Hi JY, that actually happened to some guy in my test center last time. And about the experimental section, don't let it ruin your confidence if you think you screwed up on one section. Assume that it is the experimental. Always assume that you did…

hey, you got to the 170s, K. Congrats. Seems like you surpassed me. I have been struggling to remain in the 170s, but preptests post 60 has been killing my confidence. I have no idea how I am going to do tomorrow. Best of luck to everyone whose taki…

In fairness, the newer LSATs (60+) are much harder. So it might not all be burnout.
-
One question. Do you have to be in Law School already to sign up?
-
I agree with Jason, I really don't see much difference other than the fact that the recent ones are feature fewer games that cannot be categorized. If anything, games seems to get easier and RC harder.
-
Yea, that's right, you simply do not have time on the real test to be 100% with your answer. Sometimes, you don't even have to read all the answer choices if you are confident of the one you picked, though doing that greatly increases your risk of f…

You do realize that the question asks you to parallel BOTH flaws right?
-
No you don't need to flip the page. And the reason they are having two pages now is because LSAT takers are complaining about the artificial space difficulties.
-
You should get a copy of the newer lsats from amazon. The format are reproduced exactly like the real test. It't hard to describe exactly what it's like.

Ah, I remember JS and I discussing this question. Here is my understanding of this question, reproduced from my email to JS: Sufficient condition: one pesticide should be legal and another illegal. Necessary condition: the legal pesticide is les…

Another cleverly worded wrong answer choice. I actually have a different interpretation that does not focus on the word STRUCTURE and CHARACTERISTIC. Two things are being compared in the stimulus, a phenomenon (nature) and the reasoning used to un…

Great stuff. I just want to add that the presumptions that exist in LR questions are key to most types of questions. There are only 3 things that makes up an argument, the premise, conclusion, and assumption, an unstated premise. In most cases, you …

Yea.

Because they did not eat the dish that has the disease. Say that the restaurant serves several seafood dishes and one of the dishes has the disease. E says only people who eat the contaminated dish got sick. The stimulus says most people eat seafoo…

Funny thing. I did the same thing 2 months ago and scored 158. Guess you are not the only idiot.
-
So you are aiming 175 and above. Glad to hear that someone is as ambitious as I am. Out of curiosity, what was your average LR score before this test?
-
Well, it is the same thing. The dish is made from seafood.
-
Ok. Sounds like you are regaining your confidence. What probably happened is that you are thrown off by some questions and lost your calm and focus afterwards. I know this is what happened to me on the June 2013 test. LG totally killed me. I believe…

Did you not get JY's basketball analogy? That was so brilliant.
-
I just finished preptest 50. I can see why you are having trouble with LR. The test does feature some unusual questions. Interestingly, the 3 questions you mentioned are not among the unusual questions. Two of the questions has to do with assumption…

Ok, Let me know when you are done with the test, you can email me at [removed]

I'll do preptest 47 today and 50 tomorrow then. So how do you want to do this? Do you prefer Google Doc or Skype or something else?
-
Pretty good. i got 178 on PT 46 after BR. I am regaining some of my confidence back from the June test. I am going to do PT 50 tomorrow. Someone else in the forum seems to have some trouble with this particular test. I too have noticed changes in LR…
-
Lol, don't be too harsh on yourself.
-
would you give me the question number of the ones that you missed and the wrong answer choices you picked. I make no promises, but I'll try to see what I can do to help you.
-
What do you mean by you don't understand the stimuli? Is it the English grammer or the logical structure? Do you understand it after you watch the explanation?
-
Depends on how much time you are willing to to put into it. If you are willing to stick with the blind review method and work 40 + hours a week, then it's definitely possible, I say you might even breakthrough 165
-
E is just irrelevant. One of the most important thing to get a good LR score is to anticipate the answer before reading the answer choices. For this question, it's rather difficult because the author's argument looks quite sound. The key here is to…

The way I was always told is write something on topic and don't draw any pictures.

Yes, all species of ants belong to ants, the way ants is used here should be interpreted as ants in general. If you ask me why, I don't know what to tell you other than this is just what the way the word ant should be understood in this context. Con…
