I'm a heavy coffee drinker (enough to stun or kill a small animal). I cut it to a small amount for the test but I doubt it makes a difference.

Keep up your regular caffeine intake or supplement it/replace it with Synchro Genesis.

I make a coffee drink with synchro ...

I took the lsat in October and haven't looked at anything since then. Any tips on how to get the ball rolling again? Today has been .... discouraging

also, I probably won't start for another two weeks since I burned through all the materials so far. just curious!
I don't know if i will have to re-take…still waiting on my score, but if I do I will be here. If you need anything let me know

Im just re-organizing my material right now preparing it just in case i need to re-take

I just took it in February, canceled my score, knew it wouldn't be where I needed it to be because I froze up on one of the sections. I'm taking a break until the second week in March, then hitting up the practice tests again every weekend and section practices during the week. Hopefully I won't have lost too much of what I learned in just a few weeks.

I imagine it will get busier in here when the Feb scores come back.

Noap.

I've been drilling today and it's gone OK. Thinking about PTing tomorrow to see where I am.

Ah yeah, we need some motivation. I remember the Oct thread bing active and it was so helpful day in, day out when I was struggling to stay focused

How about we post an update on what we've done recently?

I'm still working on the Trainer, currently doing RC. I'm supposed to be taking PT 57 this weekend so if anyone would like to take/review it together, just let me know.

Yeah this worked for the Oct thread big time.

Today was literally the first lsat stuff I've done since October (my biggest regret this cycle is not retaking in Dec).

I did the games and one LR section from PT 47: -0 lg, -2 LR

PT50 LR section, -2

Drilled some other games as well, -0

Felt weird, but good to get back. I think tomorrow I will take PT 70 to see where I am. For my prep this time, I'm definitely going to focus on review more than just PTing

jk148706 · Post by **jk148706** » Fri Feb 21, 2014 12:12 pm

About to take PT70. Actually sat for this test in Oct, and scored a 170. We will see how today goes, I will report back later

FlyingNorth · Post by **FlyingNorth** » Fri Feb 21, 2014 12:49 pm

Almost finished skimming through the LG Bible (per NoodleyOne's Guide). I've drilled about 60 games so far, all types, and 7saged the hell out of each one. Those that I didn't absolutely murder, I've marked to redo.

I'll be taking PT 41 at the end of this month when I finish LG drilling, at which point I'll start going through the Trainer and drilling LR questions by type.
