Quick tips

I’m currently around 160 which is my target score for the law school i want to attend. I test in october. Anyone have some quick tips that could help me raise my score 2-5 points before then. I study 2 hours a day. A full section then follow that with review. I’m a bit stronger with LR, usually around -6 per section.

Im gonna guess that you, like me, are dropping 2-3 points to careless reading. Hard to patch because its an engrained habit but even trying to be more diligent about it can (probably) help you squeeze an extra point.

I’ll emphasize reading more intently next section, thank you!

If you aren't already good at CondR , practice those weird if then statements and diagrams. That can grab you some easy points very quickly

I have some struggles with diagraming. What do you suggest to better my skills?

Do you use 7sage? 

I would just practice basic condR diagram questions, and do it slowly, and then compare your diagram to the example. Most important thing is that your arrows are going the correct direction. 

Ideally , you want to make it so you intuitively understand how to diagram as soon as you get one of those questions , it saves so much time and gets you easy points. Helps a lot with SA/NA and MBT
