@MrSamIam - I'm going to try the "Why" method the next time I write a preptest. I imagine it not only helps you get a deeper understanding of the argument's structure, but it also points you to some of the assumptions the author takes for granted or…
@doneill3389 Yeah, I wonder that too. I love it when I encounter a weird game, nope it, come back to it after completing the other games in the set, and suddenly the weird game's superficial difficulty melts away.
@doneill3389, I totally agree - some of the early LG's are freaky. I'm running through the logic games bundles (no longer available on the 7sage) and some of the geographical games throw me for a loop. What I've learned is that you have to keep movi…
Hey @"Darth Jurist" hang in there - you're going to get it. Do you know which areas you need to improve on? If it's logic games, you can really improve your score if you foolproof the heck out of all of the games provided in the core curriculum and …
I use indicators, but if I run into difficulty identifying the parts of an argument, I take what I think is the conclusion and ask myself if the other sentences serve as premises. Sometimes, I have to shuffle what I perceive to be the conclusion and…
@notwilliamwallace - I was surprised to learn that UofC averages scores from multiple LSAT attempts, so I visited their site and it says, "If an applicant has written the LSAT more than once, the highest score will be used to group their file statis…
Thanks for this thread - I'll definitely check out some of the suggested pencils. Here's my story: I've been using the Staedtler Norica HB2's for a while and I like them (they're the blue pencils with white erasers). However, they seem a bit soft an…
@Marie4lawschool I read 1Q84 last year - when you get through it, let me know what you think of it. @emli1000 you should also consider something by Hari Kunzru. His "Gods Without Men" was fantastic: http://goo.gl/DC3jal
Holy moly - that's amazing - rock on! Congratulations!
I'm going to save your post and use it for encouragement in the coming months. I've been at this for a long time, so it's good to see persistence pay off. Congratulations!
That's a cool idea - like how you based it on a guitar fretboard! When I'm doing a linear game, I sometimes just number the game piece that's identified in the modifier question. For example, if the question says "if X is the sixth racehorse", I'll …
Alright everybody, here's something I viewed last night and thoroughly enjoyed. "Tim's Vermeer" is a documentary about a man who sets out to recreate a painting by Vermeer using the tools that he believes the artist used to paint photorealistic pain…
