But more like, I better keep studying, because I don't think this is going to be a high enough result. Or I need to let schools know that a higher number is likely coming. These are critical behavioral modifications that come about as you start to analyze what happened and what it likely means. It allows you to prepare... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
It allows you to prepare if you have an idea of what the bottom line is going to be. Precisely. So that saves you time, makes you more efficient, and makes you more comfortable. Yeah, and comfort, man. You can't overstate it. You can't. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Yeah, and comfort, man. You can't overstate it. You can't. And I think that's actually a really important point for anyone listening. This isn't going to go away. People are always going to want to talk about it. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
And I think that's actually a really important point for anyone listening. This isn't going to go away. People are always going to want to talk about it. I love the system that they have right now, where it's like we can share some of the basic information about the test. Because I think for 98% of the test takers, tha... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
I love the system that they have right now, where it's like we can share some of the basic information about the test. Because I think for 98% of the test takers, that actually makes them feel comfortable. And it puts an end to the questions. If this goes away, I think we may have problems. Because there are so many av... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
If this goes away, I think we may have problems. Because there are so many avenues on the internet for people who want to go talk about things and do it in an underground way. Right now, they don't have to. Let's hope we never get to that particular point. Yeah, I strongly discourage it when I start to see a trend in t... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Let's hope we never get to that particular point. Yeah, I strongly discourage it when I start to see a trend in that direction. But this at least allows us to provide a reasonable alternative. Yeah, you and I both discourage it. And what was it? Somebody on, I think it was Reddit, had posted a question and said, I'm in... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Yeah, you and I both discourage it. And what was it? Somebody on, I think it was Reddit, had posted a question and said, I'm in the middle of an accommodated test. It started on Monday, and it finishes on Tuesday. First off, that's a really rare scenario to take an LSAT over two days. And yeah, the first three sections... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
It started on Monday, and it finishes on Tuesday. First off, that's a really rare scenario to take an LSAT over two days. And yeah, the first three sections. And then he didn't just get a 10 or 15 minute break. They got almost, what, a 20 hour break or something. Yeah, and I was like, that's very rare for that to happe... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
And then he didn't just get a 10 or 15 minute break. They got almost, what, a 20 hour break or something. Yeah, and I was like, that's very rare for that to happen. And my immediate reaction was, that should not happen. You should not be able to go home in the middle of the test. But this guy was out there posting for ... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
And my immediate reaction was, that should not happen. You should not be able to go home in the middle of the test. But this guy was out there posting for questions. And the beautiful thing that happened was, the very first response was, you're cheating. Stop it. And I'm like, that's exactly what should happen. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
And the beautiful thing that happened was, the very first response was, you're cheating. Stop it. And I'm like, that's exactly what should happen. And when I see things like that, he then later had posted on our forum. And I was like, we're not helping. We can't. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
And when I see things like that, he then later had posted on our forum. And I was like, we're not helping. We can't. We're not going to tell you anything. And you should really not worry about it anyway. Go just take your test tomorrow and work through it and see how it goes. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
We're not going to tell you anything. And you should really not worry about it anyway. Go just take your test tomorrow and work through it and see how it goes. So with that in mind and understanding that there were a bunch of LSATs going on, let's talk about the one that was taken by the greatest number of people. And ... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
So with that in mind and understanding that there were a bunch of LSATs going on, let's talk about the one that was taken by the greatest number of people. And that was the Saturday US Canadian test. Yeah, the North American test. I should mention, we talk about Saturday tests and Sunday tests and Monday tests. Those a... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
I should mention, we talk about Saturday tests and Sunday tests and Monday tests. Those are all local time zone references. For instance, I was seeing information getting posted about the, you can't see me doing air quotes, but I am, Sunday international test in Asia and Australia and let's not forget New Zealand, Hobb... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
