New Fuzzy Sets (Capybara) Game

I love the new Capybara game! This is a perfect connector between Visual Learning/Diagramming/Conditional Reasoning. I struggle a lot with visualizing Conditional logic (literally the main thing holding me back according to analytics) and this will definitely help. Overall thank you 7Sage for providing these games!!!

Hey everyone, here’s what’s new this week.

Features

  • New game: Inference Bee It's a daily conditional logic puzzle in the style of Spelling Bee. Each day you get five rules about a cast of characters (wedding guests, pirates, dragons, law students) and chain them into every inference that must be true, climbing from 120 to 180 as you go. It trains the move behind a lot of Must Be True questions. It's free and you don't need to log in. Play Inference Bee

  • New game: The People's Verdict You're the judge on a TV court show. Two people with a petty dispute each state their side, and you sort claims into what they disagree on, what they agree on, and what at least one of them never weighs in on. Then you rule on the case, just for fun. Each hearing is five cases that get harder as you go, and there's a leaderboard. It's great practice for point-at-issue questions, it's free, and you don't need to log in. Play The People's Verdict

  • New: Wrong Answer Journal inbox The new Wrong Answer Journal inbox makes journaling your misses more convenient, so you'll actually do it. Give it a try and tell us what you think. Full details

  • App offline mode: storage management You can now see how much space offline content takes up on your phone and choose how many lessons and how much practice content to keep downloaded. To free up space, go to Manage Downloads and scroll to the bottom to remove everything or just the videos, which take up most of the room. Drills in offline mode are coming next. Part 1 · Part 2

Others

  • Want to be in a 7Sage video? Apply by this Friday, Nov 6 We're filming a YouTube video where students at different score levels (145–155, 155–165, 165–175) talk through the same LR question out loud, and then Kevin breaks down what each person noticed. It takes about 30 minutes on a video call, with no prep needed, and there's no "wrong" way to do well. You choose how private to be, from full name and face down to fully anonymous with your voice altered. We'll only ever show score ranges. Everyone we select gets a $50 gift card to the 7Sage merch store. Apply here by Friday, and we'll contact the people we pick by 11/10. Full details

  • This week only: $99 personal statement workshop Meet with a 7Sage Consultant to work on your personal statement. Send a draft, an outline, or just your brainstorming notes when you sign up. We'll read it and come ready to talk through what to improve, from line edits to choosing a whole new topic. Use code ESSAYWORKSHOP99 at checkout. It's limited to one per person while spots last, and the deal may close early if we get swamped. Book here

Thanks for all the feedback that keeps shaping these. Keep it coming!

Hey everyone,

We’re making a new video for the 7Sage YouTube channel and want some of you in it.

The idea: a few students at different score levels each talk through the same LR question out loud: reading the stimulus, going through each answer choice, and explaining why they keep or cut it. Kevin will do the same question, and then he’ll walk through what each person picked up on along the way. The goal is to show how people at different stages approach a question, so there’s no “wrong” way to do well in this video. Please don't worry about how well you're scoring now!

Who we’re looking for: students currently scoring in one of these ranges, based on your recent practice test average or an official score:

  • 145–155

  • 155–165

  • 165–175

What’s involved:

  • About 30 minutes on a video call, sometime in the next couple of weeks

  • You’ll share your screen and think out loud through one question. No prep needed, and we’ll walk you through everything beforehand.

Privacy is up to you. You can appear with your name and face, use just your first name with your voice only, or be fully anonymous (no name, no face, and we can alter your voice). We’ll only show score ranges, never your exact score.

The prize: everyone selected to film gets a $50 gift card to the 7Sage merch store.

To apply, fill out this quick form by this Friday, November 6th:

https://docs.superhuman.com/form/7Sage-Video-Participation-Interest_dgnYcZfty7o

We’ll reach out to the people we pick by 11/10 to sort out scheduling and a few details. Thanks, everyone. We’re excited about this one!

Advice on studying for November

Hello everyone, my dream school is University of St. Thomas in Minneapolis, and their median LSAT is 160. I have been studying using 7Sage since January, and my goal score is a 160; however, I received a 155 on the October test. I realistically only have 12 days left to study and 5-6 hours each of those days. I have taken 12 PTs total; on 7 I received a 160-165 (165 being my highest and only scored once), and on 5 I received 155-159. The more recent PTs have been the most difficult for me and that is when I would score in the 150s. I really, really want to reach my goal in November, and I'm trying to find ways to study efficiently. I dont know if it is realsitic but all I can do is continue to study for November.

For the October test, I spent the few days prior to my test meditating and truly clearing my mind, and it actually helped my test anxiety- I honestly think I might have been too calm during my test, which could have affected how I approached questions, maybe?? I'm not sure, but I just want to focus on studying since I don't think test anxiety was my issue.

