Anyone surprised at their score? Acc to mine I got a 166 which is the equivalent of 17 wrong, I was a bit shocked at this. I was thinking if you basically double the # wrong in LR you'd get a pretty close estimate of a non-flex test score, I have no…

Unfortunately it's an undisclosed test so I don't think they'll provide answer sheets like they would with a disclosed test.
Do they release score breakdowns? I know they won't release the questions right?
@jeff.wongkachi
Ya I agree with your example and explanation. You're saying in the case you provided the italicized sentence is an explanation for the premise but the italicized sentence does NOT offer support for the main conclusion right?
Would…
@Christopherr
Ya you made a better example sentence than I did. So if an explanation sentence is just explaining a premise this sometimes does and sometimes doesn't provide support for the premise? If it does sometimes then the premise would be an…
@btownsquee She was my tutor and helped me go from ~159/160 to getting a blind review score in the mid/high 170s and a pt score of about 168. Highly recommended!!
I think the biggest difference is that in the 80s LR the Lsac uses a few different tricks to make questions more difficult. Namely these are difficult grammar, hard wording, and really tricky answers where Lsac is going to use 1 word that totally di…
Josh Aldy/Aldi aka Can'tgetright did a "post core curriculum study guide" on the 7sage webinar archives (you have to Google 7sage webinar archives). That discusses a really good way to study throughout your whole process and it does include periodic…
Hey a few of you asked for Can'tgetright's timing strategy I'm having difficulty finding it! He did an individual webinar and he and Mike_Ross did a great one a few weeks ago too. If someone finds the link could you please post here?
@Zamalek95 said:
Hello can you elaborate more on "I used Mike Ross and Josh's timing strategy." This is a big struggle of mine.
I'm hoping to find a link to their video, Can'tgetright did one on his own awhile ago, I'll try to post if I can …
@faith234 said:
That is incredible and very inspiring. Congratulations! Would you mind sharing where I can read about that time strategy you mentioned?
It's the timing strategy by Can'tgetright I looked for it on the webinar archives and cou…

Thank you!!! Hoping it helps

THIS IS AMAZING!! Your strategy shows incredible resilience, thoughtful preparation, and is inspiring.
I'm 100% checking out The Mindful Athlete!
Thank you ^^ I had many people to thank in helping me
When you say distributions do you mean 3-1-1 2-2-1 4-1? In grouping games this is essential, I don't find it helpful in most other games. If you have an in out game with limited in out spaces it's typically pretty easy to see "oh I need 4 in which m…
I did have start stop, i avoided most of the proctoru nightmares I've been hearing. For start stop you just have a pause button at the top left of the test and I got to stop whenever I wanted and the proctor didn't yell for taking too long of a brea…
I like what you said about being able to pull a SA from each premise, there was a really hard PSA question where you had to pull 2 SAs from 2 separate premises for the right answer. The difficulty can still lie in seeing what the premises and conclu…
Hey I think this is a neat approach, what about for premise chain SA questions? Ie you have 3 premises, or an "and" or "or" premise set leading to a conclusion. Also what if you have a conditional conclusion? Can you provide examples please? I know …

Hey there
I do believe all necessary assumptions strengthen the argument, if ever so slightly.
Ditto - the fact that a NA is currently present in a situation does strengthen the argument but almost not at all

@Markmark I'm right there with you man! When I do a new LG section, I find myself always make "dumb" mistake; sometimes its picking a could be true instead of the must be true, other times its an error in manipulating the sy…

I second @"jeff.wongkachi" above. In the moment, it is obviously difficult to relax, but going that one tick slower can make all the difference. I also have horrendous handwriting so many of my letters look like numerous …

How confident are you on the problems you end up missing?
If you have doubts about your AC then flag it so you can return to it at the end of the section to double check your work. I have found this to help …

Take a bit more time upfront to check the rules and board you've created against the actual writing from the text. It ultimately saves you time because you further internalize the rules, and you don't run into the quest…
@FindingSage Thanks for the response! I'm in the same spot you were in it seems, 160s and going too carefully. I'm familiar with confidence drills and I try to go for about 85% confidence and most of LR Q's take about 1:30-2:00 (I have accommodation…
To kind of sum up, you don't stay attached to your prephrase if you have one at all. You do take a thorough and accurate read of the stim and the flaw then move into the ACs.
Do you guys take an active "hunter" or aggressive mindset though? I find …