I was seeing information come out about those tests, for me, during Saturday night. It was 9, 10 o'clock PM, my time, Saturday night. And people had finished their Sunday international tests already. I won't get into a long thing about how time zones work, and it's a big planet. But it's amazing. It's amazing to kind o... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
I won't get into a long thing about how time zones work, and it's a big planet. But it's amazing. It's amazing to kind of feel, it felt like a time travel, in a way. Is it a round planet or a flat one? Well, you know the jury's still out. Oh my God, it is not. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Is it a round planet or a flat one? Well, you know the jury's still out. Oh my God, it is not. No matter what Kyrie Irving says, the planet is round, round on a globe. We'll see. I defer in all things to Neil deGrasse Tyson. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
No matter what Kyrie Irving says, the planet is round, round on a globe. We'll see. I defer in all things to Neil deGrasse Tyson. Well, I will say this. When Kyrie Irving said that, that was the most embarrassing thing said by a Duke grad in public recently. So we're going to, he did not graduate, by a Duke alumni or a... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Well, I will say this. When Kyrie Irving said that, that was the most embarrassing thing said by a Duke grad in public recently. So we're going to, he did not graduate, by a Duke alumni or a student or what have you at some point. Well, in this globe world of ours, what you find is that not only is it tougher LSAC to a... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Well, in this globe world of ours, what you find is that not only is it tougher LSAC to administer all these different tests, but then they have to actually juggle the starting times in various places, through Europe, through Asia, even through North America, as we'll see. So that's what we're talking about when we tal... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
This was, yeah, interestingly enough, this was the only test of the four over the past several days that, as far as I can tell, had never been administered before. As a full test. As a full test, of course, yeah. The pieces had shown up previously, as we'll talk about. Yeah, I think our theory was that they were most l... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
The pieces had shown up previously, as we'll talk about. Yeah, I think our theory was that they were most likely to reuse a test from before. And of course, for the other March LSATs, they did just that. Exactly what they did. But for this exam, they really didn't. They've actually pieced it together. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Exactly what they did. But for this exam, they really didn't. They've actually pieced it together. Now, we know that some of the sections that they used were experimental, as we'll talk about. For example, there were 2017 experimentals used. And I saw a few comments online that were saying, well, it wasn't a new test. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Now, we know that some of the sections that they used were experimental, as we'll talk about. For example, there were 2017 experimentals used. And I saw a few comments online that were saying, well, it wasn't a new test. It was reused, and they did these experimentals. OK, the way that it works, though, is every LSAT h... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
It was reused, and they did these experimentals. OK, the way that it works, though, is every LSAT has been used, each section, as an experimental at some point. They have to test this out. So if you were going to say that an exam composed of experimentals isn't new, then there is no such thing as a new LSAT. So the fac... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
So if you were going to say that an exam composed of experimentals isn't new, then there is no such thing as a new LSAT. So the fact that they were using experimentals from just a couple of years ago, this is the new normal in terms of the cycling that they do. About at the year and a half point, you can expect that yo... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Now, someone might say to themselves, I'm going to go back and study those experimentals from prior tests. And I appreciate the industriousness of that view, but I will say that is going to be of no value whatsoever to you. There's just no way to predict which experimentals are going to show up at which time. And even ... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
And even if you could, you just wouldn't know enough information about what was on those experimentals to make it worth your while or worth your time. To even call that unhelpful would be misleading. I think that would undersell the damage it could do. If you spend your time trying to match content to memorized past ev... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
If you spend your time trying to match content to memorized past events, you've really lost focus on the goal, which is to solve what you're doing. So yeah, this whole matching exercise, it's interesting after the fact, which is where we are. But during the test, just focus on what you get. Put another way, a new LSAT ... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Put another way, a new LSAT is one where the content that's scored has never been scored. That's how I always think about it. I think that's a good definition. All right. There were 100 questions on this test. From what we can see, we'll talk through the individual sections here as we go. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
