I did the LR out of order that way too, per the suggestion of another 7Sager. I don't want to say that you should or shouldn't do this, but if you're thinking about it I would encourage you not to write it off without trying it. It really helped m…

It's not your brain! Your brain can and will learn to comprehend the stimulus quickly. Have confidence and trust in your study process. As you drill more LR sections and become more familiar with the test, you will start to recognize the type of que…

Mike has a cheat sheet on his website that I printed out and pinned on the wall by my desk. Over time I would add sticky notes to drill stuff I was having trouble with and scratch out stuff I didn't end up using. http://www.thelsattrainer.com/assets…

This article was a huge help for me: http://lsathacks.com/guide/reading-comprehension/reading-speed-lsat/

I got at least 4 hours on weekdays, and often more like 6 to 7. That'd be a half hour before leaving for work, a half hour on the train, an hour at lunch, another half hour on the train home, and then studying after dinner from about 7 to 10 or 11. …

You can decide if 2 months is enough based on how many PTs you plan to take and how many you can stand to take in a week! I took about 20 full length PTs over 3 months, doing at first 1 a week, then 2, then 3. Taking 20 was good for me because it wo…

My first PT was only 3 points over my diagnostic, and that was after two months of studying. I felt deflated too. My second PT was 5 points higher and then after a few more PTs I hit a comfortable range. Taking a full PT is a lot different from doin…

@Jessabelle I did unusually well on RC too. It's my worst section. Unfortunately I made up for it with LG haha. Good job getting your PT average and good luck in October!
-
@nicole.hopkins lol thanks! I feel like a celebrity tweeted at me. That's the kind of power you have around here
-
a) 151 (completely cold four years ago, but 160 when I started studying in January) b) 174 c) 172 Good luck to you all!

I'm happy for you! Hope the good vibes carry you through October!

2 under my practice average, but 2 over what I wanted -- I will not be retaking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had two LGs and I don't remember anything like that. Hope that can somehow give you the finality you needed haha bc my memory is now a week's worth of rusty.

@gstar2015 I would recommend Manhattan RC. I learned RC mostly through the Trainer, but I bought the Manhattan RC ebook a few days before the test and read all the strategies but skipped the drills. I thought they had a lot of good tips on reading t…

I would love (I think) a -12 scale! But based on the historic scales on Cambridge, the only -12 scale on a 100-question test ever was in October 2002. -10 is the most common. The last five 100-question tests: October 2008: -9 December 2008: -11 Ju…

I couldn't tell you where planets was but I would estimate it was somewhere in the middle... somewhere haha. People keep talking about babies and cows, which I vaguely remember, but I actually have no idea how I felt about either of those questions.…

Yeah, it sounds like there were at least a couple possible experimental LR sections. I had double LG myself, if you want to run some LR questions by me. Random vent: I still have no idea about the mate in Paraguay question and the oval orbits quest…

I also started with the Trainer, which was a solid start, but after about 20 PTs I was still least improved in RC. Here's what helped me: -- Read the explanations for all the questions you have trouble with on lsathacks.com. They do a good job of po…

I bought 7sage three weeks before the June LSAT. I think it was a great decision. I self-studied with the Trainer before that, but after lots of PTing and watching JY's LG explanations, I realized I wasn't being as efficient as I could in certain …

Is this information supposed to be in that box to the right of the address? Yeah mine is completely empty. I was just gonna show up and ask.

I accidentally printed two copies of 73, so it is now my warmup. Doing the first passage, first half of the first LR, and first game. On a blog I read a recommendation to do fresh sections for warmup... But then I decided against it.

Hey man, don't think about it too hard and ride the wave of confidence to your high score! Magic happens

I also need the caffeine buzz so I spent the last week doing liquid intake observations... I determined that if I drink a tall (Starbucks size) espresso drink with an extra shot of espresso at 10:30 and then go to the bathroom at 12, I'll be suffici…

I definitely struggled with this game too, but it helped to set it up like this: First I wrote out all the possible transfers, in order of game pieces i.e. J K L M and which other ones they can transfer to: JK JL KL KM etc. When I got to question …

hj, my route was a bit similar. I took my first ever diagnostic (absolutely no idea what was on the LSAT) four years ago and got a 151. My diagnostic this January was 160. I'm now taking three PTs a week and the average of my last five is 174. I did…
