Also, on this topic, how long should each reading section take?

It definitely depends on the person, but it doesn't matter how much time you spend in the passage if you aren't understanding the what the questions are looking for

Very true. Also, side note: 7sage makes my life 10x better.

I seriously would not have gotten this far in my LSAT prep if it wasn't for JY. He's a life saver.

It's like Khan Academy for the LSAT.

I have to agree about 7Sage. I always circle quantifiers (most, some, few) as a red flag when reading LR or RC.

You have 8.75 minutes per passage but harder passages take more time and easier passages take less time.

It depends on the passage? I usually don't look at my watch until after the second passage, where I'm usually ~15 minutes in. I always make sure I have 10 minutes left for the last passage, or else the panic is going to set in.

Reading case law from the 60s. Misogynistic, story-book crap.

"And like most girls when visiting the big city, she conceived a yen to get some clothes in the big city."
"...like most women she wanted another dress"
etc, etc.

If you want to read some cringy case law look up the "rule of thumb" series of rulings

Is it weird that I don't look at my watch during RC? I guess I look at it towards the end of the final passage to see how many minutes I have left, but I don't during the rest of them. I have no idea why.

Conversely, I spend wayyyy too much time glancing at my watch during LG and LR. I seriously panic when doing LG b/c I'm so terrified about running out of time.

This...I know I'm screwed when 5 minute warning is called and I haven't figured out the inferences to the last game. lol
