Like violaboy said, panic is kryptonite.

when i took my june 09 test, i got the infamous dinogame as the first section. panic rushed in after that section, and ended up getting destroyed the whole test because i couldnt take my mind off of how i did so bad on LG.  

so stay calm. that's one of my game plans.  

For me, I have about 12 more PTs left so I plan on taking all of those, around 8:40-9am every day. and give myself thursday and friday leading up to the test off.  Thursday would be review, friday would be movies and rest.

i dont know if you have any more PTs left.  also i never heard of NOVA prep so i cant help you there.  

it takes me about 3-3:30 mins reading an RC passage.  I try to hit the last two passages with 19-20 mins left.  of course bubbling in after every passage.  Also, some say finding a passage with the most question saves you time, but i disagree.

yeah RC is def. a killer.

I'm going to review ALL the LR questions i got wrong so far tonight and sunday. 

Good thing is after all those PTs, when i did the 5 section test, fatigue didnt set in.

I'm praying to God that the actual lsat for me would me LG/LR/LG break LR/RC - this was how my June 09 was.

and how do you review incorrect RC questions? Is that even possible?

Studying for the LSAT / June04 Lsat question
« on: September 12, 2009, 07:16:03 PM »
June 04 LSAT section 3 (?) #17: the question about increased international peacekeeping and permanent seats.

I understand why E is correct but why is C incorrect?

I'm dead scared right now about the possibility of me not breaking 170. Although I forgot most of the questions, go through every process when solving them, and finish each section around 33mins, the scores/raw are pathetic considering these are 2nd time around.

Help.

Just finished a 5 section test from june 04.

spread: -2(LG exp)/-6(rc)/-5(lr)/-2(lr)/0(lg) = 88/169

very surprised at the -5 in the lr. 

@#!* RC seriously. it is destroying my score.

to make it worse, i took this test about 5 months ago

Starting June 00, I took the PTs in the morning by getting up between 6-7am and starting the PTs around 8:40-9am.

It's been miserable. I have about 10 PTs left all 5 sections dating up to june 09.

reviewing questions, I've been focusing only on LR.

Studying for the LSAT / what is the flaw in this stimulus?
« on: September 06, 2009, 09:59:37 PM »
Only a minority of those who engage in political action do so out of a sense of social justice.  Therefore, some people who have a sense of social justice do not engage in political action.

seems like the flaw is confusion of "minority"

and how does this flaw match with

(A)   Most scholars are not motivated by a desire to win prestigious academic prizes.  Thus, some of those who want to win prestigious academic prizes are not scholars

thanks
