oh man I feel like I got wrecked by both the LR sections from PT 70 however, I did go -0 on LG (scored that section since I won't BR it) and feel good about the RC. I'm gonna start BR tonight but idk if I'll finish

edit: well apparently the first LR section was only 2/5 difficulty on 7Sage so maybe I need to warm up more hehe. whatever, I guess we'll see when I actually score it.

Fuck, -2 on another LG pack. Stupid, sloppy errors.

My Yogi tea quote is: "Act, don't react."

I'm taking it as a sign, that I should act with the Memory method and not react with my recent RC dips!

So, I sincerely recommend trying out the 7sage Memory Method on Economist articles. You don't burn materials, you deal with denser passages, and you work on retention.

Dec 05 LR 1 #19 is a garbage question IMO... I don't get how (B) is wrong and (A) is right...

I just watched the lesson explanation (twice) and submitted a ticket on it... I didn't get it wrong for any of the reasons stated on the video... I fully understand all of the cosmetic differences there. That said, the video says that the stimulus doesn't make an overgeneralization, but it *definitely* does unless one uses an *extremely broad and wrong* definition of habitually... in fact, the reason they give for (B) being wrong is exactly why I think it is right...

Someone else care to answer, I've been getting some guy that gives kind of crappy explanations IMO.

Some guy's subscription has been coming to my mailbox. I feel a bit bad since they're not mine, but I'm not complaining.
Great idea using those for the memory method - I'll try that.

So in light of the recent LG disaster(s) - my new plan is taking practice PTs from the 40s, where I've seen the LR but not the LG, with LG at the very end. Might do 6 sections, we'll see. Obviously not the most ideal, because it takes much more mental energy to get through an unfamiliar LR than a familiar LR, but it's the best I can think of, and I'm not really sure where else to go from here.

Suggestions, anymore?

Guess i've been out of the game too long, but that PT completely exhausted me. Gotta build my endurance back up. I can barely think post test

yeah I usually just relax on the computer, listen to music, and BR so it feels a bit more relaxing.

Major props to people who are actually able to go right from a PT to BR. Man...

They probably use the online version, so win-win!

Sweet! I'll go with that

Idk how people do it, it's exhausting! I can only BR in the same day if I do like 1 or 2 sections and THAT'S IT. A whole PT is just crayy bruh

Why not use the LG from the 40s as timed sections, as in do them as timed sections. Make a fresh/extra copy of all the LG though (unless you have them in PDF), and use the more recent tests for PT's.

Yah. I only BR immediately if its an LR drill from Cambridge. Even with RC when I was reviewing, I took a break (usually lunch lol) and then went at it.

I don't know I think it's better to wait until the next day, so you won't be biased by your preconceived notions following a PT.

Being biased about your preconceived notions isn't even the biggest issue imo. The biggest issue is that the person will be tired, and might not do such a thorough review as they should because they feel like getting it over with. I used to do this back when I first did PTs a while ago, and it's definitely not the way to go. Unless of course, the person is a maniac and never feels fatigue, haha.

True Story!

[ngogirl12]

Finally finished LG drilling. One thing I caught myself on was an M, N rule. It was something like M->-J and -O and N->J. Luckily I caught myself after glancing at the rules for a quick second, that could have been a major faux pas!!

About to hit the chapter of Grouping Distribution games then RC.

Happy studying everyone!!
