Finished PT 57 today:
LR 1: -7
LR 2: -2
LG: -2 (those damn time-killing dinosaurs)
RC: -0

90 / 101 = 170. Obviously happy with the score, but I'm starting to get mildly annoyed (read: unbelievably angry) with my LR sections. This is the third PT in a row where I've gotten -8 combined, but each time I've done significantly worse on one section than the other (the first was -6, -2; the other was also -7, -1). Any thoughts? Is this just a sign of bad fundamentals?
imo it's not a sign of bad fundamentals. some lr sections are definitely much tougher than the others. if you look through the previous posts on this thread then you'd see that others also lost many more points on 57-lr1 than they did on lr2.
take the june test pt-72 for that matter. rc was crazy tough than usual and lr2 was tougher than lr1 based on distribution of takers' section scores.

I am really struggling with RC as far as the "art" passages. I usually miss 0-1 on all other types of passages, but on those I miss as much as 3-4.

Any advice on how to work on this? I plan on shifting my studying these last few weeks to focus on drilling these types of passages, but I was just wondering if anyone had any advice on how to best attack these types of passages?

Is this a daily thing, or do you just take it before a prep test?

Tell me more please. I am a 110 lb female who does not cook and does not like kale. My little brother once gave me some of his protein powder and it was disgusting. Is this like vitamins without the gross?

It's probably (most likely) total horse shit, but I'm taking these wellness pills until the test because I'm really scared of getting sick before it. I don't get sick frequently, but when I do, it's like 3-4 weeks of death so I'm not risking it. http://www.amazon.com/Source-Naturals-W ... B000GFSVI2

I made the mistake of smelling them before I took my first one - terrible idea. They're like a bad combo of garlic/olive/typical vitamin smell.

My fiancé saw me on TLS and started a little chant...

"Re-fresh, T-L-S...re-fresh, T-L-S..."

I know every1 ITT knows the refresh feel

I only checked TLS on my phone like 13 times.
That's not bad at all

Did you have to explain any TLS sitches to anyone? Like did u casually say "I R L"
Even though you are in real life
