LR scores literally have not improved for months. Forum

You mean you're going 20-21 correct per section right?

I'm assuming yes, since you said you're in the low 160's.

Print out every level 4 question (maybe even level 3 since they can also be pretty hard) from Cambridge, make two copies, Time yourself. Go through them, as you do them, make sure to take note of your reasoning - basically write down why you're eliminating an answer and why you're choosing an answer. After you do this, do it again, except this time DON'T time yourself. This time go through every problem slowly and carefully. Grade both.

Look at your trends... level 4 questions tend to be questions from 18-25/26, so that's toward the end of the section. Look at which ones you get wrong more often, look at why you crossed off the correct answer choice the first time, but maybe not the second time. If you got it wrong both times, chances are you're missing something fundamental for that question type, or maybe its a particular type of question (science questions KILL me, so I drill those periodically).

A thing I notice with myself is that whenever I see the number 20 and up on a question I subconsciously prepare myself for some weird LSAT trick..... when almost invariably there isn't one! You might have that same problem, there's few difference in the actual correct answer choices, as they all follow the same logical form. The difference is in language, so just by doing as many problems you can with that type of language you'll start seeing a pattern.

Thanks to everyone in this thread, recently just got 24/and 20 correct on lr sections from 68 that I just PT'd.

Got only 16 correct on reading comp though.. looks like a whack a mole game is beginning once again :/

anyway, ended with a 162.

thanks again. will be back to provide questions I had trouble with as the powerscore rep asked!
