I strongly agree with @Pacifico. http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-interleaving-effect-mixing-it-up-boosts-learning/
-
I agree with @"Nilesh S" and I feel very similarly @yhchoi1687. I know I underperformed how I'd been PTing, but I don't think I'll cancel. I'm going to sign up for December and retake unless I miraculously did much better than my post-test assessmen…

174 and a top 14

Thanks, David!
-
I understand you must answer truthfully. I was not asking if you recommend lying, but rather whether you thought getting professional editing help with essays can have a negative impact, specifically for Yale. My question was prompted by this blog p…
-
@david.busis I understand Yale has a question on their application about whether you had any help with the essays or application. In your experience, does answering "yes" have a significant negative impact? Thanks!
-
Congrats! Thanks for the inspiration
-
Gonna be late but ready to go!
-
Will try to make it for the 3rd or 4th section!
-
Oh...never mind...I see the "old problem sets" toward the end there...thanks!
-
I'm confused about this. Is the order and content of the problems sets different now? I had completed most of them before, but had a few outstanding. Now I can't see which I've finished and which remain to be done. Is there a way to go back to (or a…
-
Nice! That's a huge improvement. Very encouraging
-
Yes to Saturday and Wednesday! Yes to starting at 45! (although I'm also fine with going back to 36) Hmmm...actually. This is tough. How much will we remember? I've retaken some tests myself and haven't had much recall (just a couple LR question…
-
This week I will: -Review videos on validity and some/most relationships -Fool proof games from PT 62 -Take and BR PTs 1, 50 and 63 -Drill one RC science and one older LG each day
-
@josephellengar interesting! Do you usually get your 6 questions wrong in the same section, or same type of questions? I think you're right that the scale can matter for people who have really solid fundamentals. We were talking about this on the B…
-
Because of the scaling, there should not be much variation test to test. As Nicole said, PT 62 was especially challenging for many people, but had a generous curve. For example, I got 9 questions wrong, which would often be a 171. With the unusually…
-
This is great. I think I'll go with the banana and cliff bar. :-D
-
This week I will: -take and BR PTs 60 and 61 -re-do games from 58 -finish weakening drills -1 game and 1 RC science passage per day
-
@nicole.hopkins I, on the other hand, recently woke up and will be starting PT 60 (that's what we're on, right?) in about an hour. #thisneedswork And that reminds me...important question: What is everyone's preferred LSAT snack?? (besides bacon..…
-
Same snacks during break...I like it @"Quick Silver" One thing I want to start doing is taking PTs at the same time the LSAT is offered. I haven't been diligent about this at all so far, but I think it'll be good to make a habit of it.
-
@DumbHollywoodActor I recommend a Coursera course on formal logic from University of Melbourne. https://www.coursera.org/course/logic1. It goes into more depth than you will need for the LSAT, but I think it provides a helpful foundation in logic th…
-
For those of us taking in October, would anyone be interested in group BRing early tests (pre 36)? Especially because there are no 7sage videos for many of the LR and RC questions, I think being able to talk through the questions would be helpful.
-
So sad I'm going to miss this..."See" you guys next Saturday for PT 58?
-
Oops. Did not do what I had set out to accomplish last week. I blame the flu. I did take and BR preptests 54 and 55. Luckily now there's a new week to make progress! This week I must: 1. Finish fool proofing games from 54 and 55 2. Watch video exp…
-
Thanks for the recipes, @VegMeg55!
-
Last week: didn't do much. Got through a few RC science passages and Logic Games from early PTs. Took and group BRed PT 52. This week: -PTs 50, 51, 53 -Remaining problem sets for Main Point, MSS and Weakening questions -Fool proof 1 Logic Game per…
-
Wanna link me to the recipes for Chickpea-Potato Stew and Spinach and Tofu lasagna? Thanks!
-
I hope to make it Monday too. Was way to sick to do the test or join Saturday's call, but I'm certainly hoping to rally for tomorrow! Hope 47 went well!
-
Ordered. Thanks for the recommendation, @nicole.hopkins!
-
Of course, @"Dillon A. Wright"! Monday at 8pm EST. PM me your Skype name and I'll add you to the call. The only condition is that you take and review PT 52 beforehand ;-D
