How are you scheduling out your final PTs? I have not touched 71-78 for the reason I don't want to burn through them too far out from the test date.
Switching it up and prioritizing the most recent ones to an extent, because the sooner I've done a test, the sooner I can use it to drill, and I want to be very familiar with the types of questions typical of the 70s come test day.

The LSAT's great at making you very aware of what subjects you know absolutely nothing about. :|

For me it's anything involving finance/economics. My eyes just glaze over.

Econ is my favorite. I think my worst passages are on fine arts.

Makes sense... Thanks for the feedback! Anything that has really stuck out to you about the trend of the 70s thus far?

Almost done with LSAT Trainer. I will finish the Trainer's schedule the week of LSAT.

This will be my 2nd attempt at the LSAT. Then I will retake in December by trying to take all LSATs ever.

Thank you.

So, the internet in my mom's place goes out and I go to the lounge downstairs to work because they have internet 24 hours.

I go into the lounge and the table is moved in the middle of the room, there are all these makeup artists, and this girl in a short dress sitting on the table getting her makeup done by 3 makeup artists. Their promoting her for something, and one of them went to get her several dresses.

I'm like ummm, just want to study for the LSAT. Lmao.. I feel like I'm watching Keeping Up with the Kardashians in my lounge or something.. they also did her hair too...

They are setting up all these cameras to take shots of her, and apparantly a bikini shot by our pool. What the hell is going on..

I seem to be okay with humanities passages. Not near as good as I should be on science RC being a science major and, even then, I swear I do better on earth sciences or idk astronomy than life sciences :roll: econ/finance on rc or lr is my bane tho. What are these words I'm looking at and what do they mean.

That's hilarious :lol:
You'll be well-prepared in the unlikely event they decide to do a fashion shoot in your testing center, on test day.

Took my last "long break" this past weekend. Now that I'm working FT too I feel that I'm really forced to make my studying as efficient as possible. Also forced myself to write PT 67 after work last week. Definitely wasn't fun, but I guess I'm O.K. with the 162.

If I'm still in this slump in 2-3 weeks though, I think I'm going to push to December :(

I've only done two and a half of the 70s so not really the best authority on the matter. LRs seem to have a few question stems I haven't seen too often. Seem pretty similar to the 60s overall.

LR game has plummeted. 4 sections today - -2, -2, 0 , -3. :oops:

Econ & Science I'm usually fine with. I tend to find them interesting... I was more just saying the concept of prions is pretty terrifying haha. Art history /culture ones I sometimes find annoying, but I've gotten better at them. Those ones seem to follow a few boilerplates, as it more readily lends itself to having multiple viewpoints than science passages do...

For those of you that are you doing 5 section PTs, are you putting in full effort on your experimental section when you already know it's your experimental section?

Yeah I see what you mean but I feel like knowing beforehand that it's not going to contribute to the score has some sort of psychological effect on whether or not the level of exertion is equal. I'm definitely overthinking it :D

Seriously? What are you waiting for?
