Hi all,

I feel so honored being able to finally make a post like this but damn does it feel good!

I got my score back from the October Asia test today and got a 174!

This is my personal best. I scored a 164 on the June test and had several 169s and one 173. Looks like I peaked on test day!

I never took a true diagnostic but scored a 153 untimed when I took the June 2007 test before beginning my journey. Guessing it would’ve been in the 140s timed?

I have so many people to thank for supporting me, but I especially want to give a big shout out to:

@"Lucas Carter" @"Cant Get Right", Rav, Alex divine, Jon Denning from powerscore, Ellen Cassidy from Loophole, and the Jedi master himself, JY

This community has been so supportive and helpful throughout my 1.5 year journey. I’ve met so many wonderful people. I really couldn’t have done it without the 7sage community!

Some tips and info for posterity:

I used 7sage and the Loophole for my prep. The LSAT trainer did not help me that much. I think combining the Loophole and 7sage methods helped me get to -1/-2 averages on LR, sometimes even -0.

@"Cant Get Right" method on skipping and moving on when you hit a certain expected value prediction helped me limit time wasted.

reviewing the common flaws daily on quizlet, with LSAT question examples, helped me quickly identify flaws and not waste any time

doing half a section of timed LR sections daily, from sections I have already done (odd questions one day then even questions the next) helped drill pacing, skipping, and my LR approach.

deep dive BR and then thoroughly reviewing, setting questions I just didn’t really get aside in a binder and then revisiting until I got them

practicing translating RC passages into my own words and then being very strict with my POE process in the questions: eliminate inaccurate ACs and picking the ones that required the least assumptions

repeating “be sensitive to the support” as a mantra on every LR question so that I would stay disciplined and attack the gap rather than the premises or conclusions

Lastly, worry about getting good before getting fast!

Best of luck everyone!

The Real Mike Ross

    Do you know if 7Sage will put up the webinar or has put up the webinar for this? Or does anyone know?

    Zoom seems to be what most people use around here. The free version of zoom only lasts about 40 minutes tho and it limits the amount of people who can attend.

    Hello Everyone!

    Very cool news to share. @jhaldy10325 and I just finished a phone call discussing how this webinar would look like and we are going to get some materials together this week

    @jhaldy10325 and I will be hosting a webinar tentatively SATURDAY, APRIL 11TH, 7:30PM EST, pending official confirmation from 7sage administrators!

    Wow this really blew up haha!

    Ok gotta stick to my word so I’ll do it as long as @jhaldy10325 is cool with it!

    The question is how to do this.. I’ve never hosted a webinar before. I’m guessing zoom? Anyone have ideas??
