@jonkhan094 no stupid questions! They are different.
Here is how @danielznelson explained a diversity statement
"Diversity statements are usually about a quality you have that is underrepresented at law school a…
This is a very interesting question, and I don't think I've seen an AC like this before - at least, I've never before noticed this.
I do think "not likely" would destroy the argument, since if genetic predisposition was less likely, it wouldn't mak…
Your issues may well primarily or at least significantly in the answer choices. But before I get to that, I'd have a few, additional recommendations for the reading of the passage:
Focus on purpose and relationships rather than "details."
The "…
@tringo335 Great question! We'll probably go over the 2nd and 3rd passages, unless you all think otherwise. Ideally, I'd say do the section, though I am a major advocate of doing individual sections for certain purposes. But if drilling as normal, t…
I'd argue that for (at least) most, 2 minutes spent in actually reading the passage is too short of time. I myself usually go about 3:30 and others go even a bit higher than that.
It seems like you know what to do, you just aren't giving yourself e…
It's actually quite common to see a drop in scores after having completed the curriculum. Outside of your normal variance, PTs post-curriculum may suffer from scores even lower than your diagnostic. This may be due to a variety of reasons for any on…
Great job, first of all!
Something like this happened to me in LR, as well, where I began to read with more intention and speed. I gained almost overnight 5 minutes per section, on average and a score increase on top of it.
I'm very prone to make …
@"Daniel.Sieradzki" haha, yeah, I'm messing. I'm honestly not busy unlike you, so I'm playing plenty of Switch, let me tell you!
Come back season.... indeed.
A lot of people really liking determining whether you need a bridging or blocking assumption. The former is a lot like an SA, where two ideas need to be connected. In an NA bridging question, however, the relationship doesn't have to make for a vali…
Yeah, I've definitely noticed this as well, and to a varying extent according to any one PT.
Correct AC in RC are clouded with more referential phrasing and synonymous words/terms/phrases that do not immediately seem appealing. This often leads us …

What about financial aid? I assume there is no prospect of financial aid for the higher ranked school one would transfer to... correct?
It was my understanding that aid period was rare. I'd like to know this, as well, since …
I think it's very important to consider first what is most important. If it's to have the best possible written statements, then I would recommend David, both from my own personal experience and from many others.
Not sure if you know, but David wen…
What are some potential topics you could use? I myself am a straight, white male, but am also a first-generation college graduate. My topic was on that.
@mymouthonvacation you may be right. I told Dillon it was amusement also indicated I was fishy about it. Sorry for steering you wrong, @"Dillon A. Wright"!
To your first question, yes, I do it often - maybe for 2-4 questions each section. Especially for some of the hardest questions, too much time can easily be spent. Should you fall for that trap, you're from then on trying to keep up and make time el…

In a language shift, the stimulus and the AC contain different languages, but signify/mean the same thing. The relationship among elements discussed remain the same. (For example, "Sarah bought a cookie" and "a woman pu…
I agree with @TheMikey. Start from the conclusion and work backwards, not only to identify conclusion that don't match up (different quantifiers, prescriptive vs. not, relative vs. absolute, probabilistic or absolute, et cetera). Not only this, star…
Be offensive, rather than defensive. The latter is exhausting, anxiety-inducing, and debilitating. The latter provides a sense of self-autonomy and fluidity.
For LG specifically, splitting and building inferences up front allows one to better appro…

Great question! By testing successfully, I assume you mean completing an LSAT without getting kicked out of the testing center or being barred from re-entry. While it is a challenge, certain things can be done to ensu…
