Also someone on here had an issue about it saying it will be delivered in 1 to 2 months lol but they ended up getting it within the week.
I can confirm that the date it claims you will get it is not always represe…

For LG, actually reading choices help me bc I found sometimes I miss a sub-game board and miss some inferences and sometimes I even mis-represent rules. But maybe this may be an indicator I'm not mature on LG?
My personal opinion…
In LG conventional wisdom seems to indicate that if an answer choice is correct then you should move on and only ensure that the others are wrong with extra time. In many of JY's explanation videos you will hear him say things like "And since this i…
In regards to reading every answer choice: I would say I read every answer choice 85-90% of the time. I do this because I want to make sure any correct option I did pick was not wrong due to me overlooking something. However, there are exceptions:

I very rarely diagram in LR; the only question types I really use it on are MBT and parallel reasoning, but for PR it is only if I have trouble immediately finding the correct answer.
Many past LSATs weren't released. These days things are a bit more standard as June, September/October, and December are always released and February always isn't(I believe).
While I am not sure if there was a specific system then, it seems severa…
I have to agree with @"Alex Divine" about the "questions first" approach to RC. It seems like you will just waste time doing this.
If you have trouble reading a passage WITHOUT all that other stuff to consider, how will this help you? In my opinio…
Do you have any "problem areas" on your tests? If so, make sure to devote a good amount of time to focusing on those. This is especially true of Logic Games; conventional wisdom says to study LG rigorously until you can consistently get -0, or at th…
I think for everyone it is different, but when I don't understand a sentence I usually go back and read it a little more slowly. A general rule I use for myself is that if I can't paraphrase it in my head then I didn't really "read" it and have to g…
As someone still mastering LG, there are MANY times my board does not reach JY's level. It is all a part of the learning process; JY is a vet at this and mastering the LSAT is literally part of his job.
JY's level of mastery is certainly a goal to…
What exactly isn't working for you? Will the 7Sage app not open at all? I have an up-to-date iPhone 7 and the app has been working great for me. Is the app fully updated?
The best advice I can give is to not let stuff stop you from getting at least a little done. Just like with things like exercise and dieting, the best results come when you make a habit out of things.
The days when you feel the worst and most tire…
I find that reading "old" works really helps me grasp modern writing.
I'm not sure many would agree, but reading stuff like The Illiad(or any other ancient Greek work), Shakespeare(and other plays of that time), and stuff written by people like JS…

I have learned that when I have a plan B, I am more likely to succeed with plan A. I think I get too much satisfaction out of my goal alone.
I definitely feel this way as well! If I have multiple scenarios in my head, then doing a…
Are there any patterns you can find within the sections you do "bomb"? I know you mentioned they can be different types, but there may be something else going on.
Are they all later in the test? Maybe you need to work on your test taking stamina. …
If for some reason I would give up the idea of law school I would go for my Master's and PhD and look to research/teach in my field. I might end up going for them anyway down the line.
