I only did that because I've heard rumors that people were taking screenshots of the chat which is not cool in my opinion at all.

If you would like I can repeat it just for you.

O.o from that day?? whered you hear that? I prob woulda popped off too lol and 22

No in general, so thats why I don't get on it.

Where did name Luka come from?

If that's too personal you don't have to answer.

Lololol. So, I was going to name him Benedict and one day I was browsing Tinder and saw a (rather attractive) guy with the name Benedict, so I thought "I could look for dog names on Tinder!!" And just a few short swipes later I landed on a "Luka." The rest is history :')

sorry to interrupt the reunion --- i just wanted to say that this is one of the best stories ever.

So went out of my way on my way home and got a vanilla bean mocha thingy from Starbucks lol its eh I guess... I better have energy to drill when I get home lol

[Learn_Live_Hope]

Has anybody ever played the tinder drinking game with friends? It's the only reason I have tinder.
Even though I don't drink anymore cuz LSAT.

I didn't even know what tinder was until now.

I see that Velocity LSAT now offers video explanations by Dave Hall for all question from tests 32-72. I find the RC and LR especially valuable. Go to their website --> Free Prep

Also, just wanted to remind people that it's the last day to sign up for the Free Online Games Course (complete with many lessons and video explanations for every game) from Odyssey Test Prep.

Both are incredibly useful resources.

Thank you so much for this. I was already using the Odyssey just to refresh my thought process. Seems pretty good. The Velocity videos look promising.

You can interrupt any time.

Hehe thankkks ya'll too funny.

anyway, checking in again (that's why we have this thread right?). Kinda nervous to post this up since the I know the TLS community is pretty damn intense with all the high scorers but I figured I should hold myself accountable through this. So congrats to all yall that's been scoring really high or that this stuff comes very naturally to you but there are peeps like me that need a lot more work and time to get up there! But I have faith that I'll get there one day :')

I just completed my blind review and scored my PT 37 (only 4 sections for now.. will do 5 sections with later PTs) that I took a few days ago, and got a 157. Definitely not anywhere close to where I want to be but I just need to remind myself that I've already made progress! Almost a 10 point jump! I mean my cold diagnostic was a 148...

I went:
RC: -9 (frustrated because one passage threw me off completely)
LR: -7
LG: -8 (I didn't have enough time to start the last game.. so I guessed on all the questions for that game LOL)
LR: -7

^ I know I can definitely make improvements to that-- especially for the LG portion (I didn't even have enough time to get through the last game..), I definitely have not done enough drilling yet and I'm determined to make it -0 by the time the Dec test comes along!! As for LR, I'm confident that I can continue to make some more improvements there as well-- I'm starting to see where my weaknesses are!

Alrighty, now back to fully reviewing my mistakes and seeing where I can improve from here on out! Hope everyone else is making progress!

I have been drilling timed LR sections everyday for the past 2 weeks with intense review. Recorded my personal best yesterday -4 on one section (-2 ran out of time, did not guess I just count them as misses and -2 misread words).

Hoping and praying to get to -2 per LR section by the middle of October, if I can achieve that I would feel like a rock star. I have been inactive here lately but I lurk every now and again. Keep on keeping on folks

Edit: wrong emoticon. I wanted to wink not roll my eyes