All right. There were 100 questions on this test. From what we can see, we'll talk through the individual sections here as we go. Before we do, Dave, you mentioned the experimentals. They pulled a couple of experimentals from a few different past tests from 2017, from what I can tell. So let's bounce through the differ... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Before we do, Dave, you mentioned the experimentals. They pulled a couple of experimentals from a few different past tests from 2017, from what I can tell. So let's bounce through the different sections, Logic Games, Reading Comp, LR. And we'll do it in that order. And just talk about if we can tell maybe where it came... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
And we'll do it in that order. And just talk about if we can tell maybe where it came from in the past. And then very broadly, as we mentioned, the general topics of some of the real content that existed there. OK. All right. Start with Logic Games. Very standard 23-question section. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
OK. All right. Start with Logic Games. Very standard 23-question section. Four games. No surprise there. We knew that was coming. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Four games. No surprise there. We knew that was coming. In no particular order, these were the topics from what we saw in games. Again, I'm not going to tell you the variables. I'm not going to tell you strategies. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
In no particular order, these were the topics from what we saw in games. Again, I'm not going to tell you the variables. I'm not going to tell you strategies. Even game types. This was linear. This was grouping. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Even game types. This was linear. This was grouping. I'm not going to do it. But I will tell you at least what the games covered, which I think is fair. It's out there. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
I'm not going to do it. But I will tell you at least what the games covered, which I think is fair. It's out there. The first game was about restaurants, specials, I think, over a given week. There was another game about a debate between various teams, a game about suspects visiting different cities, and then a game, a... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
The first game was about restaurants, specials, I think, over a given week. There was another game about a debate between various teams, a game about suspects visiting different cities, and then a game, again, in no order necessarily, about authors, people publishing books, I believe about crops, planting crops. Planti... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Perfect. So those were the four games. If we looked at them a little more individually, though, was there any standout moment here that you can tell? At least from what I saw people talking about. And again, this is all public. Probably that third game about the suspects in the cities was the one that people complained... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
At least from what I saw people talking about. And again, this is all public. Probably that third game about the suspects in the cities was the one that people complained about the most. It's always really hard to tell, though, because obviously when somebody runs into a difficult game earlier on, it affects their view... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
It's always really hard to tell, though, because obviously when somebody runs into a difficult game earlier on, it affects their view of later games. So maybe the last game's really hard, but a lot of people didn't get to it. So we can't be entirely sure. I know there were 23 questions in this section. But from a diffi... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
I know there were 23 questions in this section. But from a difficulty standpoint, certainly you heard some Logic Games complaints, that one game in particular. I wouldn't say, though, this was a killer section, though. I wouldn't either. This was no September 2016 virus game where everybody came back and they were like... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
I wouldn't either. This was no September 2016 virus game where everybody came back and they were like, what just happened to me? I've had my mind erased, that kind of scenario. This was, all right, that was tough. I didn't like that. That game felt bad. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
This was, all right, that was tough. I didn't like that. That game felt bad. But overall, I felt pretty good about it. So I would say a tick towards the harder side, but not hard. More in the medium, medium hard. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
But overall, I felt pretty good about it. So I would say a tick towards the harder side, but not hard. More in the medium, medium hard. There you go. 6 out of 10. I think that's a really good analysis. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
There you go. 6 out of 10. I think that's a really good analysis. 6 out of 10. Right? Thanks. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
6 out of 10. Right? Thanks. I felt good about it. Yeah, now this was also a section that we're not certain when they've used it previously. And that doesn't mean anything. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
I felt good about it. Yeah, now this was also a section that we're not certain when they've used it previously. And that doesn't mean anything. Yeah, that's a pretty interesting thing. It doesn't. But did you see, I can say I haven't, did you see any section reports come back with double Logic Games? | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Yeah, that's a pretty interesting thing. It doesn't. But did you see, I can say I haven't, did you see any section reports come back with double Logic Games? You mean in terms of the various section orders? No. Everybody who, it seems like every single test that I know of from that day, everybody had a single Logic Gam... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