So for the next 12 days, I am planning to only focus on newer LR and RC sections as well as drill my priority question types. I do think that the older tests were easier and probably inflated my score, which is why I want to focus on the newer ones that are more similar to current tests. I still have 2 recent PTs left, so I really want to take those. I have always been uncomfortable with RC, so I want to drill as many passages as I can just to feel comfortable with it. I also usually spend a large majority of my time reviewing wrong answers, but honestly, for these next 12 days I think it would be more beneficial to practice more than review.

I really don't know what else I can do, so any advice would be greatly appreciated!!!

ADVICE NEEDED - International Transcript

I am submitting an international transcript from a Dutch institution where the official language of instruction and the Education and Examination Regulations are also in English. LSAC is not accepting the English transcript because English is not the country's official language; however, my former University said they do not provide Dutch transcripts because Dutch is not an official language of the University. Any advice for this situation?

2

I'm working on filling out the LSAC application page for each of my schools now, and they all have some iteration of an education section that says "list ALL educational institutions attended." I studied abroad through a program that works regularly with my college, and my study abroad courses, grades, etc. are all included on my transcript, so I know I don't need to order my study abroad transcript. I wasn't going to include it in the education section because it's specifically a study abroad program, not its own institution, but I did check out of curiosity and it is listed under schools, so now I'm not sure. Should I be including it in my education section?

Prometric

Just want to give a shoutout to prometric for creating the greatest website I have ever used. I love the added stress from the website just not working and making me try multiple times just to schedule a time for my test! Shoutout to all the prometric engineers. Still unable to schedule! very cool.

Omg the explain it plainly new feature at the bottom of each page is exactly what I wanted! It’s a brief moment to make sure I’m actually digesting the information and not checking the quota for the day.

Thank you to the 7Sage community for coming out with this great feature.

Hi! One (relatively) low-stakes suggestion I hear from people on improving my LSAT score is to read more. People say to read law reviews, news articles, science journals, etc. Essentially, read anything that is somewhat challenging.

In my free time at work, I have been reading a lot of NPR articles over the last few weeks, and maybe it's confirmation bias, but I genuinely believe it's improved my analytical thinking and short-term memory. It's been particularly useful right now as I wrap up the Reading Comprehension Modules.

So my question is: What are y'all reading? But even more specifically, what sources? Is there a certain journal or publication that you find interesting? I tend to struggle more with the science passages in RC, so I'll definitely be targeting science-related sources, but I'm really open to anything. Psych, History, Law, Philosophy, etc. ANYTHING.

Ideally, this could be a thread where there's enough variety that anyone can find something for them. Hopefully this post doesn't get lost in the abyss...

I noticed under analytics and by question type the analytics include "skipped" questions, are those being counted against my accuracy score?

If so, is there a way to filter those out?

I have accommodations for no experimental so I skip the experimental sections and as a result, I have many skipped questions in my analytics.

Thanks!

Hello! Does anyone have any intel on law school fairs and whether they are valuable to attend? I am on the fence if I should attend one in LA, it is about a 2.5 hour drive from where I live. A lot of law schools I am interested in will be there, but I don't know if is worth the drive. Does anyone with experience here know if you actually glean unique information attending these, if law schools track who they speak to at such events, or if showing face can have any impact on your application to xyz school? Curious and feeling rather uninformed. Thanks :)

Attention

Hi, I first would like to preface that I'm unaware if this is an appropriate topic to post here, so if it is not, please let me know, and I will take the post down. I really didn't wish for it to come to this, whether it be for ego purposes or something else, but I'm wondering if I need to seek professional help or guidance on the possibility of me having attention deficiencies. My mind gets very muddy, and I cannot focus properly when I take PTs. The words occasionally just aren't absorbed by my brain. I don't know if it's just the nerves, but I don't know how where I'd even be able to seek professional help for this. Any help or comment is appreciated. Thank you.

Hi, I just wanted to ask those who done the games to nail down LR, how helpful are they? I have never tried them, but they seem (for some) to work wonders. What has your experience been?

Race/Ethnicity - MENA option PLZ

It really sucks how often MENA (Middle Eastern and North African) is excluded from race/ethnicity. I know federally it's categorized as "white," but the racism I've faced growing up and my very ethnic name beg to differ lolol. LSAC also has a MENA category. I would really love to also identify as MENA and find other MENA students. We are such an underrepresented group, and I am curious how other MENA people are writing about their background in essays and what you guys are selecting under race. I personally do not want to use white because I am not... and the whole categorization of MENA as white is super outdated. This was a ramble!!! But 7sage staff if u see this can u plz add MENA category <333 and also if ur MENA as well if you can comment below what your identifying as ( I know LSAC has MENA but not sure about individual law schools) and how u plan to discuss ur background greatly appreciated
