Rather, it seemed like there were just a bunch of different situations where you needed to reapply everything the game gave you, and that is a difficult and time consuming thing to do.

Bingo! I've been trying to come up with a good explanation of what made these games different. I felt every problem I was starting over and plugging and chugging because it wasnt clear from the question what inference you needed etc.

I skipped a whole game, which was my plan. I figured I'm weak at the games, I'll dedicate more time to 3 I can get through. So I missed at least 5. In October I missed 16 somehow. So I've got to do better than that. I skipped conferences, but I did spend my last few minutes looking at it, and I think I got the first Q on that game right.

Smart move. Games are usually my strong suit but after looking over conferences for 2 minutes, I cut my losses. I figured the other three were managable. Hopefully conferences had a lot of 'D' answer choices..

Incorrect sir, Hopefully conferences had a lot of "B" answer choices.

The game was about Conferences so C was actually the correct guess answer choice. Sorry, brah.

I guessed on only one on the stained glass game and finished all the other games. But after looking at all these forums it makes me wonder if I got lucky and saw inferences a lot of people didn't see, or if I'm blind and totally messed up.

Waiting for this score is awful!

my LG (-0or-1 for me usually) started at around 2:30.

by the time i got so exhausted and hungry.

had trouble even doing the two easiest games, and guessed like 9 D's on the hard games.

can i complain about my test centre?

i checked in at 8:15 and waited 3 hours before starting.

it was so ridiculous.

Screw the fact that I finished on time - now as I reflect upon the test I feel like there was a giant hole in my thought process during the second game. Gah.

I thought I maybe missed 3 or 4 at MOST on October LG as I finished early. -8 spread out throughout all games

No, let's stick to D

you have no idea how much I hope this is right....

What order were the games in again? I remember the first was the one that had no room for diagrams, which was followed by the infamous windows game.

I think the LG were fine as long as you (me) gave the correct amount of time to each one. I always work tests backwards...I think test creators always try and trick people and put the most challenging questions at the beginning therefore, I reverse order.

On another note because of external stimulus (home stuff) the first section, RC took me the first 15 minutes before I could get in a real zone and start thinking on the level that I needed.

If you are reading this and you are fresh out of undergraduate with no mortgage, no children and no spouse make your moves now for law school. Trying to achieve academic success with life in your back pocket is really challenging....

Utilities, Stained Glass, Conferences, G4 (can't remember but it was easy).

Or at least start before you HAVE all of those things! (In the same boat, Superwoman. I feel you.)

edit.

Not to mention that having kids gives you "diaper brain." Can't wait to refer to that in my personal statement.
