So true! I am the first to kick myself for not hitting my goal score each time, but try to remind myself from time to time that my diagnostic was a 142 and in retrospect I'm very proud of the progress it took to get to high 150s low 160s!
I actually found it very fast to highlight & underline given that the flex is on a laptop! Way easier than the tablet.
My backup plan is to skip as soon as something isn't making sense though - to me thats usually an indication that I've misrea…
@yunonsie I was just contemplating the same thing! My break down of pros and cons...
4 section = only requiring back-to-back stamina of 2 sections (1+2 / break / 3+4). Though it is a longer exam day in total.
3 sections = shorter test total, but r…
I can attest to @"Law and Yoda" I am trying to re-approach my studying and am going back to basics.
I am spending as much time I need right now to analyze MP, tone & structure in the passage, then move onto questions and practice prephrasing an…
I just scored a 150 lower than where I was a year ago and had just scored my first 160 a weekend before test day! this is a hard test. I am devastated.
@leahgolbuff we have been scoring in the same range! I had just hit my first 160 this passed weekend and my nerves killed any of those chances lol. Youre not alone!
@whatsmyname I had trouble focusing for some reason as well. It felt SO normal to my regular practice that I felt I had to remind myself it was the real thing...
@kilgoretrout hey! if you can, download the app memory diag from the app store. My ram was fine ALL week and did the same thing 10 minutes ago. You basically press a button and recycle ram. It freed up mine from 94%
@nanabillan hey! are you using a mac? I had the same issue. If you are, download the app Memory Diag from the app store and launch it. You press a button and it finds memory and closes out ram
@kaatriana Thanks, you as well if you're writing!
Oh that's good to know!! Does it appear on the screen or on your computer? I am on a Mac but I'm not sure I remember seeing a red light when I checked my equipment.
in my opinion it works wonders! It basically forces you to rely on your knowledge - something I have trouble with. Realistically there is just not enough time to go back and prove/disprove every answer choice. That's where the memory method comes in…
Mine does this whenever I have other windows open! Try force quitting everything except for google chrome and then test it.
I have also heard of other people restarting their computer and seeing it work!
@"carolyn.f" I'm glad I'm not alone! I was feeling a little guilty today - after my test I took my dog for a walk, went to the grocery store, felt like I was wasting precious time... however I do feel like it's important to not kill myself before th…
Congrats to everyone who sat today!
Whether you chose the first day of testing or not, it was a a smart decision because look whose all done! Now you get to watch the rest of us nervous wrecks frantically post in the forum lol!
Go enjoy a drink an…
For anyone still to write: I emailed LSAC and you can also use a laptop stand, bluetooth keyboard and mouse (if you want to!) I've used all those items while studying so I just wanted to ensure I would have no issues.
Earplugs are also permitted! N…
LOL funny because I was literally thinking the same thing because I always get cold and was worried it would mess up my focus on test day, and then I was like 'no this is so stupid just focus on the test not your body temperature'. So I'm glad to se…
