Re: The Official February 2015 Study Group
Posted this in a separate thread and nobody responded. Maybe I'll get lucky here. Taking the LSAT in June.
Started to drill around a month ago and I'm worried that I'm not making the best use out of this phase. I've seen many people here say that drilling LR is one of the most important stages of ones prep and I want to make sure I'm doing this right.
Basically, I drill questions in sets of 25 and try pushing the pace since I've typically struggled with timing on standardized tests. I'd say I average around 2 minutes per question at this point. After I finish, I write out explanations for questions that gave me trouble / spent too much time on , and check Manhattan LR to see if my thought process was the same.
I guess I'm seeing some patters, but I don't think I'm developing the necessary skills to effectively tackle new questions.
Right now, I'm averaging around 84% of questions correct when I time myself ( always go over though) and around 93% when I take as much time as I need.
For those that really gained a ton from drilling LR, how exactly did you drill and what advice can you give to someone who's just starting this process? I've only drilled main point and sufficient assumption questions so far.
Really appreciate the help. TIA.
