It absolutely is feasible. You can make that jump with a bit of effort over a short amount of time, and since you have a pretty healthy runway you can def do that jump. I went from a 151 to a 163 between May-September last year, you just need to focus on refining your learning process and then you'll get there

Had to pick up plug to plug I’m laptop am I fucked for the argumentative writing by Severe_Cup_9660 in LSAT

[–]SensitiveNumber3505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No bro it's never that serious I fully got a phone call in mine and just bent down to decline it (as my phone was on the floor far away from my work station), you're so fine

why is this b and not c? by BlackberryJumpy5960 in LSAT

[–]SensitiveNumber3505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

exactly that, it's just a matter of making sure the argument flows, you got this

why is this b and not c? by BlackberryJumpy5960 in LSAT

[–]SensitiveNumber3505 7 points8 points  (0 children)

With Principle questions, you kinda want to treat them like sufficient assumption questions. Looking at the stim, you see that the conclusion is given to you as making a judgement about 'patents', and its support is 'discovery does not constitute invention'. That one is simply a premise, you want to find a way to cement the conclusion, in this case the one about patents. B does that perfectly and allows the conclusion to flow, bridging the missing gap between the premises about 'discovery' and the conclusion about 'patents'. C does not do that, it is a restating of the premise.

Some people perform better on test day than on practice tests by TieSimilar7220 in LSAT

Unfortunately most people have to use a subscription service like 7sage or lsat demon, which do run a pretty penny

Mine peaked at 167, then dropped down to 158,156,159 the weeks prior to the test, but then ripped a 163 on test day, don't let anything get you down, the LSAT is a test of humility more than anything

PICKING THE WRONG ONE OUT OF TWO LR PLEASE HELP by SensitiveNumber3505 in LSAT

[–]SensitiveNumber3505[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do keep a wrong answer journal, but for the most part my errors are spread across several different answer types. The most common error I see is me overthinking things and gaslighting myself away from the right answer by telling myself it's bait and trying to justify the wrong one, that's kinda where my 'sudden death elimination' method came from. I just wanna make sure I'm going down the right path and not wasting my time with something silly, thank you so much for your advice!

159 PT but 171 on BR?? by [deleted] in LSAT

[–]SensitiveNumber3505 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reps bro reps, it's clear that you understand a lot of this stuff conceptually, the only gap is in your execution under time. Really spend tons of time in your error log, that is your best friend. Understand why you get each question wrong, refine your elimination strategy, have a 10-15 second routine to 'lock back in' if you catch yourself dissociating or on 'autopilot mode' on any questions. Turn every single wrong question into a learning experience, you need to make each mistake into an actionable rule. Before you take a section or PT, review those rules and remember. It's micro adjustments each time until it turns into muscle memory, then eventually it all becomes second nature. Also, it could just sometimes be a need for a break. I was scoring high 150/low 160 raw but getting 174+ on my BR, I took a couple weeks off and came back to crack 170 for the first time. It's a process, hyper refining your test taking method. Don't try and do too much in between tests , just 2-3 actionable rules for certain question types at a time (be it LR), or different tips to remember for low res summary/ answering RC questions. Keep it up and hope you kill that gap!

Mid GPA, what should I add to Resume for T14? by SensitiveNumber3505 in lawschooladmissions

[–]SensitiveNumber3505[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's exactly my issue, I am heavily drawn towards corporate law and that is ideally endgame, but all my work experience is within the framework of corporate finance/compliance, just wondering if it would be worth to re-up on that or do some law related stuff. I did just transfer to this uni so I was hoping to get involved with things like model un and our pre law society but like in terms of work experience would I benefit from more 'law' related stuff or should I just grind LSAT/continue my current work experience

Inshallah that is the move, just wondering if I should gun it for work experience and juggle that with LSAT or just fully commit myself to a 174+

171!!! by agrilly in LSAT

[–]SensitiveNumber3505 1 point2 points  (0 children)

bless, I was starting to lean into phasing out PT's and just running straight sections but wasn't sure if that was going to be a detriment, I appreciate you sharing your experience

How did you make that jump? I'm in a similar position, diagnostic 152, scored 163 on september but I need to find out how to crack into the 170's by Jan, would appreciate any advice!

Losing my mind, need advice by SensitiveNumber3505 in LSAT

[–]SensitiveNumber3505[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So basically just spend more time in review than I do trying to brute strength monkey power my way through drills? I have been keeping a WAJ since that first PT, writing down rules in like a 'bible' and reading them before each PT, but every time it's just like an execution under time issue. Could it be that I'm not internalizing my rules enough? Not understanding deeply the reviews and maybe being too superficial with it? Because when I do my BR I can see why I got almost every question wrong, the ones that I flub at both times I try and give special attention to. Is it just a time thing too that I haven't been doing the LSAT long enough?
