Happy holidays everyone!
Favorite moment is when I did my first homework && got the first 20 questions all right. Then I started crying after that when I got to flaw questions
I'd have to say the dream i had about the LSAT... it involved me waking up in the morning, getting to the test center on time, sitting down and turning to the page to see a logical reasoning section. The first question had no question stem, and the stimulus only said "YES" in big block letters. The answer choices were A) Yes, B) No, C) Maybe, and D) Refrigerator.... that was by far the funniest and most memorable LSAT related moment to date.
Picking just one of my favorite stories -- Happened just yesterday but shows how everything LSAT and 7Sage has infiltrated my life! My daughter and I had just had a conversation with someone, trying to identify a third party to him. My daughter described the other person as blond. On our way out, she asked how we should remember the guy we'd just been talking to for next time as we only go to this place once a year or so. I immediately said "non-blond" in contrast to her saying brunette. JY has taught me well -- in logic, negation is a binary cut :-)
You Can't top this TRUE story:
The moment my LSAT proctor told me my analog watched looked like a piece of spyware. Why? Because the day counter looked like it could be used to take photos of the exam. X thought the day counter was wide enough to be a micro-camera. X told me to leave the testing center so i could put the watch in a safe place...... then seated me in the back of the room where I could not see a clock.
Is there really such thing as a favorite LSAT moment? The entire ordeal is just dreadful and if only my mother allowed it, I'd rather sell one of my kidneys (black market style) and live the rest of my days in Bora Bora. I guess the only time I've moderately enjoyed the LSAT is the day of; when I know that it will all be over in just four hours and I can go outside to see the sunlight for the first time in a year (at least, until scores come out and I have to crawl back into my tower of prep books). So, indirectly, thank you LSAT for helping me realize how valuable moments with friends, family, and fresh air is with the little time you give me to live my life.
That moment when I got an entire Logic Game section done with 4 minutes to spare, all the while hearing JY saying in my ear getting pissed at the answers!
I don't know if the contest is already over, but generally, my favorite thing about 7sage has been JY's demeanor in his jokes in all the videos. He made me feel so much more optimistic and enthusiastic about the whole study process and law school application.
Specifically, my favorite moment was when I was watching the PT72, LG 4 explanation video. When I had taken the PT, I thought to myself, "wtf is happening???" I burst out laughing when JY started the explanation video with, "...And this is the game that everyone's like, 'wtf is happening to me right now?'" It was really comforting to know that I wasn't the only one that felt that way about that game.
My favorite moment occurred during the writing section of the Dec 2014 LSAT. (Right?!) I was able to write an essay in similar fashion to the arguments made in Reading Comp: spending one paragraph explaining the side I was about to refute, then explaining how my position was better; addressing possible assumptions that would weaken my argument, etc. I felt both relieved and confident that, hey, the LSAT isn't a complete waste of time. It really tests your ability to reason - one of the hallmarks of being a good lawyer.
I definitely would not have reached this level of understanding without 7sage. I have a stronger grasp of arguments. I can "hear" causal relationships when others speak ("If I can go to the mall, then..."). It's easier to cut through weak arguments on TV, in the news, on Facebook (haha)... it's even honed my critical thinking skills. It's amazing. Is this Stockholm Syndrome? Maybe. But secretly, I enjoy the idea that the LSAT in some twisted world, has merit; that the benefits do not end with a number.
That understanding, regardless of the score I get in January, makes it all worth it.
(P.S. Discovering the Batman voice for the LSAT Proctor is a close second. :D )
my favorite moment: is when I read enough into the whole LSAT/LSAC operation and realized what games can a nonprofit with over $150 million income come up with. Monopolized the whole system.
My favorite moment: my husband always hangs around when i listen to J.Y's logic game videos. So when i was taking practice tests I used J.Y's proctor voice. My husband goes: hey that sounds like the guy in your videos! I was like: yeah it is the same guy. He was quite baffled by the fact that you can choose your own proctor voice and one of the voices is J.Y's. I started laughing so hard at his reaction.
My favorite memory is finishing the first time I took the LSAT (September 2014). Even though I didn't perform well, I was confident. And I was thrilled to finally be at...well, not a finish line but a checkpoint. I registered for a 7Sage Starter course today. I am planning on upgrading to Ultimate course when finances allow it and gearing up to retake the LSAT in June or possibly October. Hopefully there will be lots of good LSAT memories coming soon.
My favorite moment in studying for the LSAT would have to be my first PT. I had printed out a few tests and accidentally combined them incorrectly - because there were just so many papers. I remember looking at the answer sheet and being so so so upset about getting like basically nothing right out of the second half of the exam. I was so down and thought wow law school should totally just not be an option…then I realized I had combined the papers incorrectly…and had actually taken two tests (half of each). LOL.
This is pretty awesome everyone! We're ending the contest in roughly 36 hours, so please submit your entries if you haven't done so yet. And VOTE! We'll definitely pick popular vote winners along with our favorites.
My favourite part of writing the LSAT is no longer dreaming about playing logic games. I'd take a reading comp on art history any day over one of those dreams!
Favourite moments: when doing LR, have a super clear sense for the right answer or missing logical piece after reading the question and stimulus; and know trap answers (especially those hide in deep) when eliminate choices. Hello test makers, I know you are trying to fool me, but I am not to be fooled! Hahaha
There were a lot of things that I liked about studying for the LSAT, including:
- Getting noticeably better at undermining flawed reasoning (and at avoiding such flaws in my own reasoning).
- Learning about random and awesome things in reading comp.
- Meeting nice folks through my study group.
But the best one of all:
- Feeling completely and utterly confident while writing the December test.
When one 7sager linked:
My favorite moment was remembering all the elements of the last logic game of the December 14 LSATs experimental section, including all the ordering and rules. As if I had taken a picture. However, I could not remember the subject matter at all, which baffled my husband...
Favorite LSAT moments of mine involve recognizing invalid argument forms in daily life. Ah, the joys of understanding the limits of argument by analogy and the dangers of sufficient/necessary reversal....

I think in general, just knowing LSAT lingo is pretty fun. When you're talking with someone else who is also studying for the LSAT about the LSAT and then someone else who isn't studying for it overhears what you guys are saying, the looks are usually priceless.
Listening to radio ads were never the same after studying for LSAT..."sample size flaw... generalization flaw...flaw..FLAW FLAW!!!"
