Just got a 174 today...

Post by Helicio » Sun May 20, 2012 7:15 pm

A low of 169, a high of 177 over the past 2 weeks with an average of 173. What can I do between now and June 11 to average around 175? Thanks dudes!

More info: For some reason I have been doing worse on RC lately and better on LG. I have also been taking more recent tests (in the 40s and 50s). Coincidence or no?

I also found that RC became more of an issue with the later tests. The main thing to do now is don't let up. If RC is a problem, get the RC Bible and work at it. It's not as improvable as other sections, but you can definitely use RCB to get a stronger grip on what's going on, if you haven't read it yet. Good luck!

I read the RC Bible but it is so useless! I'll definitely look over RC more. It is strange because I thought RC was my strongest section and now I'm all of a sudden doing worse than usual on it.

I had the same problem. Just when I thought that I had LG under control, RC became a bitch. I didn't have the problem long enough to even figure out what was going on - was it getting harder, or was I less focused? In fact, the first time I noticed it was on my first actual LSAT, which I had to cancel. The RC Bible helped, and also, just knowing to focus on it more was helpful. Keep grinding, take the Sunday before off, and you should be golden.

Try the Manhattan Reading Comprehension Guide, I found it better than the RCB, and the general consensus on here follows.

I think I'm going to basically do PTs and drill LG for the next 3 weeks till I get to -0. I need to stop missing LG questions.

Thanks doods.
