No, that sounds like proper BR technique. Good job!

What's everyone studying today?

Gave myself a one month mental break and am starting fresh again. Used up all my PTs but I guess I have no choice but to re-use them. Looks like I'll be trying to blind review method. Ordered the LSAT trainer as well for the hell of it.

You just took two giant leaps toward a successful take.

Gah, I really hope so... the Feb test trucked me and that was my second take (first try was a cancel that I foolishly thought was a good idea to take without serious prep). Gotta get it right this time!

Are you supposed to blind review immediately after taking a PT or can you give yourself some time in between?

rebexness · Post by **rebexness** » Sun Mar 09, 2014 7:23 pm

PT 48

Felt pretty good about the first section, the LGs felt odd but doable (one question that i couldn't figure out during the test), RC felt very approachable. 2nd LR was a little goofy at the end- clearly I was tired. Taken as a 4 section with break after 3rd section.

LR 1: -1
LG: -1
RC: -4
LR 2: -6
Total: -12
Total Raw: 89
Score 167

Can't get motivated because I'm following the leaks from Spivey about the new USNWR rankings.

have you guys actually signed up for the test yet? the two test centers closest to me aren't available, so I'm wondering if it's just too early or if I should make other plans...

There are less centers available for June. I'm gonna have to change my plan, as well. At least it's an afternoon test.

Nice RC! I've been feeling a little tired towards the end, too. I'm gonna start PTing with 5-6 sections.

SA Drilling today supah hahd

What about you guys?

jk148706 · Post by **jk148706** » Mon Mar 10, 2014 11:34 pm

Another PT today (even though I said I was gonna focus on drilling).

PT 58.
LR1: -2
LR2: -1
LG: -1
RC: -1

Raw 97
Scaled 175

I took this PT exactly five months ago, but seeing it before definitely boosted my score. I have a couple PTs in the 40s I haven't seen, but otherwise I've seen most PTs and that has me worried. I still haven't seen 71 yet, but I'm not sure when I should take that for the first time.

Kind of frustrating I don't have fresh stuff to use
