I have recently been finding that when I am finished taking a practice test and am reviewing the few I got wrong, I’m able to nearly instantly see why I got it wrong and why the right answer is right. It’s frustrating though that I didn’t see it during the test what becomes so obvious later.
I think it is a combination of A) seeing the correct answer marked that I look for what’s right about it and what’s wrong with the answer I chose, and B) all the time I’ve spent on Graeme’s site reading his explanations.
I wonder if there is some kind of strategy to devise where if one can’t decide between two answers during the test, to sort of imagine both scenarios where the test is finished and one answer is definitely notated as being the right one where I chose the wrong one. Maybe approaching that way I can see which scenario produces the same “duh, that one is clearly the correct answer” while the other doesn’t. Maybe that will get me over the final plateau into 173-plus territory.
I’m rambling, sorry. The fact is I have improved GREATLY already from Graeme’s insights and wanted to say how appreciative that he shares himself as an LSAT resource to others.
I’m not sure how to replicate the “finished test” feeling but generally what I advise to do is to double check their work using more than one method. For example, check quantifiers (some, most, all), check for conditional statements (if-then), check degree of certainty (should, will etc.) in addition to the question’s reasoning. This way, if an answer choice fails at least one of these tests, then that should indicate that it’s incorrect.
That’s helpful too, thank you. I took the February LSAT last week but know I didn’t do as well as I could have. I can often ace sections but sometimes get 1,2,3,4 wrong in a section when im off my game. I just need to get it so on test day I am able to do three of those ace runs in a row.
I don’t get another crack at it till April, so before then I need to find ways to catch those few mistakes. I will try your suggestions for sure.