You mean in terms of the various section orders? No. Everybody who, it seems like every single test that I know of from that day, everybody had a single Logic Games section. I didn't see any double Logic Games people, meaning one of them was experimental and one of them was real. That's really rare these days to have t... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
I didn't see any double Logic Games people, meaning one of them was experimental and one of them was real. That's really rare these days to have that circumstance come up. Wasn't so rare a long time ago, but now it's really rare. Yeah. Rare too, because more and more people are reporting. There's people out there talki... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Yeah. Rare too, because more and more people are reporting. There's people out there talking about this stuff. Now we get a far greater data set when it comes to section orders. And despite lots and lots of them, I didn't see any where people had a game section that was experimental. Yeah, and that's not a point I hear... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Now we get a far greater data set when it comes to section orders. And despite lots and lots of them, I didn't see any where people had a game section that was experimental. Yeah, and that's not a point I heard or saw anyone talking about either. I think it's one of those things you have to step back a little bit and t... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
I think it's one of those things you have to step back a little bit and think to yourself, what am I looking at? And when you start sifting the entirety of it, you get a sense of that. But does it matter? No. No. No, aside from the fact that it makes us really confident as to what the four real games were, which is alw... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
No. No. No, aside from the fact that it makes us really confident as to what the four real games were, which is always nice. Everybody comes back with one Logic Games section. It took like two seconds for them all to agree on what the four games were. There's no mystery there. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Everybody comes back with one Logic Games section. It took like two seconds for them all to agree on what the four games were. There's no mystery there. But a lot of people did have experimental reading comp. So this took a bit more sifting on our end to piece together what the four passages were. 27 question section t... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
But a lot of people did have experimental reading comp. So this took a bit more sifting on our end to piece together what the four passages were. 27 question section taken, at least in part, and I think in totality, from the June 2017 reading comp experimental, or at least one version of the experimental section used i... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Yeah, so not the actual June 2017 RC section. That's been released and is now retired. But one of the experimentals that was administered back in June 2017. And considering that they administer multiple experimentals often of something like reading comp or LR, people had no idea how hard or how easy a section like this... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
And considering that they administer multiple experimentals often of something like reading comp or LR, people had no idea how hard or how easy a section like this was. I think, though, that when you look at the whole of the response on this, this was probably the hardest section of the test. I heard that a lot. I got ... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
I got that vibe from people, too. I don't know if that's because people are just generally better prepared at Logic Games now, maybe, than they used to be. I think that helps, because usually LG would take the title. Often, yeah. It only takes one hard game for people to start getting upset about the difficulty level. ... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Often, yeah. It only takes one hard game for people to start getting upset about the difficulty level. Reading comp, you look back at the last six, seven years, there's been some really tough passages out there. Things like the Kate Chopin passage, people are like, yeah, I don't ever want to read anything that she's wr... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Things like the Kate Chopin passage, people are like, yeah, I don't ever want to read anything that she's written ever. And it wasn't her writing. She's actually a good writer. It was the passage about her. But what were the four topics, at least, if you can give it to us broadly? And again, I won't try to do this nece... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
It was the passage about her. But what were the four topics, at least, if you can give it to us broadly? And again, I won't try to do this necessarily in order. Let's just see how these come out. There was a passage about tipping servers. Interestingly, that's about all people said about it. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Let's just see how these come out. There was a passage about tipping servers. Interestingly, that's about all people said about it. So I'll leave it at that. A passage about early humans, hominids, and basically the evolution of upright walking in the savanna. So I suspect I know a bit of what that might be about. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
