Is it an unusual type or just really hard?

I'm studying tomorrow. 3.5 months. Now or never, I suppose. I've dawdled way too much.
LG here I come. Gonna take a PT later in the week. Hoping I have one of those big boosts some people get after spending a lot of time off.

Oh that one was fun. Sorry it gave you trouble.
Once you gain familiarity with those linking games, you'll be fine.

Is it even a linking game? There are no conditionals so I didn't think of it like that and I've never linked anything into a pentagram/circle before.

I just made up a term.

And 7Sage told you to do a pentagram/circle?
I just did it linear iirc. Maybe I forget though.

LGB has a section on circle games

Hoping my game techniques come back to me quickly. I expect they will. I'll just be sure to not get complacent this time. Thanksgiving break really stunted me for December in terms of LG. I came back from vacation super rusty.

Looked up game 4 on PT 38 and went -0, but it only took like....12 hrs?

Extremely weird game. I also kinda took an educated guess on the last Q. Hopefully 7sage pwns it.

You'll definitely come back rusty but I feel it's like riding a bike...you never truly forget. Keep pushing.

This is how I feel about RC...but don't stress yourself out, man. 7 is plenty for a day and burn out is a bitch.

Started todays studying doing a few parallel flaw questions. Scored a 23/24. Untimed.
Level 1: 6/6
Level 2: 7/7
Level 3: 5/5
Level 4: 5/6

the one mistake i made was due to my carelessness. BUT a wrong answer is a wrong answer. Is this an easy type that normally everyone does well with? (Maybe i shouldnt be too happy)

First attempt btw

Parallel/matching is the LG of LR.

RZ5646 · Post by **RZ5646** » Mon Feb 23, 2015 10:03 pm

Finally finished the last couple chapters of Manhattan LR today. There's a typo on page 575.

Why the hell isn't there an August LSAT? June and September/October are terrible times.

Taking pt c tomorrow for my third pt. About six weeks in. Been through the trainer lgb and skimmed mlsat lg also. Coupled with drills. Hopefully there's a significant bump from my increased confidence with lg now. After this pt I'll dive into mlsat lr and skim lrb

a_parm · Post by **a_parm** » Tue Feb 24, 2015 12:33 pm

Plans for today:
Do few SA and NA questions
Pick 1 game type and do about 7 games.
Read atleast 70 pgs of the trainer.
Go through 7sage course for about an hr.

Started drilling RC again, and it's going super well. Really ready to take a PT and see where all this work has gotten me.

When you say drilling to you mean the cambridge packets? And when you take the PT is it one from 39-70? Sorry I am just trying to catch on and develop a better study process
