why would it be 9 months? what about December?

Welp, went 170 on PT 78 (aka my last fresh prep test). It's 3 points below my average, so I know I shouldn't worry too much about it, but it's not a great feeling. Went -5 on the first LR, which was...unexpected.

Oh well. Gonna take the whole weekend off, and drink. I understand score dips happen, I just wish it didn't happen on my last fucking preptest.

Look at it this way, a score dip was inevitable and you got it out of the way now instead of on the test

because i suck

Gonna spend today doing logic games (and sleeping). If I get a bit more mental energy I'll do some RC and/or print off the 70s and start going through the LR again.

Definitely make sure you rest and get your health back...Last thing you want is to be sick next week.

Wise words. Definitely, on both counts.

Very true! Haha, I'm not gonna let myself freak out too much. That was my demise on my previous administration. Just gonna chill the eff out all weekend and then pick back up on Monday!

Shit happens. Stay confident.

(Also, I don't know if this is at all what happened to you, but I swear I do LR sets that I haven't seen for a few months and didn't review, and make the same dumb mistakes I make the first time around, because I revert back to the same flawed reasoning I did originally.)

[Rupert Pupkin]

I'm going to grade PT 73 (did this morning), gonna drill some tonight with some school work... Take another PT tomorrow AM and then get turnt for some football tomorrow and relax some...

Idk, maybe that's what I did. I didn't remember anything at all except the topics of 2 RC passages (but i never reviewed it) and 1 of the LR questions which I actually did remember the answer to.

Going over 76 now. Bah

[Pozzo]

When is everyone doing their last PT before the test? I've been prepping on the lighter side of things the past week or so, and all of a sudden feel the need to up it these last 8 days. But I'm also wary of burnout...

you definitely shouldn't do that. if you know you're capable of a top score, don't settle for less. I took 5 months off before I came back to studying again (and thus, a gap year) before I was able to hit 170+.

I'm gonna take one Sunday, then another Monday or Tuesday and my last one Thursday. I don't think cramming in an extra PT or two will help me as much as burnout would hurt me so I'm going to play it save.

I know man.. It's just so frustrating.. Single sections i do well on, but when my mind goes into full test mode, i forget all the shit i know

I even finished the LG section with a minute to spare, but ended up going -5 I always go like what? -0, -1, -2. lul

I'm going to front-load my prep and ideally do this, but if I am feeling good, maybe one Thurs... depends how every day goes. Friday definitely will just be light drilling. Maybe a section or two of stuff, but not PT style. I feel like at this point its all about mental focus, so relaxation and taking it easier is prob the best, but I still plan to take 2-3 more PTs. We'll see. Tomorrow im going to have fun and chill out. Between school and prep i haven't done anything social in ~2.5 weeks lol.

Lift, Study, LSAT repeat has been my schedule

[tskela]

Could someone take a stab at explaining PT 78 LR3 Q23 to me? I'm not sure I understand what the correct answer is saying and how it figures into the argument
