I can't even get on the website... GENERAL ERROR. Ugh.
-
I would say go through 7sage again, this time taking notes and doing all the available prep material. I wrote in June after thoroughly going through the Bibles and skimming 7sage and scored in the low 160s. After I got my score back, I did the whole…

Burnout is real. I strongly suggest NOT doing another PT. Instead, do a section - any section. Mark it, review it. I'm sure you will do just fine. Let your brain rest after that. There is nothing you can do between now and Saturday that is going to …

You can certainly reset your watch after each section without any worry.

Hmmm... The night before, I have yet to give much thought to what I will be eating. Morning of, I'm going to grab some yogurt, granola (and COFFEE), and maybe a banana. Snacks will be a protein bar and water. Layers are key, given that you'll have n…

I second what godawgs24 says

I'm writing one today and one Wednesday, with review on Tuesday and Thursday. Friday I'm taking off. I'm scoring where I need to be, so if you are too - then I'd say it's not overkill. But if you have a couple identifiable areas of weakness, maybe f…

I think it's safe to say that you'll have an extra 20 mins for checking in & material distribution etc. so... Start time will likely be around 8:50-9.

I do a game and a couple LR questions as well. I don't grade anything. I also made cue cards with a few reminders on them to help me get my head straight.

Thanks! Yeah I think I will buckle down and drill RC this way for the next little while and see if it helps. Hopefully I can get a similar consistency going!

Oddly they are all over the map. Sometimes I think it's due to lack of concentration or zoning out - which ends up costing me time in the long run, and thus points. Or if it is not that, then rushing and not internalizing the information I'm reading…

When I was just starting out writing PTs I did see (and feel) a difference from switching from 4 to 5 sections in terms of my ability to really concentrate. By the fifth section I could tell that it was a little more difficult to stay zoned in - it …

I think days off are crucial. It allows things to settle in your brain. I typically write 3 PTs per week - I hit my highest LSAT score after taking the weekend off, and then the following two I do that week dip slightly. This has been a trend with m…

Just take a look at PT 60 - sometimes marking 4 in a row is a good thing Although, I admit, it does look odd. Once you realize that this has happened a couple times in previous LSATs your worries (or at least mine) seem to diminish. I still notice …

My LR improved significantly through 7sage. The course gives you the foundation, but as recommended, doing timed PTs with a blind review is what really helped me. BR forces you to slow down, really digest the material, and then evaluate your strengt…

I also agree w zwoerner. If you have the funds, I'd recommend buying it. Most important, however, remains the PTs.
-
I recently started taking some quick notes while watching the lessons. I'm the type of peson who retains information better after doing this. If you are too, then go for it. I'd suggest printing out some, if not most, of the problem sets and doing t…

Fantastic, incredibly motivating. Thanks for posting, JY.
-
Great advice, JY. Thank you.
-
I would say it is one of the most important parts of the process. Since I started doing that, my LR sections, timed, are somewhere between -1 and -3 (untimed -1 or 0). For me, that's been a huge improvement from where I started and I feel more conf…

7sage is amazing - I've jumped from a 148 timed diagnostic to a 165 - my blind reviews are around 173. Their approach really works, particularly for the games and LR.
