The only thing I was excited about was that the things I got wrong during this practice exam were topics I haven't covered yet with my tutor. One would see/hear that and say - "Well it looks like you're on the right track!" and what I say to that is... "I don't care I want to see an improvement every time I take an exam."
The last topic we went over was number properties. I'm starting to get the very very very basics, but if something new is thrown at me, I don't know how to think around it. We'll definitely need to spend at least two more sessions going over that. When I look ahead to all of the topics that we need to go over still I just hear the cash register sound going off in my head. Cha-Ching Cha-Ching because I know I have many more weeks before I'm completely ready. Then on top of that there's one thing to be ready and there's another thing to feel confident, which I believe comes afterwards. Well I do have a deadline in my head and a potential exam date so that's what I'm aiming towards.
On the topic of CR... well.. I'll be honest. I emailed him earlier today if we should stop working on CR and focus on other things. That way I can focus on it by myself with GMAT material instead of LSAT material. I think the LSAT language is getting in the way. But then.. when I think of that statement I say to myself "Well if other people swear by LSAT material...it should be helping right?"
Maybe I need to just do a CR set from the OG Guide again to see where I stand (Just emailed him to ask him that question.) I've realized that I'm a very needy "tutee." I email him constantly. Ratio of my emails to his responses is.. well today... 4:0, but that's because I email all day everyday. To me it's simply an ongoing conversation, so if I think of something before he responds I just re-forward my last email and add in my new comments. But when he respond it's to all of them usually late at night since he does have a life! As I typed this sentence he emailed me back! I kid you not.... No screenshots this time, just take my word for it.
In any event we have just added the Veritas Number Properties guide to my homework sheet and I get to do a CR set from the Official Guide. Let's see how this goes! ::sigh:: you should hear me cursing at this exam!
Well part of my homework is to get proper amounts of sleep. So... since it's almost 12pm that means I need to start getting ready for bed.
I am the weakest link... goodbye!
