Take all of them. There is something new to see in each one. Write out, abstractly, new information that you leaned after running into a difficult question or one you didn't fully understand in a notebook. Read that notebook before you take a PT to …
@MissChanandler This helps. I just typed out something but I ended up answering my own question.
My further question is when to regard pieces as individuals or as a game piece? For instance, in my view at least, the word "volunteer" is just a name …
This gave me some trouble as well. I found that "not all" was just as confusing as "must be false EXCEPT."
J.Y. teaches us to view "must be false EXCEPT" questions as could be true, which is a hell of a lot easier to understand. That said, I made a…
Thank you both for the comments. Ahh, your explanation helps tremendously. My emphasis was wrong then it seems, thanks for the clarification!! @MissChanandler
I am, will now be was, the first way offender. I'm going to change that from now on. The comments are spot on in regards to downplaying sections that were "better."
I'll also add that instead of going only with my circled questions, I would count h…
There's no need to view two score drops and suddenly think you're hitting some type of LSAT crisis. Relax and realize these two might be pressing your weaknesses more then others. I think it's more reliable to see your progress by averaging the last…
I totally had the same trouble when I got to in-out games as well. I could not for the life of me understand this necessary/sufficent triggering stuff.
I'd like to say that using english to understand these rules helps tremendously. If you ever get…

I see! I was doing that before too, but I got a bit anxious because the test is in September. So, I started taking the tests to see my weaknesses. Also, I noticed you have a premium account and I am thinking about upgradi…
I tried that method at first but it was not for me. These disagree/agree questions have to be shorter, probably a max of 3/4 sentences each person. So, I underline the main ideas each person talks about. I take mental note of similar ideas being pre…
Hello, @Laurazh3. SA and PSA should be very specific in what you are looking for. Because these two deal with validity, they both 100% can be reliably anticipated. With SA, there is one AC that will state exactly what you should anticipate, as it's …
I agree with @"Lucas Carter". It might seem counterintuitive to rip apart a strengthening question but it really helps. For now, I think you should focus on the 15 or so typical flaws made in arguments. You need to get solid fundamentals. Drill thes…
@AudaciousRed what you said makes total sense. You give a valid point that ACs also carry weight in restriction as well. Some MBT question ACs can be something simple like "C is before day 3," which is not alarming on an average game. So in that sen…
Thanks for the response @akistotle!
Yes! You are totally right about J.Y. advocating for skimming the questions, but on that particular game or any others like it, I think the skimming should be used as an indicator for the "exception" to a commonl…
Hi @eliza_engineer. I have been studying for quite some time too. We have similar scores, current and diagnostic. My first take I was studying relentlessly and I only improved so much. I learned a great deal from that and I have my experience to sha…
@Giselle112 @arman_65 I might give this a try! How well did it help with RC?
I think the 7sage course is fantastic. Other then doing PTs/drills to apply and perfect what you have learned in the CC, I think the course is really all that is necessary…
I think @Ohnoeshalpme gave some quality insight, you should follow this. That is a great approach to get some solid fundamentals.
If you are struggling with both SA and PSA, I would suggest strictly working on getting SA down first. PSA can be a bi…
@JustDoIt Fantastic pick up there with the "to." I have to totally agree with you. Most of the time I do see the logic language as fluid English for me. But, I really have to adopt this natural approach when stuff hits the fan. I believe that when I…
@TTurner24 Don't be sorry! I could have explained more fully.
To start off, in the context of that hard SA question that made me write this, the conclusion stated:
"It's imprudent to appear prudent."
Knowing this is SA territory, I know for a…
