  • I will jump in on the drill question and say yes and no. If you have problem sets you saved from the CC then you can use those but you can also make your own. Drilling is basically taking questions based on their question type and doing multiple lik…
  • What is your average for LG? I have heard many people say that section is the one where you can improve the fastest. Which is kind of a bummer for me because I am the opposite. LG is my strongest section, I got -0 on the September test. The other se…
  • Sorry I got a little behind on this but I have updated the additions from @keets993 and @LCMama2017
  • @AshleighK said: I remember reading your posts and learning about how far you've come, congratulations! Super proud of you I'm aiming to perfect LG and scrape up points in RC too Thanks! I really appreciate that! It has definitely been a j…
  • @denzeljones14 said: What did you do to strengthen your logic games section? I’m working on logic games and not missing any is definitely a goal for me. I wish I had some secret answer but honestly I just really enjoy logic games. I went thr…
  • @devinstelter said: Dropped a few points from my average before the test. I am disappointed, but tend to be too hard on myself when it comes to tests and academics. I am confident I can get into the schools I want to go to, but one likely with…
  • Haha yes! Came to visit my grandma for her 80th birthday in AZ and found a Starbucks open to study at today. To most it is a holiday to relax, to me it is another day to work on RC before the test coming up.
  • @jmf272 said: Gotcha thanks! That's super helpful, thought I was going crazy there for a minute. Haha studying for this test can definitely make you feel like that sometimes but in this situation you’re good
  • It just depends which PTs the questions are from. Some of the older tests do not have explanations.
  • @LivingThatLSATdream said: This is the spreadsheet I mentioned. I didn't create it so I'm unaware of the calculation specifics. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1AHcFNmNuAwSUd6OHh0UUMtTFE/edit This other projected law school debt/cost…
  • @"Mia Fairweather" said: @LivingThatLSATdream @Emily2122 do you know where the link to that spreadsheet is? Yes I am also looking for it as well. The one I did find is here https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1kE98659Gp_T828edsUZRKrhcxnK…
  • @Sami said: Great post OP! I feel like we need an LSAT recipe book honestly! My boyfriend and I started our own recipe book because we realized it was tough to find easy to make healthy recipes that worked with our schedule. Fo…
  • @keets993 said: @Hamaseh_S can't make any promises, we usually end around 11:30 PM EST during the first call so pushing it back a bit would make it really late. However, if you are going to be constantly late I can make sure that the question'…
  • @keets993 said: Is it bad I want to take PT72 now just to see what the hype is about.... Haha that is exactly what I was thinking while reading all of the comments. Now I am curious how I would do.
  • @"Leah M B" said: Oh FYI, if you haven’t done greens smoothies before, spinach is the best starter green. It blends super easily and has a mild flavor. Kale can be tough with standard blenders. The cruciferous crunch is a little better because…
  • @MarClaAve said: Sweets are my weak spot so I’m very careful with how I start my day. During the work week I make a veggie smoothie that is rich and super satisfying and I truly enjoy it (I know it sounds wierd) Unusually consists of: •on…
  • @"Leah M B" said: Oh, forgot the most important thing I was going to say. Don't get down on yourself for eating what you do. There's nothing to be ashamed of or explained away. We're all different and have different tastes. I know the guilt ab…
  • @Guillaume said: Interesting post! You could try making green smoothies from kale and other vegetables mixed with fruit. I've substituted my usual breakfast (or lack thereof) with green smoothies and have really noticed a difference. And they …
  • @"Leah M B" said: First of all I want to say, I hope you don't feel like everyone eats healthy all the time while studying for the LSAT. I mean... it's ideal, absolutely. But I'm right there with you. I'm not a healthy eater, and I try but it'…
  • I’m totally in the same boat! Following this to see what advice is offered.
  • @Giselle112 said: I also grew up eating Mexican food lol. When I went away for college it was so hard for me to learn how to eat healthier. I stuck to hot pockets, pop tarts, and ramen soups. Haha same! I still hate vegetables but I find…
  • @"Michaela.Pratt1" said: Personally I feel better when I eat lower amounts of carbs and moderate amounts of protein (from chicken/seafood etc.). Not necessarily Keto (though the one time I made it through for 3 weeks I felt AMAZING). More like…
  • @MissChanandler said: You have nothing to be embarrassed about! My advice would be don't try to change everything all at once. For the first week, just commit to having a healthy breakfast every single morning. Then the next week, add in healt…
  • @LCMama2017 said: @alyhobbs great post. That's been on my mind too. I also grew up eating latino food - lots of rice, stews, fat and well, its just delicious! It wasn't until my husband needed to change his diet because of his diabetes that I…
  • @lsatgodjk said: Hi there, @alyhobbs, Thanks for sharing. I've been overweight most of my life (there have been some years where I am in extremely good shape, and some where I just gain all my weight back due to my addiction to unhealthy …
  • @"samantha.ashley92" said: Hahahaha carrots in the rice. I recently went to a Mexican restaurant and the fajitas had carrots and cauliflower...? I'm going to send you a message. Haha what kind of Mexican restaurant does that?? I can practic…
  • Seriously so grateful for posts and comments like this. Here I am past midnight on the forum because I can’t sleep and I wonder why I have trouble studying the next day. I sometimes take my adderall too late and when I have a lot on my mind it’s ver…
  • @"samantha.ashley92" said: I guess that happens if there are more accommodated test takers than there are rooms for those who need accommodations. As of now, I'm still scheduled for September 8th. I would bet pretty much everything I own (not …
  • @Kermit750 said: Yeah I'm not too sure if it's common for accommodated test takers to take an alternative exam, but I heard those who took it in July had a different one Yea I really didn’t think about it being a different test or even on a …
  • @eRetaker said: It kinda depends on LSAC's mood tbh lol. Dec '17 to June '18 accommodated test takers apparently took same test even though it was days apart, but July '18 test takers had a different exam. Haha their mood. I can definitely s…
