took 64, felt iffy, really unsure about pretty much all sections. had a little trouble with timing but didn't have to guess on a whole lot. LG felt weird but I feel like I may have done alright. I had to rush my last RC passage but I think I was able to get some sort of basis for my guesses so they were more like educated guesses.... really hope it turns out better than it felt...

go to your list of friends/likes and unfollow each of them. This has to be done individually

Did 6 "Combo" Games (Grouping with ordering) and got either -0 or -1 on them. Making some progress!

Do you have to blind review right after the PT? I know BR is going to be invaluable because of the difference in scores and seeing if the issue is just timing.

Took my first PT in a few months and it went rough (not finishing in time, etc.) but I think PTs can be really useful and I learned a lot—if you know what you don't yet know, then that's way ahead of not knowing what you don't know. For instance, I'd be taking the section and doing great then I'd get to a question type I haven't done in the trainer yet and would try to solve it, etc. so in terms of patterns most of the questions I have circled fell under that umbrella/noticed they were often the same question type/stem.

Can't believe I didn't BR PTs before. I'd just be like "ohh I scored higher than my last PT = progress. Oh I scored lower than my last PT = wtf dude"

How many LG's do you all typically drill a day?

This is a ridiculous waste of a valuable resource: time. I would rather deactivate it and go on for maybe 5 minutes during a FB lapse, versus spending hours unfollowing every friend on my list. What's the point of even having a Facebook at that point?

On the contrary, it is just the opposite; it took me ~45 minutes to unfollow everyone and (apart from private messages and posting on others' walls), I haven't used Facebook in the past year. That strikes me as a decent investment.

And as I mentioned, the point is that you can still receive private messages, maintain your public profile and post on others' walls.

Ya probably had less than 100 friends. NO THX.

Gosh aren't y'all ~*~POPULAR~*~

I was a social butterfly in college. But leaving FB is pretty nice so far...no notifications and friends only contact me for real talk now instead of just random BS.

ETA: I was fb stalking myself a couple days ago (this is totally normal...) and it made me want to deactivate fb. I had an awkward stage...

I can confirm that this is totally a thing and I also recommend NEVER back-stalking yourself (as in going to your most recently tagged photo and hitting the left arrow). It's horrifying.

PT 66 tomorrow....I will beat the 160 barrier!

[Shakawkaw]

I was trying to figure out how to hide all photos and I couldn't

Go to Settings --> Timeline & Tagging --> Go down to "When you're tagged in a post, who do you want to add to the audience if they aren't already in it?" and set that to "No one." It's a neat feature because you can also set select viewers of your images.

Does not stop the inevitable cringing from self back-stalking though, but does not allow others to take part in the cringing.

ETA: This definitely does not take longer than unfollowing all of your friends. Lol @ that suggestion.

I haven't taken that yet, let us know how it goes! Good luck - you got it!

I prefer not to do it immediately i.e. wait until the next day when I don't have Lsat headache and can think clearer.

But beyond that, I wouldn't wait longer if I could avoid it.
