Expecting you to send this to me when you're done with it, smalls.
would love to, but no can do, someone else has dibs
Tell me who is going to mysteriously disappear.

Dirigo, I'll give you my 180 watch when you take. Unless shit hits the fan in June, I'm not planning on touching LSAT after June. Just message me after early Julyish, and I'll hook you up.

Based on TT, there's only like 5-6 TLSers taking the June test? It seems like a very small group at least.

ETA: This is definitely a representative and all encompassing sample size.

Florida Coastal would be an amazing place to go to school if you were delusional and naive. It's like 15 minutes from the beach.

I am having a hard time with grouping games. I have been drilling for the last couple of days, but I still find myself stumped on certain questions (even if I know exactly how the games are setup). Any pointers?
what type of grouping games? Grouping and sequencing? Have you referred to 7Sage explanations?

eta: can't remember all the grouping types
In and out grouping games, for example, Dec 2001 game question 5. The one with the fruits at a fruit stand.

I have tried the 7sage. Mostly helpful.

I don't know maybe my thinking is wrong or I need to go through a checklist in my head when I do certain question.

Can't believe the actual studiers didn't address this, you guys are dropping the ball here... For In and Out games, try looking up Manhattan's approach, it's very interesting and at first seems counterintuitive, but after i timed myself doing it their way and doing it the "normal" (7sage) way, it really was ab the same time used and it was helpful with making complete inferences, bc that may be one of your issues.

Hey guys, retaking in June and have a few questions. I bought both Manhattan LR and RC books, and then also the LGB. First time studying I only used the Princeton Review book which seems more like just a general guide compared to these 3. Scored a 160 and thought it was great till I applied to a bunch of schools and found this site haha. I've been reading this site a lot since then (took in June '14) and was looking at starting to drill questions by type. Seen many people rave about the Cambridge packets. From my understanding, its $280 to download the PDFs alone. How did you guys print all these out a reasonable cost.. it seems like 600+ pages. Then for drilling these questions, you do about 20-25 at a time untimed? Or would you give yourself 30/35 minutes. Thanks in advanced!

This fucking school...

I have internal memos from my UG with admins bragging about how many grads got into law school, all made possible by 3+ attending Florida Coastal.

ETA: Small UG, the 3 to Florida Coastal was more than 10% of those accepted that year.

Either find someone/some place you know that gives unlimited printing or buy a really cheap laser-jet printer and bite the bullet on costs of paper.

ETA: I do all drills untimed. Some people assemble them proportionally by difficult into sections by type and do timed. It's really about preference. I think there are enough PTs that timing can be worked on through those primarily, if not exclusively.

Chobo to the rescue! Nobody disappears, ~~everybody wins~~!
rigo you have my blessing to disappear OP if you feel like someone must disappear

I'm pretty sure LLH is the one who reserved smalls' watch, so nobody was gonna have to disappear anyway. However, knowing Don toki is giving his blessing to make people disappear has me lookin' over my shoulder...good thing me and the grandbunny are tight af...we are right??

I went through five reams of paper and two toner cartridges when I was studying for the February test. If you're going to do the printing yourself, you absolutely must get a laser printer. The cost per page is something like two cents, compared to at least ten cents per page for an inkjet. I got the cheapest model Brother laser printer a few years ago for $50 on sale. It's been fantastic and paid for itself many times over.

Omg push. Your tar. Well played.

Cuts off a bit too high, no? If push goes just a bit lower it would be a fantastic tar.

Idea for the next poll:

Best Simile/metaphor describing TT:

1. farting at the library
2. a 3-legged race
3. a person whose credit card is declined
4. sneezing a booger on someone
5. a virgin on their wedding night
6. it's a tough road to hoe
7. we'll burn that bridge when we come to it [x]
8. let me run this around you
9. His temper brewed like a hot cup of coffee. (understood His)
10. Got more problems than a math book.

I really think/hope you guys will be ready for a waiter's thread in the near future. Sincerest regards.

eta: my vote
