There’s a Harvard article that talks about how “caffeine naps” are beneficial. Basically, a caffeine nap is when you take a quick nap after consuming caffeine. From experience, I’ve taken a lot of mini caffeine naps during long night study sessions.…

Well I would said that if you’re performing well on LG that is very good. I would hazard a prediction that a lot of people who score lower on the actual LSAT than on their pt’s/BR’s are losing points on logic games. For example, using diagrams in yo…

The fastest way to beef up your score is to improve on LR. Logical reasoning is one of the most learnable sections next to logic games and a great way to improve your score given that there are 2 LR. Powerscore’s LR reasoning bible is very good, IM…

If you’re desperate to find something at all you could also try some GMAT and GRE questions. The GMAT has a type of question called “critical reasoning” which is very, very similar to LR and it also has reading comprehension. The GRE is the same- it…

Also, I would go back and document the questions you’re missing. Try to see if there are any patterns like you’re missing a lot of LR weaken questions or running out of time on ordering games. Without any insight into where you’re missing points- it…

Well I’m not quite a 170 sage- I scored a 169/170 on an untimed PT which is my highest PT record- but a close friend of mine is. She spent 2 years studying for the LSAT and eventually scored a 179. Some advice I remember her giving me is that it’s r…

I think he means the essay portion of the LSAT exam. I wouldn’t worry about this section too much because again your total score is what ultimately matters the most. However, for what it’s worth I would keep your essay to 3-5 paragraphs. I got a per…

Possibly. Ironically, sometimes you get better when you chill out and just take some time off. Go workout, read whatever you want, have a drink and talk to people, eat good food, have great sex.
-
Absolutely. It’s a high stakes entrance exam so expect that studying for it brings out both the best and worst in people.

I totally understand your competitive drive to want to score even higher! This is not a bad thing, but at the same time we inevitably want to attend law school right? If you do not score higher, a 166 is still a score to be very proud of yourself fo…

This happened to me too. If this is happening my guess is that you understand the question stimulus but are ultimately getting the answer choice wrong because you cannot comprehend the answer choices. For example, if you narrow down an assumption qu…

This is a good question but I think the answers you receive will be varied. For example, a person’s LSAT learning curve could depend on what age they started studying. One friend of mine spent 2 years studying for the LSAT and eventually scored a 17…

You still need to keep doing it; a better way about thinking about it is can you hit within 2-3 points of your target on pt’s consistently? For example, if you score 161, 165, 163 on 3 consecutive pt’s that is theoretically better than scoring 167 o…

Honestly don’t think about it too hard and just do it

@"Leah M B" said: I think the biggest argument for the GRE is for dual degrees (like JD/MBA). I think it makes sense that law schools would accept it in that scenario, allowing applicants to only take a single exam. But otherwise, it makes mor…

I would like to add that in terms of relative difficult and the new retake policy for the LSAT, the GMAT is about the same level of difficult as the LSAT relatively speaking. The math on the GRE and GMAT is not to be underestimated; I sat in for a m…

Ok so actually I think I can answer this question. The GRE is a great option for prospective law students if they’re applying to law school if they’re already in a masters a program; one of the reasons law schools have decided to make this shift is …

I think it can be good to read older and perhaps somewhat obscure literature; the grammatical style of Shakespeare, for example, can definitely force you to read more actively in an effort to comprehend.

First of all you gotta relax and remember not all PT’s are made equally and that there a variety of factors that could have been attributed to your lower scores. How much sleep did you get in between each pt? Did you work before taking a pt? Have yo…

I’d give it another month; you should definitely delay. But also keep in mind that you can’t take forever and some point there’s diminishing returns. The LSAT is a major component of the application and it’s important to alott enough time do well on…

I think we’re all just human and sometimes it’s natural to lie or exaggerate a bit when we’re put on the spot; everyone has a black box after all. Also, I didn’t mean whether people on 7Sage bluff. I would imagine 7Sage is fairly transparent because…

No the LSAT contrapositive is if not b then not a

You mean like making a diagram for an LR? Yes, some people do this. My friend who scored a 179, tutored me a couple of times and drilled into my head If A then B; But if not b then that does not necessarily mean not A. The power score LR bible discu…

Well done

Oh my...remember to stay humble though.

I tried cbd myself and it worked very well. Of course, you want make sure you get THC free cbd products since there no sense in getting stoned before an exam. Look up TKO terpenes cbd j or cbd edibles- these work a lot like a natural Xanax. One of m…
