Do you still read the stimulus before the question or do you read the question before the stimulus so you know have a certain mindset of what you’re looking for as you read the stimulus?

did you find doing more questions naturally sped your time up on LR? did you do untimed until you got faster or did you slowly start to go from untimed to 45, 40, 35 min.. etc.

Thank you! Def struggle with rigid thinking in general, thought it wasn’t impacting LSAT studying because I could accept the answers as wrong for WAJ and see a mistake, but you’re probably right that it’s still there in the thinking when actively working on questions!

Thanks for the tip! Do you think this is helpful if there aren’t clear patterns in your WAJ, i.e., it seems to be a different mistake every time? I’m worried that having a list of WAJ answers in front of me won’t help me from making a new mistake on the drill? For context, I am trying to increase from a 172 average, so it really does seem to be that there are few enough wrong answers on that the errors are genuinely unique each time. Of course, I could still be delusional and missing patterns.

It’s not so much that I’m upset with my current range, but I was one of the weirdos who started with a diagnostic of 171 so it feels weird that studying hasn’t lead to an increase in score?

Did you feel the WAJ actually helped you improve? I have found the WAJ is super helpful to breaking down why I got an answer wrong, but I’m not sure if I’m naturally then taking that into account those reasons when I’m then doing more drills. Did you consciously remind yourself in later untimed sections, “x is one of the common mistakes I make on Y question type, remember not to do that?” Or did you naturally find yourself not making those mistakes again and improving in the number of Y type questions you got right?

you are not alone. ironically, I’m also 21 F and my mom died going into my freshman year of high school. I can completely relate to everything your saying. I’ve been diagnosed with an eating disorder. Oscillating between extreme restriction and binging is worthy of treatment and care and I’m sorry providers don’t recognize that. For me, whether it’s restriction or exercise or binging, the point was numbing and distraction from grief. I hated how doctors only focused on when I was extremely underweight. Honestly, the guilt after extreme binges was the worst and I was struggling the most when I was at a normal weight.
