can I used lined paper or does it have to be blank

As this is a popular source of reading material for working RC practice into leisure reading, I thought someone here might want my issues. I usually just recycle them, but I'm sure someone here can put them to good use. I have two to get rid of now... three by weeks end.

I can mail you a couple issues every couple weeks (within the US) free of charge as long as my subscription continues, on the condition that you:

Please post below, or I can update with who ends up getting them. Maybe we can just designate a chain of custody in here or something... anyway first person to agree in here hit me up with your address.

Also have some Scientific American issues in pdf that I'll send to anyone who wants them. Read them all so I'll be deleting the files. Maybe a year's worth... a couple years old (2017). For these as well, it'd be great if you pass them on to at least one other 7sager who could benefit from having them. I'll send them out to a few people before getting rid of them.

Edit: so a lot of them are too big to email. I'm hosting them on drive here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1AIQxQ0aFEXJusBA0hejBMtXEcv5qzRLu?usp=sharing

As long as this links up it'll be active. Will probably take it down in a day or so.

If anyone has any copies of Science or Nature, I'd love to trade, but completely unnecessary.

Edit 10/31 STILL AVAILABLE.

Edit 11/8 Bump... SciAm link is still up, but no one who expressed interest ended up sending me an address to forward the Economist copies. These are going into the recycle bin soon... last chance for free issues.

Hi all,

I would appreciate any advice on canceling a score vs postponing the LSAT.

Here's my situation - I took the LSAT for the first time in August. A mix of test day anxiety and technical issues (having my test closed out for me) resulted in a score much lower than my practice tests. I feel ready/prepared for the November LSAT. However I have been pretty sick these past few weeks and this week I still feel a bit dizzy/head foggy. It seems to affect my performance by about 2-4 points. I'm worried though that realizing I'm not in my best mental state x test day anxiety will result in a worse performance, or perhaps I can power through -- obviously, no one can answer that for me. My plan as of now is to just take the test tomorrow and if I can tell immediately after that my performance was affected by not feeling well, I'll cancel it and then take in Jan. OR I could just postpone and take it in Jan.

My question is how does a score cancelation look on your record? How might this compare to the downsides of taking the LSAT in Jan, when I'll be writing applications to schools that I'm not even positive my scores will make me competitive for? Any advice would be so appreciated especially since this is so so last second.

Thank you!!!

Hey everyone.

On the August LSAT I received a 160. I thought I was done, but I feel like I can still get a higher score. However if I take it again, it'd be my 4th time. What do you guys think?

I've noticed that working on the problem sets at the end of each section is very time consuming. 15 mins for each problem set is fine but 15 mins to review the answers is not okay lol. & after blind review that may take an additional 30 mins.-1 hr. and reviewing the videos for each problem set takes way over 15 mins. Am I the only one that has noticed this? I feel like I'm 10 hours behind on the the core curriculum :( because of the additional time devoted to BR & trying to watch every video explanation.

Hi I was wondering if there was a way to do a 25 question LR problem set with the full 35 mins without taking an official test. If you add 25 questions to a problem set they add to 33 minutes, which is 35/26 x 25. Is there a way to artificially override that time without adding time and half?

EDIT: Nevermind, I just realized there's an option for that in the time menu.

Anyone from Ann Arbor/Metro Detroit?

I'm starting to worry. My average is in the low 150's, which, for me, took a lot of work. My last three practice tests have been sub 150 and I've straight tanked my last two in the low 140's the past two days in a row (PT 83 and PT 84). I'm writing on Nov. 11th. Have I burnt out or is there some hope of getting back to my average or above on test day?

Thank you everyone, the 7 sage community has taken me from feeling hopeless to hopeful!

Hi everyone,

We recently changed the default video player to our new "Modern" video player.

If you would like to change your video player you can do so by going to the Settings tab and selecting one of the three options under "Video Player." See the screenshot below:

Let us know if you have any questions!

