My first full, timed LG sections

It's good to be back on TLS.

Alright, I'm prepping for June and am one month into The LSATBlog Study plan. I've been drilling LG question types. I've just finished a few of my first full, timed LG sections and here's how they went: I consistently got through three of the four games with -0, but always only made it halfway through the diagram of the fourth before running out of time. Here's what I'm wondering: is that okay? Should I be worried? Do you think, with practice, that will I be able to consistently finish that fourth before the June administration? Should I even be having that problem after a month of LG learnin'?

Absolutely. You have four months to study for the LSAT. If you actually do study that entire time, you are going to do just fine. When you have gone through and learned how to approach each game type, make sure you go through and really hone those skills. Practice drilling specific game types so you will know which ones you struggle with and which ones you don't. After a while, you'll be able to breeze through them--especially with the later tests (50+).

One key thing you need to do is take practice tests and review them thoroughly.

I recommend following PithyPike's guide, especially on the LG portion since your'e having trouble w that section. By repeating games, you will learn to do them more efficiently.
