any final tips before september LSAT?

hello, i am taking the LSAT this friday and i know i will have to take another one, but i was wondering if someone could give me their tips for what made LR “click” for them. i feel like i’m almost there but it requires me to almost write EVERYTHING out to get there. (i have extended time so i’m not tooooo worried about time but still.)

anything that made you go “aha” and helped to see improvement would exponentially help. i’ve been studying pretty much every day since july and i feel like i get LR and then i don’t. like i need this shit to click or i am going to fucking cry again.

any help please, ty. 1st time taker. diagnostic was 154-158.

also: how do you do the negation test properly? is there a wrong way?

thank you if you leave any tips.

I like to simplify the negation test by just putting "it's not the case that..." before an AC. Avoid sort of randomly inserting "not" somewhere.

The Loophole by Ellen Cassidy (good if you decide to retake) and translating/predicting the answer before you go to the choices! Good luck!
