I'm not even bothering. I'm going to retake it completely fresh after a week or two of review. I'm positive I just had a bad test day.

You go, worm.

I might wait on zones, because we posted the answer choice order all over the place yesterday, and that could guide to the right answers.

Personally, I'm going to participate in Manhattan's review of the test on Nov 8, and retake the whole PT earlier the same day.
The hilariously sad thing, for me, is that I raped zones and LG in general. I failed on my go-to, LR, and it ruined my test.

Alright guys. Where do I start? I need the most work on RC as it's my least consistent. I've gone through Manhattan's RC Strategy Guide twice but it's still not clicking.

Suggestions?

And I'm sorry Lenahan :( good job on kicking Zones ass though!

It's killing me inside to know that I'm capable of a mid-160 and I even got lucky enough to guess correctly on three questions and only get 1 wrong on a zoning game I didn't completely understand and then I get 5 wrong on a !kung passage (-7 on RC is a good for me b/c it's always my worst section and it hurts a lot to know that I might as well have been making paper planes instead of reading that !kung passage) I thought I nailed then I get nailed by the two logical reasoning sections I thought were easy.

Just goes to show you that sometimes you can't really tell how you did. I thought LG would kill me and it ended up being my best section by far and I thought I nailed the LR sections and I ended up going -14. This is going to be very difficult to pull it together and give it one more go. I'm absolutely drained. I feel like luck was on my side and then it betrayed me and left me in the dust. :cry:

What amazes me is how many of the regulars all got the same score.

Hi everyone, I'm retaking as well. I think my score may get me in at some of the schools I want (166, 3.7, URM, Puerto Rican), but I am not sure if I should wait or submit and tell them to hold. What do you all think? I am super nervous waiting but also nervous asking them to wait. Retaking sucks

I'll be following along with you guys, though I'm pretty sure I'm going to wait until June. I feel that this could be good motivation and ease me back into a full-on study plan for June.

Although I'm still holding out hope for this cycle.

Checking in. Went -11 on LR so I'm going to start reading through Manhattan tonight and start drilling from Cambridge tomorrow. Let's get to work.

Did anyone else not study between Oct 6 and now and feel like they know nothing? Where to start? Guess I'll whip out the LR flashcards and go from there. So rattled, I felt I had such a good grasp of this section before the test and now everything feels so unfamiliar.

I thought my 152 would be the low point of my week but apparently it gets worse, my firm doesn't have enough work for me and can't afford to keep me on until there's more work and now I need to look for a new job. Not entirely a shock because I spend more time on Facebook than I do working but still it sucks. Oh well, at least I'll have more time study.

+1

I'm about to take a practice test as kind of a diagnostic again since I haven't done ANY LSAT prep since the oct. test and my 162 just isn't going to cut it.

I was just wondering if I signed up for the December test and then Canceled the night before the test if that would count as one of my three takes? This would be my third try at it so i really dont want to fuck it up this time, so I'm not taking unless I'm averaging way above my goal. Thanks for any help.

Withdrawing before midnight EST the night before the test doesn't count as one of your three.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
