I understand the passage perfectly, but when I find the answer easily, Im always like, "No, they wouldn't make it this easy on the 4th passage. There must be some underlying logic that I'm missing. And then I change the answer to some convoluted answer that I made work in my head. :roll:
I saw a lot of improvement when I told myself I could never change an answer in my LR for questions 1-14 and for Reading comp at all....Even when I got a few wrong that I didn't change, it was exponentially better than when I went back and changed answers

I was doing that when I was studying for the June LSAT and with TLS now, I kinda lost interest. But I'm back to looking over profiles again thanks to apple!!

I've got a 3 high school buddies with similar numbers who are at Harvard, Stanford and Columbia, so I haven't been on LSN all that much. I've focused my energy on bugging the living shit out of them instead.

Can these LSN's be real!? Inspiring so much hope. I have significantly better stats than some of those and I'd be eternally grateful to get into some of those LS's.

After already applying to a law school, how would I go about submitting a Why X statement. (Specifically asking regarding GULC if that makes a difference)
