So, I’m a little over a week away from the date for my LSAT. I’ve been preparing a bit here and there and feel fairly confident about four out of the five sections. Reading Comprehension? No problem. I’ve only been reading since I was three years old. Logical Reasoning? No problem. I like debates and I’m one of the few people I know who memorized most of the Fallacies’ List and can call it up at will. Analytical Writing? What, are you kidding me? That’s easy.
But the Analytical Reasoning? Kills me. Every. Single. Time.
Oh, I can generally get more correct answers than I get incorrect. And, on single axis questions, I do fine. But if you give me something with multiple dimensions, that’s it. Game Over. I’ll do better by eliminating the obvious answers and just freaking guessing than I will by trying to hone in on the one correct answer.
So, since knowledge of your weakness is a strength, guess what I’m going to be spending most of my free time doing this next week?
If you guessed “working on mastering Analytical Reasoning for the LSAT” then give yourself a cookie. And save one for me. I’ll need it after I get home on December 3 from taking this test. I’ll need that cookie, a healthy dose of Jack Daniels, and a dark, quiet, cool place to hide where I never have to see another three-level matrix for a question again.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have more work to do. ><
