It's definitely different for everyone! I'm old (36) so I find I just don't have the brain power LOL.

A rest day is definitely not necessary - just saying what works for me

@"giulia.pines" thank you for replying! I appreciate your input, I feel like that many PT's could be too much. I was just wondering if you could e…
Since that's one practically every 2 days, I'd say it's a bit too much. It might serve you better to have one day for a PT, one day for review, and then one day for drilling on whatever question types are most difficult for you. You should also have…
My most recent PT was -2 LG, -2 RC, and -3 LR so I think I'm just gonna keep plugging away at PTs to get more comfortable with the brain power it takes. Thanks everyone!
I have been doing four section PTs because at this point for me (I'm taking October) it's more important to get into the midset of having to concentrate for that long, and less important what score I get. I think it's crucial to simulate just how ti…
If you go back into the question bank and simply click each LR question you want to add to your problem set, it will create the set as a fresh copy and you won't see the answers!
No, definitely don't put a job offer that never materialized on your resume. Resumes are about listing your experience, and while a job offer is a credential, a job offer you were not able to follow through on does not say anything about your work e…
That's amazing! What is your goal score? I would slow down because everything I've read here points to taking 1 PT, doing BR the next day, then resting and repeating. I think 2 PTs would just about kill my brain!
I've been averaging -5 on LR and what really helped me is NOT TO WASTE TIME on questions that are time sinks. I skip a lot, and I've gotten comfortable with skipping because I know I'll have about 10 minutes at the end to come back to the hard ones.…
@laurennnn I was already pretty good at LG, but I have to say getting the PowerScore book, reviewing the basics, and doing a TON on paper really helped.

Sounds to me like you're really close to pulling it all together. I'd keep grinding in LR for sure trying to strike the ideal balance between care and speed. I don't think you meant that you're struggling with PSA/SA anymo…
Honestly wish I could tell you! I think (shhh! don't tell) the Powerscore book/techniques really helped, but it's so personal to everyone.

Do you mean which types of questions I'm getting right/wrong on the section? They were trending towards SA/PSA and Weaken questions earlier, but now it's honestly mostly dumb mistakes I don't catch!
Thanks

When I Started I was weak at everything, -20 in LR, -17 in RC and -15 in LG. Took a few months to go from 134 to 155 consistently. From 155-160 was another journey, breaking that 160 took perfecting games. 160-165 was a huge…
My heart goes out to you. I had a very similar experience in undergrad (an abusive, controlling older boyfriend was always trying to take me away from friends and academics, distract me from my schooling, get me to contribute money to all sorts of t…
Based on experience in PTs, I think the "easier" passages can have harder questions. For example, I often think I do quite well on arts/humanities passages and worse on science and law passages, but it often ends up being the other way around! I thi…
Stories like this make me feel so much better. I started studying in January, with the intention of taking the test in April. Well, it's 8 months later and I'm probably postponing August to October. I feel like a fool most of the time, and I also wo…
I've basically been at the same score for 4 months and I also feel like everyone else has that same quintessential something that I happen to be missing. I can't offer any words of advice but I can offer sympathy. I just postponed June at the last m…

@Bebe2026 every test has a predetermined curve. no need to pray for that. also...who is filling your mind with the nonsense that June LSATs are harder? Don't believe everything you read on the internet.
Thank you! I was …