So I'll leave it at that. A passage about early humans, hominids, and basically the evolution of upright walking in the savanna. So I suspect I know a bit of what that might be about. But again, I won't go into details here. I don't want to give anybody an edge if they see that passage. A passage, a third passage about... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
But again, I won't go into details here. I don't want to give anybody an edge if they see that passage. A passage, a third passage about Argentinian novels. Specifically, I think it was about an author, Roberto. I'm probably going to butcher this. Arlt? | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Specifically, I think it was about an author, Roberto. I'm probably going to butcher this. Arlt? Is that how you say it? You got it, man. Arlt. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Is that how you say it? You got it, man. Arlt. All right. One for one. Literature and irony, I think, was kind of a topic there. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
All right. One for one. Literature and irony, I think, was kind of a topic there. And then a passage of the comparative, if I am correct in this, about restricting women and children's workday hours. A bill trying to restrict that back in early 20th century Britain. Those were the four topics. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
And then a passage of the comparative, if I am correct in this, about restricting women and children's workday hours. A bill trying to restrict that back in early 20th century Britain. Those were the four topics. Thrill a minute. I'm sure that quickened the pulse of many. You know, at least some. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Thrill a minute. I'm sure that quickened the pulse of many. You know, at least some. I probably had heard that the hominids passage was difficult on its own. It probably was the most difficult. But these are the kinds of things that vary from person to person. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
I probably had heard that the hominids passage was difficult on its own. It probably was the most difficult. But these are the kinds of things that vary from person to person. A science passage like that's always going to be polarizing. To me, when I look at these four things, that's the one that stands out. It's like,... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
A science passage like that's always going to be polarizing. To me, when I look at these four things, that's the one that stands out. It's like, I'd like to read that. But for most people, I think they would probably look at these four and be like, wait, I don't know anything about evolutionary theory or whatever it wa... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
But for most people, I think they would probably look at these four and be like, wait, I don't know anything about evolutionary theory or whatever it was on. You don't know anything about Roberto Arlt unless you've studied South American literature. This is true. Even if you went out, though, right now and said, I'm go... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Even if you went out, though, right now and said, I'm going to study up on Roberto Arlt, it does not help you. Because, of course, it's all about what the passage says. And you don't know that in advance. And you're not going to know that in advance. So even if you familiarize yourself with Roberto here, you have gaine... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
And you're not going to know that in advance. So even if you familiarize yourself with Roberto here, you have gained nothing. Because it does not give you any context for what the discussion is. And it could actually prejudice you in the wrong way. Absolutely. Oh, I read this about him. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
And it could actually prejudice you in the wrong way. Absolutely. Oh, I read this about him. That's not what the passage says, so you just chose the wrong answer. Absolutely. I remember, again, that really famous Miles Davis passage back from October 96. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
That's not what the passage says, so you just chose the wrong answer. Absolutely. I remember, again, that really famous Miles Davis passage back from October 96. I've taught classes before. In fact, it's happened in Los Angeles, where super deep jazz aficionado music guys would get in there. And they could rattle off d... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
I've taught classes before. In fact, it's happened in Los Angeles, where super deep jazz aficionado music guys would get in there. And they could rattle off deep cut Miles Davis tracks, stuff that no one has ever heard of. And they'll look at that passage and struggle just as much, if not more, than the person sitting ... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
And they'll look at that passage and struggle just as much, if not more, than the person sitting next to him who doesn't know who Miles Davis is. Sometimes a little knowledge hurts you more than it helps you. Yeah. Where it can be of benefit, I think, is if it helps you to engage or at least get this early sense of com... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Where it can be of benefit, I think, is if it helps you to engage or at least get this early sense of comfort. Like, I'll be OK here. But honestly, familiarity beyond that psychological effect can be more harmful than beneficial. I mean, it's still all English, though, so you're going to have some comfort zone with thi... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
