Damn, I missed 3 of the 8 questions in that second section, missed five overall of the ones I got to and missed four more of the five I threw blind guesses on due to lack of time. -9 total. Kill me. -7 LR and -4AR (ran out of time for the last four questions and didn't guess any right). 163 as a final score. fml.

I think I was way more prepared this summer. Work and life has been getting in the way of studying. Taking a PT Saturday to see where I'm at.

Decided to wait a year until applying. Takes some of the pressure off of this test. Also decided to donate a kidney, so now the LSAT doesn't seem as scary in comparison. Haha

was this in any way inspired by the Vox article by Dylan Matthews? mad respect for this.

I'm too resigned to the disappointment of mediocrity to be scared.

lmfao at how miserable I am.

No, but I love Vox! I'll have to check that out.

Do you listen to The Weeds or the Esre Cline show?

oh wait it wasn't an article, but here is what I'm referring to: https://twitter.com/dylanmatt/status/767083878162935808

and I mainly just the read articles that seem interesting. I watch some of their videos as well, not sure what the titles of them are though lol. I like how diverse they are in their subjects and viewpoints.

Forward march. We can do this.

Literally got a "do we make you uncomfortable" talking to by my supervisor for skipping out on too many after work social events (because of LSAT, sleep, and LSAT). Jesus christ...

Classic! I had the same experience this summer. Hopefully, you can explain yourself and it's not a conflict of interest to explain that you are studying for LSAT Haha

That's hilarious. Glad I'm not the only one!
I think I just said that I was really busy outside of work and it wasn't anything to do with them. If it comes up again I'll definitely be more explicit.

Checking in!

I was feeling burnt out, then I logged on to TLS last night and was re-inspired by the dedication on here. I'm hoping this thread will help keep me motivated and hold me accountable. Let's put the pedal down. One more month.

29 RC
p1 5:00 read, 10:15 total min

p3 5:35 read, 9:10 total min
p4 2:45 read, 5:35 total min

-3 in 35 min

the platypus passage was a little bit complex, but these older rc clearly feel much easier than current ones.

39 lg
-0 in 30 min

I fucked up and didn't register for the September LSAT. Onto December I guess. On the brightside I have more time to try and break 170

[Alexandros]

Unplugged the wifi in my apartment. Here we go.

Only a passage and two game sets this morning since I was feeling weirdly out of it. Very mixed results, as I haven't been doing much for games lately because of the LR fiasco. Just want to get back to where I was at before tbh.

[proteinshake]

took the past 2 days off (aside from going over PT 67). feeling recharged and ready to go. I started sleeping with two pillows and at an incline, and wow it made a HUGE difference. I've been falling asleep far more quickly compared to when I was sleeping flat.

wot, why?

[Mikey]

Was going to do PT 70 today, but I have some RC stuff to go over, so I will be doing PT 70 tomorrow. Will BR it over Thursday and Friday.

I start school on Thursday
Not looking forward to it given that excluding 1 class, I'm just taking a bunch of BS electives to reach the credit limit at this point.

If there is a way to switch off the Internet except for anything lsat related, I'd be most interested

Trying to avoid distraction. I desperately need to get better at managing my time.

So far, having a successful day with RC. I've decided (and it's what I've been doing today) to go very in depth with some RC passages that I've done in the past few days but haven't BRed yet, and really spend A LOT of time on the passage itself. I've gone slowly with each paragraph, and I really try to engage in each one and think about possible questions/answers based on the view/explanation,etc. in that paragraph. I'm also trying to speak out loud when connecting something in the passage to something else spoken of earlier in the passage, and I keep speaking out loud when trying to figure out WHY something is in the passage by asking myself "WHY?" and then talking as if I'm trying to explain it to someone. Sounds like I'm bat shit crazy by talking to myself, but idk I feel like it's helpful lol
