Moving this Friday/Saturday/Sunday....

Good news is that my new place is so much nicer and I'll be alone and have my own space. Also, the street/building I'll be in is way quieter.

Moving sucks though, nonetheless.

Nope untimed, since I'm adapting to this method. Once I get confident with the method, I'll move to timing myself.

I'm reviewing the science passages right now (passage AND questions) on 7Sage, and apparently JY was just as befuddled as I was with the Donna Haraway Primatology passage. It made me feel better knowing I'm not alone lol :lol:

Went -2 on that one too when I did it.
That book is at my library and I'm so close to checking it out.

One post closer to 180 (although I'd gladly take a 177)

Went against my caramel macchiato religion and got what 34iplaw said a while back.

Venti(34 said trenta but I got a venti) iced coffee with one sugar free vanilla pump and one sugar free caramel pump, with nonfat milk as well. It's not so bad, I like it but it has a weird after taste but it's not bad :)

Haha - Yeah... it does a bit. I think it's a worthy sacrifice to save the ~200 calories (probably more... I've never understood why they insist on putting so much more caramel in a skinny version of the macchiato though! I've had people put in so much that it was like 1/8" deep.

It's good though. Honestly, I really wanted a white mocha but the barista at Starbucks today was a guy who makes it really bad so I chose to try this out.

Finished up the BR for the LR in 49.

Should be able to take care of RC tomorrow after work.

After looking at 7Sage Analytics for 5 PTs, it is clear I need to work on SA and NA questions.

Going to take this next week off from PTing and hit the Cambridge Packets.

Got hired today for a job in sales/recruiting so I'm pretty excited on one hand, but on the other hand I'm going to have to grind like hell on LSAT stuff for the next 2 weeks (when my job starts) just because I won't be able to put in the high # of hours I previously had been able to once I start

Get to drilling! Drill baby drillllllll! I took a break yesterday from studying, it suited me well. I should start using 7sages analytics but i usually try to see patterns on my own by writing what Q type I missed while timed and just seeing how often it happens. I give myself more work, lmao.

I do this, too!

This helped me identify the fact I struggle with SA/NA along with the analytics.

I do like how the 7Sage analytics help your prioritize by organizing by both how often you miss questions and how common that type is.

Yeah it's a nice tool. When you individual timed sections do you also input that into the analytics?

Not really.

To be honest, I didn't realize you could do this until after I had moved on from timed sections :oops: :mrgreen: .

I find it really difficult to say since I've drilled so many of these individually, but I think 23's a bit nasty. 29, 31, 34, and 36 have at least one game that's fairly difficult (36 being the worst imo) but I'm not sure how overall difficulty of the sections are.

I'm not sure if I should ask this or not, but I'm kind of curious what the most difficult game sections from 51-77 are. Not sure if I should prioritize getting them done sooner so I can drill 'em like crazy, or save some for closer to the end so I've had recent experience dealing with hard, unfamiliar games under pressure on test day.

Checking in - haven't been here for a while. Decided to do the December retake - work has been killing me lately, and I want to enjoy summer evenings after work.

How's everyone doing?

Just consolidated all the logic games from PT 20-67 into one PDF. That took some time! It's 200 pages.