I have been studying on and off since May, and am taking the November flex as I have to take the November sitting for one school to even consider me, even if I am to rewrite in January. I originally started with Khan, hated it as I felt like I made no progress. No matter how well I did, studied, or practiced with Khan I could not get above 150. Stepped away for two-three weeks in August and then started again with 7sage + Kims lsat training guide in September. I also have a tutor who I talk with about once a week. I felt like I was doing well and then I had taken a practice test last week and scored 145. Completely bombed the reading comprehension.

Have I been wasting my time and money? For the schools I am applying to, I need about a 157 (Canadian schools). I had really good grades (double majored, multiple field schools), stellar resume, but just cannot seem to crack the 150. My plan is to write the November in order to just get it over and done with in order for one school to consider me, but am I going to be able to get to this 157 if my last practice test was 145? I am at a loss.

#help

how can I go back to the question on the PT to see the notes I put in when blind reviewing so that I can compare my reasoning with the explanation after I get my results ? I would like to see the exam so that I can go back over my reasoning and I put my BR notes in the notes section ...

Hello! Signing up for Dec. and LSAC prompted me to pick a testing location. I was under the impression all tests were Flex through April. Does anyone have any insight into this? Much appreciated.

Are the two FLEX simulated tests on lawhub the only way to practice via the FLEX interface ?

If you have received your score for the your LSAT FLEX - can you please advise if it was close to your PTing average ?

I completed my diagnostic - got a 154 and 158 after blind review - but did it under "FLEX simulator". A bit concerned regarding the accuracy of my score since no one is sure how the LSAC will be scoring the FLEX. I plan on taking FLEX in Feb.

I know I can just do all 4 sections to get an accurate score but am curious on those who received their FLEX score , how close their official score was to their FLEX PTing avg.

If we didn't like wordplay we wouldn't be in this racket

Hi, I have both an internal webcam and an external webcam, but I was wondering if it is permissible to use the internal webcam on a laptop. I know I have to do a quick survey of the room with the webcam, which is possible by simply moving the laptop around, but if I had to provide a view of my keyboard, I would not be able to do so with the internal webcam.

During flex, are we ever required to get a view of the keyboard (perhaps dependent on the proctor), or would a internal webcam be sufficient for all my rooming surveying needs?

Hi I live alone and the only available space for me to give my lsat can be on the kitchen counter shelf in my living room. Does anyone know if that will be ok with the proctor?

I take the LSAT Monday so I no longer need my 7Sage Ultimate plan. However, I would like to review what I’ve done until Monday. Does anyone know what happens when you cancel? Will all of my progress and information be wiped away?

Hi! Of course, night before my test... my webcam crapped out (because why would I have a stress free experience anyways?) I bought a new one, and now it is saying that the webcam height and width can not be found. Does anyone have the fix for this?

EDIT- just went and got a different one that works. Not messing around haha

Can I have a snack on my desk during flex? V important question

Taking the November test and was wondering if we can have our laptop chargers nearby? I don't want it plugged in because my laptop will get too hot but was just wondering if people had theirs nearby when they wrote.

For those of you who score above 170, how often do you guess on answers? On my last practice test, I got stuck on an LR question and sunk so much time into it that I had to rush through the remaining questions. I am aiming for 170+, so feel a lot of pressure not to miss questions, but sometimes this mindset seems to make it harder. Is the answer just to accept that I will inevitably get stuck sometimes and be ok with guessing, or does this just mean I need to study more to reach my goal? Looking for insight! Thanks!!

Came as admission swag last cycle. I won't be using it and it'd be a shame if it went to waste. Just take care of postage and it's yours. Leather, hardcover, comes with a pen... very swanky.

I'll mail it first class or media, but max cost I assume would be a priority flat rate envelope. Actually if you want it you could just send me a shipping label. Zip code 96706.

Claimed!. Claimant disappeared on me. Back up for grabs
