The Dawn of a New Era

I start my LSAT prep course today. Wish me luck!

...Well, that was a delightful exercise in terrifying. For the record, I did great on everything, except the logic games, which, well, let's just say I haven't gotten spanked that hard since I last roomed with Paddington on a debate trip was a toddler. Well, that's what the prep course is for, I guess.

Still, the sooner the forces of post-modernism overthrow the hegemony of logocentrism, the happier I'll be.

A bit of advice:
If you possibly can convert the prep course into one-on-one tutoring time, I'd recommend it. I got to take a free LSAT by volunteering to field test the exam, and I had the exact same problem: great on everything except the logic games. Instead of taking a prep course, where I'd have to sit through several hours of my classmates' trying to learn how to read faster and comprehend better, I called Kaplan and asked them to send me the tutor they had who had done best in the logic games. I didn't care what his overall score was as long as he was a star in that one section. They did, I improved my logic game abilities enough to get a score in the range to downplay a 3.1 GPA, and ended up working for Kaplan myself as both a classroom teacher and a tutor. Unless you need to raise your score in all areas, tutoring is better value for your money.
