I had this problem too, and I realized its because I was really terrible at doing LR’s when they were not divided based on section.Basically, I forgot my strategy when I had to switch gears for every question. Try drilling older LR sections and see …
Best advice I could give anyone is to stay far far away from Powerscore/Kaplan lol.I’ve done both and I really think self study is the best option for nearly everyone because this test is so personal. The most important thing is understanding what y…
Thank you everyone!
I’m hesitant to give advice because I realize there is so much that I don’t know at all, and what works for me might not be what works for you. For me, the biggest obstacle was learning to understand how I think and not letting …

I’m framing this shit, omg. I’ve been studying since April and COULD NOT for the life of me get LR to anything below -6. I cried. I cancelled exams. I questioned my entire existence. But it…
Honestly, I've seen some weird shit fly with proctors. The first time I wrote it, someone brought their phone with them and they were allowed to keep it...
That same sitting, someone had a picture that was WAY too small and they were still allowed …
What do you do when you PT? If you drink coffee before a practice test and you're okay, I'd stick with that Just make sure you have something filling + slow burning to eat before. I usually do two hardboiled eggs + protein oats + an apple, then cof…

The URM boost is pretty obnoxious if you ask me. It's pretty much law schools stating that certain types of minorities are inherently dumber than other minorities. URM's may get a boost when applying to law schools but once t…

Hey Idil! I'm also in Toronto, well Port Credit, which is close enough. I am however writing the September LSAT, don't know how it'll go, but I've decided to "attempt" to slay the dragon. Worst case, I guess I'll re-write. None…

155 to 175 is kinda a crazy range, lol. I might start by trying to account for that. Why such drastic swings?
Congrats on the 180 BR, that's huge! If that's not totally atypical, you may do well to focus on strateg…
I swear I knew that.

The Lsat Is an onion.
All ogres are an onion.
Therefore the Lsat is an ogre.
DID I GET THAT RIGHT!?

The LSAT is definitely like an onion because it stinks and, sometimes, it makes me want to cry.
It's honestly a borderline toxic relationship. Lots of tears
The best tip I can give you, is don't rush learning. It takes a while to truly grasp the LSAT's way of thinking. The pace of learning can be really demoralizing initially...especially if you're someone who is use to doing well at school etc BUT I pr…

One great exercise with validity that you can do across the board is to take invalid arguments and correct them; make them valid. This is the task for SA questions, but we can do this with basically any invalid argument…
@nathanieljschwartz said:
If you are struggling w logic and validity, try parallel questions and diagram ALL the ACs. Often, as JY says, these could very well manifest as stims for other question
Thank you! I'll give that a try.
Not necessarily.... could you explain a little bite more what you mean by that though?
Validity and truth are not the same, but before I dive into that, please clarify what you mean
There's also the list of uncommon answer forms.https://7sage.com/lesson/7-common-invalid-argument-forms/
For the valid ones, they are broken up into arguments 1-3 https://7sage.com/lesson/valid-argument-forms-1-3-of-9/
and 3-9. https://7sage.com/l…

Ughhh I love it so much it's gross haha. I literally turn everything into a conditional logic statement, and I think my boyfriend is starting to hate how I "weaken" his arguments. Here's to hoping that reflects on my test day score !
