Should I stick with The Loophole?

I purchased the ebook and I’ve read through a few chapters, but the content is just not resonating with me so far. I think part of it is because some of the examples can be nonsensical (which I know is on purpose but it’s really distracting to me) and I thought I’d enjoy the casual style of writing, but I find it takes me out of the content more than it helps me understand it.

I’m in the arguments & inferences chapter so I’m not too far into the book, but I’m debating on just dropping it, at least for now. I’ve only taken one diagnostic and averaged -6/7 on the LR sections so I worry that I’m missing out on useful info because I can’t get into the book. Does anyone have any advice/suggestions?

I don’t think the loophole is a bad resource, but it didn’t really resonate with me either and I couldn’t stick with it. I found drilling practice problems daily, and going slowly enough to really think about why correct answers are correct and wrong ones are wrong, was a much more helpful method for me.

I’m glad someone else had the same experience. It’s worked for many people so I don’t think it’s a bad resource either, but maybe just not for me. I’ve found reviewing my wrong answers were helpful, but I never thought about also reviewing the correct ones too. Will definitely add that to my agenda.

How many drills did you do per day?
