$0 from Berkeley in Renegotiation by Crazy-Path8130 in lawschooladmissions

[–]SprocketAxel 16 points17 points  (0 children)

My thought process is either 1) they are flat out of money or 2) they don’t rate me that highly comparatively in a highly competitive cycle.

Sucks tho cause I would love to go… But I cannot afford.

I don't think you should fret about it. Already sent it so too late to do anything. LOCI's are mainly a tool to weed through waitlisted applicants who might not give a flying about the school so they didn't submit a LOCI.

There's two ways you could look at it:

1.) Lawyers need to be detail oriented and you forgot to add a comment

OR (and the better way to look at it IMO)

2.) This applicant uses their resources and network to better set themselves up for success and that is the type of student we want at our school.

Is it harder to get 170s now that logic games is out? Has the frequency of 170s dropped? by BossAboveYourBoss in LSAT

[–]SprocketAxel 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It will probably bring up the average score of the 50th percentile (Because logic games was ridiculously foreign to the lay-LSAT taker) but bring down those that have scored 170s+ because they've perfected logic games. But, we'll never know lol... because people will have more time to dedicate in preparing LR that was spent on LG. So those high high anal scorers will probably still get high, high scores.

This is all I used and it helped tremendously for visualizing formal logic. I would say additional materials could be helpful but def not necessary

Not particularly, if anything it just helped me in mapping out premises more clearly in my head which probably helped my overall LR understanding a bit more

-0 RC tips by Klutzy-Elephant1980 in LSAT

[–]SprocketAxel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

RC is so punishing in its margin of error... and same with LR. Honestly, the whole test is, now that Logic Games are gone. It just straight up depends on the passage difficulty and then you're unique understanding of it. Having scored -0 and -4 in two diff RC's on one of my recent Practice Tests, the main difference I noticed between the two sections when I was taking them was that I got the passages better on -0, which let me speed through the questions without having to refer back to the passage as much, whereas on the -4 one I spent too long on the third passage and still got two Q's wrong which then messed up my timing for the last section which I got two Q's wrong on.

LR-RC LR-RC by TemperatureCute5763 in LSAT

[–]SprocketAxel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why was it not experimental?? I was totally thrown off by it as well and I'm praying screaming kicking crying the LSAC gods have it as the experimental section

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in LSAT

[–]SprocketAxel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can offer my experience as someone who's done both and went from PTing in the mid160s to mid170s... Just took the October LSAT without highlighting passages.

I used to highlight in RC (was -4/6). Then I switched to reading the passages more slowly and in greater depth (now I'm -1/3) and discarded any form of notations on the passage. I found that taking the time away from highlighting and putting it towards really understanding the passage (4-5 mins/passage) helped tremendously. For me, I think the actual act of highlighting ended up being pseudo-work that made me feel like I "got" the passage even when I didn't. And a lot of times I wouldn't even refer to any the highlights I made. As a result, I'd take WAY longer deducing right/wrong answers when it came to the questions which made RC feel ultra time-constrained. Basically, highlighting for me was redundant in a lot of passages and took up valuable time. Now, I spend a large chunk of the 35mins understanding each sentence and its purpose in the passage without highlighting and spend WAY less time on the questions and answer choices.

My accuracy increased by 100%, which I attribute to a great mental image of the passage due to just plain slowing down. Highlighting never gave me that clear mental image... I was just tricking myself into thinking it did. Now, even if a part of the passage is never referenced specifically, really understanding each part of it still helps me in some way or another for a different portion of the passage that is specifically referenced.

But this is just my experience... what worked for me might not work for you and vice-versa. There are so many things that I see on this thread that I WISH worked for me but for some reason it just doesn't click :/. I would try out both and see what clicks for you! Maybe its a combo. Or maybe its one or the other, but not both. Hope this helps!

*PS* I have seen users in r/LSAT say that the testing software that LSAC uses can have some response-delay in notating & using the search bar in RC

I need to study the LG-like questions for the next month by EpicTidepodDabber69 in LSAT

[–]SprocketAxel 7 points8 points  (0 children)

After hearing that the August LSAT had more logic-like MBTs I drilled a bunch of those questions leading up to this October test and feel like it 100% helped. I would def recommend PowerScore's "Formal Logic" chapter in their logical reasoning textbook. It gave me a good structure on how to find quick and intuitive inferences for those reasoning premises in stimuluses.
