Looks like weird (harder?) LG is a trend now based on the last two tests. I'm starting to get nervous about LG... trying to find hard games for practice...

Not harder. Weirder is all IMO. It's all about getting to them with enough time and getting over the initial shock.

I'd maybe work on trying to do games just differently. I'm not certain it would help, but perhaps try a few games relying on rule driving rather than scenarios.

yo 34, get out of here. you just got a 180 on the December test you don't need to be here

Haha. Not taking in Feb, but I have so much love and lurking to go around.

Signed up for Brooklyn Law test center right now. I got a really weird experimental LG during the September administration. Wish there was a way to get another look at it

How long do you TSLers think it takes to complete the 7sage course? I'm undecided about purchasing with t minus 8 weeks to go.

More generally, I also can't decide whether to take Feb or June 2017 as my first test (first time poster here). I've read both Powerscore LG and LR bibles, drilled several individual sections along the way, and taken one full PT as a quasi diagnostic (I had already started studying for a few weeks) with a score of 159.

I work full time, and my goal is 171-173 if possible, so I may take a full PT in the next few days to see where I'm at before the registration deadline for Feb hits. I'd defer to June if I weren't going to be looking for a new job in the spring, which would invariably cripple my studying efforts starting a new job and all.

Any advice?

Wrt 7sage, I just started on Tuesday and I'm almost finished with the first week's curriculum. I plan on trying to finish by early January and then spending that month on PTs and drilling. I'd go ahead and get it either way. There's some very good information on building basic skills that I haven't found anywhere else.

Thanks yeah I've heard it's great for LG especially, which is still my weakest section. I'll prob either commit to Feb after this weekend and buy a 7sage package or defer to June and buy it in Jan.

Took my first PT today. Exhausted, but satisfied with score as a starting point. My RC definitely needs work. Surprised I only went -6 after feeling so rushed and helpless during it.

I am a 49 year old male, who has 17 years experience as a Texas State Trooper. I'm currently going through the process of retiring due to two back surgeries. I am no longer able to wear all the equipment etc. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Criminal Justice with a GPA of 3.90. I will be considering University of Texas Law, University of Houston Law, South Texas College of Law and Saint Mary's Law in San Antonio. UT is my best option because I would not have to move. I am considering the February test, but also the June test. What material would you suggest I purchase? Are the classes available worth the expense? Thanks for any input. Ed

You're right. Got mixed up. That's where I'm signed up. You see how prepared I am lol

Made an lsatqa account to track PT's.
Going over what I missed today and drill some.

[Rigo]

Oh wait I just realized lsatqa doesn't have the more modern 70+ LSATs.
7Sage Analytics it is.

7Sage is the best option if you are a motivated self-studier.

I also think Manhattan and The LSAT Trainer are really good too as supplements.

Also, purchase every PT you can get your hands on. The more the better.

I'm thinking a PT every Saturday and Wednesday starting with PT this Saturday. So 67-80 full PT's.
Anyone else have a schedule?

I'm currently taking 2 a week as well. If either of you are down to BR via facetime/skype/fb video let me know

Wowow
Got a 173* on PT 45. Big disclosure is that I didn't do it as a 5 section so I may have suffered more with stamina issues if I had, but encouraging nonetheless.

I'm mainly trying to get a few PT's under my belt so I can gauge where I'm having problems and drill appropriately.

*scored wrong :/

[njames1961]

Just took my first non-diagnostic PT, got a 167, still can't decide whether to register for Feb or wait til June....

Shooting for a 173, is it possible with what little time there is left before Feb?? Or should I scratch it and wait for June

Help

I'd say it's possible.
You can always sign up for Feb and postpone closer to the test if you feel you're not ready.

[pleex]

Checking in for Feb. Will take it in HU, is there anyone else taking it in Hawaii also?

[PrezRand]

Really starting to get scared

[34iplaw]

Really starting to get scared

Don't be scared, yo. It's gonna be eezy peezy. You also have kind of a long time until then.

Also, looking for feedback on my site/project if anyone from Feb wants to PM me and gimme your thoughts.

Merci beaucoup!
