My fellow June Test-takers!
Please take a look at this tentative schedule below and comment your thoughts/revisions. I also have a TON of “notes” that I’d like you to consider. Please leave any thoughts about them in the comments below. You should also add me on Skype. My username is dmlevine76 .
NOTE: We’re trying to organize some 2-3-Hour interactive workshops with 7Sage tutors during the month of December. They’ll be on specific fundamental topics like Blind Review, Finding Assumptions/Flaws, and Active Reading. Be on the lookout for another discussion within the next week as we try to organize this. However, if you are interested in attending, please say so in the comments below. Also, if you’d like to suggest a topic, leave that info in the comments section. It’s all new, so we’re trying to make sure we’re matching up supply with demand. If they’re successful, I’d like to continue them into January.
NOTE: We’re starting at PT 29 because we have so many extra weeks. It’s true that many of the questions from the problem sets will be in these tests, so we really need to take those scores with a grain of salt. That being said, it’s still good practice.
NOTE: I front-loaded the PT 70s for Fridays because I believe that people need to get eyes on 70s sooner rather than later. We’ll still have PT 77 available to PT in May. Trust me when I say it is worth it to do these tests twice.
NOTE: Friday’s attendance has been hit-or-miss. I’ve been considering I AM changing Group BR days to Tuesday-Thurssday-Saturday. Tuesday and LSATurday would be the regularly scheduled tests and Thursday will be the “wildcard” day. Please leave your thoughts in the comments.

I'm happy to accommodate the request. Are there any objections to moving the sneak-peek of PT 70s back a month?
Based on the chatter I’ve been getting, I’m going to revise this schedule from Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays to Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. Fridays have been hit-or-miss at best. I was thinking Tuesdays and Thursdays will have a very consistent PT schedule, but LSATurday will be a wildcard: we could do a Workshop or a PT in the 70s, etc.... I won’t institute this change in the schedule until January.
If this is something you really don’t want us to do, now is the time to make that opinion known.
Hey Dave! I threw this all on a Google sheet in case people wanted a different way of looking at the schedule:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CbppExCcbrg94HfA5ufjftgjH_yF4ewpHRcAvpbRpLY/edit?usp=sharing
I hope I didn't miss anything!! Please let me know if I did!
I've made it view only-- feel free to DM your email address so I can give you editing privileges @kingofclubs323292
Is there anyone following this schedule that works full-time (9-5)? I am trying to follow but the most I can do is two tests per week. It usually takes me 2 - 3 days to do a good BR.
I usually need one night to take the test and the next two/three nights to BR. I do go over every question but I only type out my reasoning for the ones I circled and for the ones I got wrong. I also watch the videos.
I haven't been able to make a call because I'm either behind or have a scheduling conflict. I'll be taking PT 40 tonight and hope to have it BR'd by Sat night.
If I am watching JYs videos and able to understand the method, is it necessary to get on the call? If the calls are more beneficial, is it necessary to watch the videos?
Wondering if there is a better (quicker) way to do this without compromising the learning process.
@kingofclubs323292 Thank you for being so accommodating!! I am fully supportive of whatever is best for the June group. In my case, delaying a month would be gratefully appreciated:)
You are always so, so great @kingofclubs323292 for all that you do. Thank you!
@2626 Thanks to the 7Sage community, the BR calls are now on GoToMeeting, DumbHollywood actor posts every week with the sessions and the link to join.
The following link will explain how to find the PT's. If you have the ability, I highly recommend getting the PDF versions if Cambridge website still provides them.

No trouble. In fact, it’s already been updated. We’re not actually pushing anything back; We’re just adding more options. We’ll just cycle through 70-74 twice.
@kingofclubs323292 is winning on all cylinders.
I also don't really feel comfortable touching the 70s until I have at least 10 more tests under my belt (so like, PT 49). I'd love to touch the 70s after 49, and of course cycle through them again before the test.
