But it narrows it down to just the north part of the country. Now was it closer to the Atlantic or Pacific?

Jgoods is from the NYC metro area. So I'm thinking an upstate NY school or UVM (Vermont)

Rigo, I thought you were studying for the LSAT... what is with this crazy flaw

Everyone I know from the NYC area thinks its the best area and doesn't stray too far from there. And upstate NY and UVM are both close to NYC and Canada, so I don't think its too flawed

not saying its not a unreasonable assumption exactly, just its flawed....

Hey guys, do any of you remember doing a PT with a RC passage on deconstruction (some literary passage)? I remember having some difficulty with it and have been trying to track it down. I want to redo it.

Smaller schools but I think SUNY Postdam/Canton or Clarkson are good possibilities.

Or the university of buffalo. One of my roomies in undergrad was from the Buffalo area & lived somewhere near the border

Suny Buffalo is the quintessential school that is extremely close to Canada and many students from NYC attend.

I made RC sections using the Cambridge PT 1-38 RC Packets like a month ago and did like two of them. LOL.

I'm thinking of getting a Scientific America and/or New Yorker magazine subscription for Xmas. Or whatever the other recommended supplementary reading materials are.

I've got The Economist and recommend it. You learn so much about current events in depth. haha

I have subscriptions to Scientific American and the Economist. Scientific American is actually pretty interesting (consider getting it even outside the LSAT). This isnt to say that its not relevant though - because they have boring/dense ones as well. I remember reading an article of bird migration a few weeks ago and all I could think about while reading it was wow, this is exactly the type of shit that would be on the LSAT.

The economist on the other hand. my god. Feel like stabbing my eyes with a pencil. Straight up boring AF.

Is it def structured like RC passages and/or could foreseeably help someone with RC?
I may also try learning to spreed (speed read).

I think so just because the content is so dense. Some of the international political articles can get more dense than a RC passage, so in that sense, reading articles of these sorts can be beneficial if you find yourself zoning out on RC. Taking a PT in a week so I'll let you know if there's any RC progress, lol...but so far, I feel really good going through LR and RC lessons on 7Sage.

LOL bird migration, I wouldve thought the same bro.
But yeah, The Economist can get dense AF. I'm a business major so I find a lot of the economic ones just fine but some of the international political ones bore me to sleep.

Dude, screw everything about those finance articles. I was so annoyed reading those that at one point I was considering looking up an intro finance class online just to get through a article, even though I imagine its pretty basic financial concepts. And the international politics....lets just say I'm a political science major and those articles would still knock me out clean. Not really the hardest to understand, but damn, is it boring.
