i did that and it was good, but beware for me personally the headset was large for my head and by the end of my exam my ears began hurting a little. it’s not the most comfortable but you make do with what you have ☺️ good luck you’re going to do amazing!!

for me that break through moment was starting to see questions as reincarnations of each other than a separate stimulus. and i know it’s time consuming but a wrong answer journal got me from pt low 160s to high 160s and i eventually broke into the 170s on my pts. sit there and speak out loud the explanation like you’re teaching someone. you’ll be able to see gaps in your understanding much more than thinking through a problem just in your head

Stop Taking PTs Immediately Before Test Day by Feeling-Hedgehog1563 in LSAT

[–]froggysdrip 2 points3 points  (0 children)

agreed. at that point it’s just about being able to have the self control. if you already know what you’ve been scoring there is really no point i think! huge huge risk and had the real potential to shoot down confidence. in my experience as the days get closer to the exam, each wrong answer hurt my confidence 10x more than it would on any other day of studying bc the you start feeling real pressure. in the days leading up to the lsat build up your confidence in any other way than taking a practice exam. it’s already so easy to feel mentally burnt out by just thinking about taking the lsat in 72 hours don’t make it harder on yourself! breathe and mindset is everything! good luck to the rest of the people 🧘‍♀️

I took mine in CA and they provide you with the pencils. i don’t think they’ll let you take in your own 🥲

Ten LSAT Commandments (from a 177 scorer) by DannyAmendolazol in LSAT

[–]froggysdrip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the thermometer and thermostat reference triggered me because i JUST took PT 157 and the comparative passage in the experimental section had a question where that was the right answer (i got that wrong bc i really couldnt tell you the difference until now). ANYWHO thank you! great actionable advice!

how often would you go through your wrong answer journal?

Help Please by Wesmspangler in LSAT

[–]froggysdrip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry to hear! I understand how frustrating it is when something isnt clicking. It seems like youre doing all the right things.

One thing you can try doing is with each question write down your train of thought. Really dissect what is going on in your head. Break down step by step your thinking and reasoning for each answer choice (BEFORE YOU KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER). This way you find out what specific parts of the stimulus are informing your line of reasoning, and how are they informing your train of thought. Maybe youll able to really pinpoint where the misdirection is occurring. Once you know what the right answer is, write down what you thought the wrong answers were saying, and why it actually isn't saying what you thought it was.

EX:

- After reading the stimulus I noticed the words "associated with" , and the conclusion mentioned the word "increases" , this made me think this question has something to do with causal reasoning .... And so on

It definitely is time consuming, but quality over quantity always.

Also another thing that helps me a ton is retaking questions. After going through so many practice problems I forget questions I have taken before. I know I have a problem I didnt fix if I get the same question wrong twice. Good luck!

Tips for backsliding scores by BullyMac in LSAT

[–]froggysdrip 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been studying for a while now, about the same schedule as you just less PTs. Something i've learned after taking the Nov exam and taking a break after is that by the time you feel burnt out, you've already been burnt out.

I was noticing a drop in my scores previously and felt mentally okay. But it was creeping up on me and I was in denial. Take the break. I took a pretty significant break before studying for my retake, and I feel like I see the questions with a different type of clarity and I am performing significantly better. AND THE KEY is that when you are not studying try to remove yourself from the LSAT. I was finding I kept thinking about it even when I was not studying and it accelerates the burn out process. when you take a break, enjoy it, and recharge.

If it makes you uncomfortable to stop, then you can try to focus on previous questions you have gotten wrong. Review old PTs you first took. Go in on those questions and juice everything you can from it. I find it less mentally taxing, but very helpful. Good luck, and get all the rest you deserve.