Hi all! I'm interested in joining the listed group BR tomorrow for PT37.
I just did PT37 using the 7sage proctor app but mistakenly had it set for a 28 minute section for the first 3 sections! No wonder I couldn't finish any of them in the time limit! Still it was good practice with trying to maintain composure when running out of time.
After break I set it for the standard 35 minutes on section 4 and finished 5 min early. Guess I still had go-faster mindset after those first 3.
I plan to do some earlier PTs to help proof out my PT testing setup so I don't waste future unseen PTs on issues like this.
I'm just starting going through the curriculum here.
It is never too late to join. People come and go as it pleases them.
@kingofclubs323292 is it to late to join now? Until I finish the curriculum I'm only going to be in on Saturday's but I really feel that since many of them are the 70's PT's and I'll be retaking them later that it could really help my prep and understanding and I'll still have the rest with the group otherwise when I finish the curriculum.
Not till Saturday. See you then.
Is something happening tonight?
@emilyharake753? Every Saturday at 5 p.m.
Edit: Ooops... didn't see that Dave replied. It was on the second page.
@kingofclubs323292, If i can chime in on the weekday schedule... I've never been on a BR call before, but given the time conflict, perhaps we could ask everyone attending what questions they would like to go over before the BR begins. Maybe we could tally those questions and select the ones that gave almost everyone a hard time. It could possibly cut the time down from 3hrs to 2.5/2hrs? If so, then we could start the call at 9P EST / 6P PST and end before midnight / 9p? And anyone who wants to stay on the call can go over any other questions they have. I'm located in NYC, so I am happy to start later so long as we get through the questions that everyone struggled with first.
As for weekends, I think we should start early, like 11-12p EST / 8-9a PST. I think it's best to just get it out of the way so that we can try* to enjoy the rest of the weekend. :)
Again, this is just a suggestion. I really appreciate all the time everyone has put into this. Sooo very helpful!
The BR groups should be for everybody. Would a Sunday BR Group be well attended? We could add that to the mix if I thought more than 5 people would attend regularly...
@mmaritzagarcia303 welcome!
You can come and go to the BR groups as you please. They usually run around 3 hours and usually start off slow (sometimes, it takes over an hour to get through the first section).
The BR groups and the workshops, though organized both by me, are two separate entities. One is a group who get together to discuss particular PTs. The other is a webinar-like workshop, centered on a particular fundamental topic and lead by a 7sage tutor.
@kingofclubs323292, what other types of prep would you do aside from the 3-4 PTs? Drilling and retakes?
Good morning,
When will the new schedule be updated. I see you have changed the days to Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Thank you for all your help @kingofclubs323292
Dave! You are so on top of this! THANK YOU!!!! I'll probably be hopping onto this too... as you might have been able to tell, I'm jumping off of the Dec train (still trying to figure out what my game plan is from here on out..) But definitely looking forward to more BR calls with you and the gang!
I think the Friday BR schedule for me-- in general it's always an issue of trying to complete the the PT, and have enough time to BR the test on my own, do the group BR and then get in any kind of review or refreshing for topics I'm struggling with (I know this portion will decrease with more practice)-- and trying to do that for most of the scheduled PTs in that week! Granted, my schedule is a bit more flexible so I'll just fix my schedule based on what the majority of people want to do.
On a side note: I wish 7Sage discussion area has some kind of iCal/Google Calendar function where we can just easily post all the BR sessions and whoever is subscribed to that calendar (that BR group) would get notifications or reminders on the site as to when the BR is-- this would take a lot off the BR leader's hands! As always, thanks Dave!
Each day of the BR call, I put out a discussion alert on the forum. There’s a link in that discussion. Click it and you’ll be sent to the meeting. Just wait if there’s no one talking right away. Here’s today’s alert: https://classic.7sage.com/discussion#/discussion/6952/june-test-takers-tonight-pt49-br-8pm-et
How do I join the BR call on Thursday?