I mean, it's still all English, though, so you're going to have some comfort zone with this. It's just a matter of how they put the words together, which sounds deep, it really isn't. It's not deep at all. You know, I think, again, probably the toughest section on the exam. But each of these LSATs is balanced out. When... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
You know, I think, again, probably the toughest section on the exam. But each of these LSATs is balanced out. When you have something that's harder, you're going to have something that's maybe easier or more normal. And I think that takes us probably to the two logical reasoning sections. Yeah. So if we want to talk ab... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
And I think that takes us probably to the two logical reasoning sections. Yeah. So if we want to talk about balancing reading comp, I think logical reasoning served, at least on some level, to do that, from what I've heard. Two sections of logical reasoning, both 25 questions. So if you guys are doing some mental math ... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Two sections of logical reasoning, both 25 questions. So if you guys are doing some mental math out there, that's 100 questions total. 23, 27, two 25s for the final 50. And at least one of these LR sections was from the December 2017 LSAT, Logical Reasoning Experimental. Yeah. Not sure about the other one. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
And at least one of these LR sections was from the December 2017 LSAT, Logical Reasoning Experimental. Yeah. Not sure about the other one. Again, and that's not unusual. Maybe they buried it on a Sabbath test. Maybe they put it on an international test. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
Again, and that's not unusual. Maybe they buried it on a Sabbath test. Maybe they put it on an international test. It's just not out there. Again, this is more of a backwards-looking point of interest as opposed to anything that helps us going forward. But the most notable thing about these two LR sections was you didn... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
It's just not out there. Again, this is more of a backwards-looking point of interest as opposed to anything that helps us going forward. But the most notable thing about these two LR sections was you didn't hear any complaints about them. I didn't hear a lot of people coming out, and they're like, man, LR killed me. I... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
I didn't hear a lot of people coming out, and they're like, man, LR killed me. It seemed pretty normal. Like, I felt all right about it. And there's always some tough questions. So when someone's like, oh, man, there were a few tough ones, I'm like, that's right. That's logical reasoning for you. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
And there's always some tough questions. So when someone's like, oh, man, there were a few tough ones, I'm like, that's right. That's logical reasoning for you. You have to expect that. That doesn't make me think that all of a sudden the section's difficult. And in fact, everything that I read and heard points me towar... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
You have to expect that. That doesn't make me think that all of a sudden the section's difficult. And in fact, everything that I read and heard points me towards the idea that these were right down the middle, very normal sections. Logic games, not overly difficult. Reading comp, probably the hardest. Put this test som... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment1.mp3 |
It means that the scored content was the stuff you're rooting to count. And that's always a good feeling to have. That's right. Because when, when that kind of situation occurs, because you're thinking to yourself, woo, good. The thing that I didn't want, that's not count, you know, that doesn't count. So it's not goin... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment2.mp3 |
Because when, when that kind of situation occurs, because you're thinking to yourself, woo, good. The thing that I didn't want, that's not count, you know, that doesn't count. So it's not going to be part of it. Yeah. Just for those out there wondering how they can tell what was what, let me run through a couple of the... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment2.mp3 |
Yeah. Just for those out there wondering how they can tell what was what, let me run through a couple of the question topics from the sections. For instance, I know one of the logical reasoning sections had a question that was pretty widely discussed about restaurants in the longterm versus like newer customers, newer ... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment2.mp3 |
That's all I'll say about that. The other scored logical reasoning section had a question about a mayor's comment, something about animals and dogs. I'm not sure if this was wolves or what, but wild versus sort of non domesticated animals versus dogs. There was a question in one of the two scored sections about tutorin... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment2.mp3 |
There was a question in one of the two scored sections about tutoring students. And their spelling ability and what that kind of does to their overall academic ability as they progress. At least that's how I understood it. Question about the study on happiness and physical activity. Question on blameworthy and morally ... | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment2.mp3 |
Question about the study on happiness and physical activity. Question on blameworthy and morally wrong. It sounds like one of those kind of abstract ones that I love. Everybody hates. Yeah. I'll lead that march. | Ep. 10 March 2019 LSAT Review and Scale Prediction_segment2.mp3 |
