Feel ya. I'm just slogging through these old RC sections to feel like I've done something. I just want advil and a nap rn. -_-
bruh i had the illest headache today at my internship, really needed an advil but no one had one, rip.
aw man that sucks hard D': I hope you have some headache med now.

tried to start a third RC section and was just like nope. I'm just gonna go close my eyes for a sec, w/e.
Lmao RC blow man, I swear.. if I get an experimental RC again in September, I kid you not, I'll cry. It might be internally, but it will happen.

Every one of my 5th sections for PT's is RC, just to prepare for bad luck. haha

Oh god, y u do dis lmao.. It's a good idea to get used to that imo, but I'm going to go slow with it... Experimental will start out as LG.. then LR... and then.. :roll: RC.

I hope for LG as an experimental, even if it has some screwed up game in it I would rather that than RC.

Speaking of RC, RC FOCUS TOMORROW, YAYYYYYYyyyyyyooooooo fml.

I realized all of my 5th sections thus far have been LG, mostly for convenience cause I can just grab a few that I've photocopied, but I gotta start switching those to LR and RC for sure. (also been doing them 3rd section but i should probs switch that up too)

RC does fuckin blow man but we can't let it defeat us. WE WILL PREVAIL.

Do you guys know which tests include the comparative RC passages? 50s/60s? I want to drill some of them to be accustomed to the new PT format.

Did game 4 from PT35 (one that I just didn't even attempt lol) and got it in 4:35! Still missed one. I move too quick sometimes. Bah. But big improvement as I was feeling deflated after getting marked by them on Thursday.

Doing a bunch of flaw questions tonight.

Lesson always is: Drill Drill Drill Drill Drill.

Also, how many PTs have folks taken and are planning to take? I want to work my way up through all the ones I can purchase easily on Amazon before the test (not counting 40 to 51). Good idea or nah?
I've taken 6 PTs (including the diagnostic) and plan on taking around 25. I definitely plan on doing PTs 53 to whatever the last one is (78 I think)

Took the June '07 as a diag when I started 7 sage. That's the only one I've taken.


Starting next week I'm going from PT 50-75 til the exam @ 2 a week w/ BR and any additional drilling that I need from the 7sage problem sets.

Nice! :D

I have taken four of the 50s and up so far. I intend to take all of the 50s+ and will (I think already have) broken into all of the earlier ones for drilling and such.

I plan on ~20-23, so all the 60s, 70s, and some of the 50s. The 40s and 50s I'll use as experimentals.

Gonna give it one more shot. PT'D today 5 points lower than my February. I feel rusty as hell.

Anybody using the LSAT Trainer currently? I started off way back when with PowerScore but found just doing the PTs to really help.

Just took a cycling class. Burnt 750 calories, and my shirt is SOAKED with sweat. Good way to start the day.

Today I'm starting my drilling of the new PT's. Hopefully can eliminate some of the sloppy mistakes yesterday that cost me 5 points.

-6 actually. 175 overall. Which is a score I'd totally be ok with on test day, but why not try and improve it?

LIES. You're the 180 dank master, I refuse to believe you got more than 1 wrong.

But yeah I know you can definitely improve it, and that's the best thing to do since we're 2 months away. Plus, I know you're totally capable of fixing whatever issue it was that caused your -6 :)

Haha, what's funny is a few months ago I was PRAYING for a 172. Now I get a 175 and I'm like "dammit!"

And you're gonna get that 175+! I'd be ecstatic with a 172, but then again if I even get a flat out 170 I'd be doing back flips, but that's me lol.

Tbh, I don't care if I get a 150 as long as I can go to a t14 debt free. The only reason I'm trying to increase my score at this point is for a cushion, ya know?

Yeah I get you man, keep grinding and it will be over soon! Well, the LSAT part at least...lmao. Graduating debt free from a T14 would be amazing, and I think with your above 4.0 GPA and a solid LSAT, you'll get it from AT LEAST 1 of the T14.

Hey who knows, maybe a few of us ITT will end up in the same school haha. I've lurked the c/o 2019 threads and a few of them are going to the same schools and some are in the same sections! That's cray, lol

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
Just kidding ... it's still FREE!
