Haha, guess you just got the email. Just go to the LSAT section on the LSAC website and you'll see an option to view photo.

White spacing all around. I used my photo for June and didn't have any problems so you're good to go.

Pretty drained today. Taking it easy with 10 RC passages and casually going through supplemental questions by type.

like it doesn't completely fill the black box for me and it says that there shouldn't be any white space. how'd you take your photo? I used my iPhone and emailed the pic to myself.

ah I fixed it! StopLawying, if you crop the photo using the cropping tool it'll automatically fill the box. our photos are probably too narrow. I'd do it just in case if I were you.

Like I REALLLLLLLLLLY don't know wtf just happened, like, AT FUCKING ALL. Sigh, I was feeling around the mid 160's but I guess not.
Shit happens. Don't let that get you down, hard as I know it is.
Dude, I was actually confident about RC ANDDDD finished it on time (right on 35 mins actually). I was ehh on the first LR, but I thought at worst I would get low 160's, but I was confident in a mid 160 score. Ugh, this sucks so much. I guess the warm up didn't really help, huh? Lul fml.
Sometimes I feel like the tests I think I did the best on I do the worst on. ://
Celebrate the small victories. Finishing RC in time and feeling confident on it is a huge step. Congrats! :D

Mine had white space on the sides. I took another and cropped mine with my iphone before uploading it. Better safe than sorry.

Protein, I scanned a passport photo and edited it to fit their requirements. I have an updated passport photo that I'm going to do the same for in a bit.

I was planning on taking a PT every other day, ie tomorrow, but I hate taking PTs when I haven't done much the day before. Could not get the ball rolling mentally or physically today, so I might have to abort that plan. We'll see. :oops:

how do you edit a passport photo? Mine has sideways blue lines on it, so I don't think LSAC would accept my photo.

So today:

I drilled LG from two weeks ago, for the most part I went perfect scores on all of them, but I was a minute slower so 5, 6, and 6.5 minutes per game.

One game I messed up on, went 3/5, so I'm going to watch the explanation for it later tonight and drill it up some more.

LG is always an ego boost for me, it made me feel better about myself.

For now, it's back to Parallel Reasoning.

I hate the fact that the pressure of knowing i'm doing a fully timed PT impacts the way that I do on each section. It really fucking sucks, like a lot. I hate it as opposed to do doing single timed sections. I know it's essentially the same shit, but the fact that it's a full PT just gets to me, idunno why.

You can easily do it through photoshop or even pain, just cut out the blue lines and then upload it

have you tried tracking if section scores on full pts are different on average than individuals section scores?

just did PT60 and bombed the last logic game due to an initial misunderstanding of a rule. By the time I realized my mistake it was too late to fix the answers.

I also went -6 on the 2nd LR section for some reason...There's no excuse for that.

All in all I ended up with a 166....which isn't good but I'm okay with it considering. Also went -3 in RC! My last two RC scores were -4 and -3 so I'm counting that as a win.

LG: -0
LR1: -1
LR2: -3
exp LR (PT69): -0
RC: -8 :'(

The good news is that my LR is very consistently -4 or -3. I still can't figure out the secret to unlocking RC though. Just gotta keep drilling and BR I guess!
Jeeze, that must have been a brutal RC. Really tight LR and LG tho. I'd say that, if that's where you bottom out on RC, you are in a pretty good spot.

I feel like doing individual passages for Testmasters was kind of messing with my confidence with RC... like my last two RC scores were not that bad at all, but, at this point in the course pack, I think it's primarily hard reading passages.

Anywho, I'm really beat since I really didn't sleep well at all last night, so I'm going to just lay in bed and watch some TV till I pass out fairly shortly. June 2010 tomorrow.
