Just finished my first LSAT take (August) and thought this would be a good time to give something back to the 7Sage community!
I've been studying for the LSAT for a year. I started with a diagnostic of 157 (although it wasn't a true diagnostic score as I'd done the Blueprint video course beforehand). I've gotten my PT score up to the 170s with my highest being 177, and a lot of that improvement was thanks to the 7sage question taking interface and explanation videos.
I also found a wonderful tutor @Christopherr through 7sage who helped me get from the low 160s to the 170s.
The most intimidating section for me was logic games. Although I got to a point where I understood the games and could do them without losing any points untimed, when it came to doing all 4 games under time, I felt hopeless.
Thanks to a combination of @Christopherr, 7sage, and analysing my own mistakes, I learned about several strategies that I could use to shave off time without losing out on accuracy and wanted to share them with anyone who might be interested.
This session is aimed at people who are familiar with all the game and question types and are now working on their speed. If you're a beginner you might benefit too as these tips could prevent you from forming some unhelpful habits.
We'll go through a sample game or two (I'll pick some from the pre-60s so as not to "spoil" any more recent ones) while I talk us through my approach, and you can ask any LG related questions that you have.

hey there,
will you be offering any more sessions ?
Hi! Yes I'll do one this coming Saturday on LR.
thoughts on the foolproof method?
I wasn't able to attend - is there any way I can get a recording of the Zoom session?

Hi guys, thank you all for being at the session and being so supportive and helpful throughout!
Here's the list of reminders that I'd written for myself for LG:
https://classic.7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/29674/lg-tips-for-accuracy-under-time-pressure-from-a-170-scorer
For those who missed it and asked for a recording, I unfortunately didn't get one, but the list above covers the strategies we discussed during the session, I just used a game to illustrate them and how they apply when doing a game live.
I'll be doing a session on LR next Saturday (a little later in the day though) again focusing on main takeaways for saving time.
I just joined but didn't need to put in passcode. Also I'm the only one in it...Hope I'm in the right zoom meeting
Love this!!!
