Re: The Official December 2015 Study Group
Those of you who are working full time, how many hours are you able to put in a day? What is your study schedule like?

Re: The Official December 2015 Study Group
I feel ya, and agree with all of that. But after I bombed the October LSAT (-8 from my PT average), I'm heading into the December LSAT with renewed focus. It's my 3rd retake too, so gonna really give it my all. That said, more realistically, I feel myself following a similar study schedule to yours.PatriotP74 wrote:Danimals18 wrote:Those of you who are working full time, how many hours are you able to put in a day?

While I haven't gotten in deep yet for this take, for October I would try to put in 1-3 hours a day depending on how I was feeling. Grinding through the LSAT isn't quite like sports, if you keep working your mind when you are tired you wont get anything out of it. I plan to try to devote at least an average of 2 hours a day after work to studying and however much I can on the weekends. The best amount of time is however much you can comfortably put in while awake and focused!

Re: The Official December 2015 Study Group
Same boat with the third take. It's been really hard studying full time but I think 1-3 hours is good...I honestly don't think doing at PT after work is gonna happen for me. I'll be wasting a PT because my mind just won't be there. I think just drilling/reviewing is good for the weekdays and then the weekends are for PTs and serious grinding. I'm gonna start PTs the first weekend of November.Danimals18 wrote:I feel ya, and agree with all of that.

When are other people starting to do their PTs?

Re: The Official December 2015 Study Group
Tough for me to find the time to study, but I try to do 1-2 hours a day after work, depending on the day I had teaching. Just did 164 on PT 63.. Still struggling with LG.

Re: The Official December 2015 Study Group
so i am trying to figure out a plan to improve RC, but i don't have any fresh tests. i have done the Manhattan RC book and Trainer for RC but it didn't make a difference for me.
i have tried reading the passage both fast (in 2-2:30 min) and slow (3:30-4:30 min) and i end up missing about the same.
those who aced the oct rc after improving in this section, how did you do so?
(if you can say without spoiling pt-76 for those who haven't taken it) is 75 RC or 72 RC closer to the current RC trend?
