Thanks to folks who showed up! I'm glad people felt free to come and go, and I think we all did a great job of focusing on our work. I know I did. While people were in, I really felt accountable and got a lot of work done. As soon as people left, no…
Is that article from pre-pandemic?
Funny story. In 2019, LSAC bought tens of thousands of tablets in order to administer the test digitally at in-person test centers. The first all-digital LSAT was September 2019, lol. I think they might still send…
None of them.
It saves very little time when it works, and it can be really time-consuming when it doesn’t. Assuming strong fundamentals, it’s also just not as accurate as the alternative. (And assuming weak fundamentals, it won't help you anyway.)…
Congratulations! I can vouch for all of these tips—All critical things that were vital to my success as well. I can also second that @"Chris Nguyen" knows his stuff!
Well if you’re blind reviewing, you don’t know what you got right or wrong. So I’d start by recommending a review on how to BR which is how you should start your review.
After BR, you should do a further review of wrong answers. For those, ask your…
I should probably note before going any deeper into this that I haven't actually followed this case coming up before the Court. I've read news coverage, but none of the actual case materials or anything. So all of this--and everything above--is pure…
I’m not exactly a legal scholar either, but I do have a JD, have studied the affirmative action line of cases, and am pretty familiar with the general thinking of the current lineup of Justices. My prediction is that they will end the consideration …
Hang in there. Be stubborn. Don’t accept anything less of yourself than complete comprehension before you look at the explanation. If it feels overwhelming, that’s because it is. This test is really, really hard, and there’s nothing you can do to ch…

I'm sorry I was going through a moment of weakness after tanking an RC section when making this post.
Any tips on how I can make atleast a little bit of improvement in the next two weeks before the November…
Depends on the situation. When I was working 60-70 hours a week, I studied much less. I learned to set very low minimums because if I was ambitious and told myself I was going to study for 4 hours after work, I'd often feel overwhelmed and end up no…
Identify the problems and workshop solutions. It seems like you've identified the problem already:

Solutions? I'd recommend: Stop rus…
I’ve been hard on powerscore in the past and I think some of it has been a little overblown. Their LR is fine. Their RC is about average (which is quite bad, but they don’t deserve to be singled out). But I will stand by my very worst assessments of…
You are as burnt out as I've ever heard of. Take time off. Real time off. Don't just sit around feeling guilty for not studying for a few days. Take a couple weeks and clear your mind. Allow yourself to enjoy it. Plan things. See friends. Do not thi…
This happens all the time on students' final PT before the real thing. Typically, we put a lot more weight on this penultimate test than we do on any other PT, and that introduces a lot of pressure and anxiety we aren't used to. Far from not matteri…
I was just saying in another thread quite recently how people in your starting range so often start doing worse on RC once they begin studying for it. This is very common, so don’t panic. I’d recommend putting all your emphasis their into analyzing …

My score fluctuations mostly depend luck... like whether the passages in RC happen to make sense to me, or whether I happen to spot the subtle flaws in LRs. I feel like those things rly ain't within my control that's why …

Depending on where you’re scoring, the answer changes dramatically. A lot of people actually do worse on RC after “studying” it. Especially in the -4 to -8 range, people got to be careful…

You're doing it wrong. When you feel you're about to start crashing, you've got to escalate. If you start with one cup at 9am and then crash at, say, 3pm. Have two cups at around 2:30, thus preventing the crash. Now, the next crash will probably com…
There is a new style of "weird" question that got introduced right about this time. To me, they feel sort of like the correct answer doesn't directly answer the question. Instead, the answers will imply something from which an inference can be made,…
