I have been murdered by PT 72 and am writing this from beyond the grave. Someone please avenge me.

PrepTest #72 

Score: 166 (83/101)

LG: 19/23  RC: 22/27 LR1: 22/26 LR2: 20/25

The lowest I have ever scored on RC is -4, and that only happened once, so -5 was an unpleasant surprise. LR was a little harder than usual as well. LG was fine, except game #4, which consisted of the last five questions of the section. I got question 19 correct, because all you needed were the rules, no diagram or inferences, but I got the last four questions wrong because I literally had no clue how to approach the problem. It was a pattern game and I just couldn’t figure out how to diagram it. 

So first off, I’m pretty behind on my study schedule. I was not able to do much studying while my archaeology class was in session, but that ended last Friday. Then I took a week’s vacation from the LSAT, read nearly 1,800 pages worth of comics, and even slept in one day. I decided yesterday that a week of lounging was enough, and picked back up my study books. I got through chapters 6 and 7 (mixed grouping/linear and pure sequencing games) of the Logic Game Bible, and did a full LSAT today. and now for the extremely exciting (to me at least) results:

PrepTest #64

Score: 170 (88/101) (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

LG: 18/23 RC: 25/27 LR1: 22/25 LR2: 23/26

I spent maybe 4 or 5 minutes on the first logic game before I realized I had diagrammed it backwards, and had to start over, which meant I ran out of time and had to rush through one game at the end and make some educated guesses. I also didn’t fully understand the rules to the second game at first, and that meant I had to go back and redo some answers. So the moral here is to read the rules and set up carefully before you draw your diagram.
