I never broke 170 on a PT before October and only took two late 60s again (getting 171 and 173 last week which I just figured were a product of retesting) other than studying.

If this really is the power of reading the question stem first then I hate entire summer self who thought PS was a godsend.
Be proud. As I've stated before, 40s LR is a mindfuck, and not to mention 41 has the bizarre circle game.
Hopefully I can keep it up on PT 42 on Monday. Can we consider circle games irrelevant at this point?

For now...until there's one on 71.

Odds are, though, they'll stay irrelevant.

...it took me 4 attempts to make it to the end

I was surprised by the GPA poll results. I'm interested to see the average score that the 3.9Xs are retaking.

That first one made me too sad so I stopped. I majored and worked in film/tv and I only got 14 out of 30 for that tv openings one.

174 on PT 65. it was a retake though. I can safely say that the retake boosted the LR a couple questions. I went a total of -9 on LR last time, but that was a about 2 months ago and I have greatly improved in LR in that time span. Didn't remember answer choices or the correct answer, but i'm sure (as everyone seems to agree) that there is some boost. I actually did worse on the RC than on the first go around... and LG stayed the same.

-1 LR1
-0 LG
-0 LG (PT 61)
-7 RC (my timing was awful)
-1 LR2

I think I am going to start sticking in a second RC as my experimental in all my tests. #1 more practice, #2 heightens fatigue factor, #3 it is my worst section.

Sporcle - Name the Fruits
40/42. Much better than my 12/16s on the opening lines of classic novels.

Sporcle scores have replaced practice exam scores

DAMNIT 40/42. (spoilers) missed hazelnut and horned melon

Haha. I missed horned melon and lychee

I think after a week of mostly slacking I've finally convinced myself that I'm excited to study tonight. About to do 100 pages of the LSAT Trainer...Oh, how fun Saturday nights are now.

how does one CRAM for LSAT
i cant CRAM for the lsat but i can at least cram learning velocity strategies. hoapfully.

To what company do your strategies most conform to as it is? Granted, we develop our idiosyncratic tendencies as we go.

Would do many things to hear your customization. Hope to feel as comfortable as you on LR/RC.

So I don't know if I'm rusty or starting to overthink, but I'm drilling reading comprehension questions and I'm getting like -5 to -7 wrong on some sections, when I used to (when I was studying for the October) go around -2 or -3 max. It might be current brain fog, eyesight is getting weird, I don't know.

Any suggestions on good RC books or good RC threads/methods to get back on track? Or perhaps, just ways to review RC sections rather than sitting there and say - well that's a little detail I didn't read. Or that makes sense.
Only 4 more weeks left and I want to get to -0 to -1.
