404 Error

Hi, as I was studying the syllabus today I tried to move on to the next section and received a "404 error page not found." I tried to select another section of the module to see if it would work but the same error occurred, I cannot access any of the material. Is the site down for anyone else?

I just took test 39 and after several months of diligent study, I did 173 on the test. Several days ago I got a 169 and then reviewed and reflected.

I wavered off a few of the questions, but my instincts are building. I am trusting the process and using the video explanations to really advance. I am seeing the patterns in the test and how formulaic it is.

Hi all,

I recently finished the core curriculum’s lessons on logical reasoning and tried my first PT after my diagnostic. My diagnostic was a 150, and my second PT was a 144, after finishing the core curriculum’s lessons on logical reasoning. I tried another PT today and score a 146. Can I increase my score to a 170 by October? I plan to write the lsat in October and should have sufficient time to study, but am worried about the lack of progress. How do I improve my lsat score? Is it just about practicing questions and trying as many as possible?

Thanks in advance

In the new LR curriculum, JY mentions the importance of thinking about the mode of reasoning before going into the answer choices. I know the basic modes of reasoning that we covered in depth (part to whole, cost-benefit, etc) but later in the video lessons, he mentions specific ones (trade-offs, unintended negative consequences, interdependence) that he only touches on when discussing the answer choices. For the harder questions with less common modes of logic, I find myself struggling with putting these modes of reasoning into words which makes it harder to see flaws/analogous arguments, so does anyone have any resources that can help me get familiar with them? Thanks in advance!

I'm confused on my progress. The last few PT's I've taken over the course of a month have all been in the high 150s, so I've started to switch up my approach and purely drill for the past week. LR is my worst section, so I've been prioritizing that. Yesterday I took 3, 10 question randomly-generated LR drills and got 26/30 correct. I was very pleased with that. Today, however, I got only 17/30 correct. All the drills randomly generated were between 25%-35% expected incorrect.

I'm not sure what to do at this point. My diagnosis score 3 months ago was a 146, and since then I've only gone up 10 points or so and have not seen any improvement in over a month. I'm feeling a bit stuck here as my PT's are remaining in the same range, and my drills go really well one day, and not so well another day. Any advice would be much appreciated as I am feeling very discouraged and lost at the moment. Thanks!

Does anyone know of any resources that resemble the skill builders from the core curriculum, but mix them all up together? Since the skill builders lump all the similar ones in order, I can feel my brain zoning out and not actually learning the drill but instead just copying and pasting the format of the answer.

I am going to make a quizlet that basically mixes all the skill builders from the foundations unit, but figured I'd see if it already exists before I do!

Looking for active study buddies who are putting in respectable hours prior to the September test (preferably those who already have the foundation understood).

I’m located on the west side of the United States (Eastern time) and don’t mind in person but I know we could maximize our time and attempts best through “Discord”.

Please only respond if you are looking to actually start studying immediately. If you are unsure of your study schedule this late into the game you can try to find a session on going when you can.

I’ll send a message with the discord link to those who are interested. Will be doing a 2 hour session tonight for “Logical Reasoning”.

Feeling Defeated

Hey guys. I am starting to feel really defeated when it comes to this test. I am doing amazing on the you try its when I was going though the core curriculum and its just getting my timing down for that. I keep seeing just keep drilling and your speed will get better. However, whenever I take a PrepTest, I am BOMBING them. I seem to get more questions wrong and my timing is horrible. I have no idea how I'm supposed to jump a minimum of 10-15 points by October. I have been studying for 4 months now and I have only improved 9 points. Any advice would be greatly appreciated because I feel like I'm seeing law school slip through my hands and its crushing me.

Who's ready to crush this test?? We've put in the work and now it's time to sit back, relax, and enjoy the show. Note down some words of self-encouragement or if you're not taking it yet, give us August test-takers some hype!!

Hello everyone,

I am currently asking professors for LORs, and am a little worried. My classes are all online, and I'm worried that the professors may not take LORs as seriously as they would if we were in a traditional classroom setting. So far, I've asked two professors, and they both said they would be glad to do it, but one hasn't responded to my follow-up email from a few days ago, and I'm worried that she may have just forgotten about me or changed her mind. Any advice on how to stay in touch with these professors via email without bothering them?

Do Questions Repeat?

Hi Folks,

I completed Practice Test 104, and I noticed that PT 104, Section 1, Logical Reasoning is identical to LSAT PrepTest 27 Section 1. Is this common, or is it new because of the format change?

How can I best avoid repeat sections? When I was viewing LSAT PrepTest 104 before starting, it stated that I had done only one question. This is probably because PrepTest 27 was done with the obsolete format.

Appreciate any advice!

Best,

Stiv

I wanted to take a preptest, and I didn't realize I was under the obsolete format category of preptests. LG was the very last section. I just skipped the section. However, I haven't done blind review yet because I feel like my actual score is going to much lower / my data in analytics is going to be off since I skipped an entire section. I know I can manually input the #correct/#incorrect to see what I actually got, but is there any way to avoid it screwing up the analytics portion? Or is it not really going to mess with it since LG is gone?

Best LSAT Quizlet?

Hi Everyone,

I was wondering if anyone has founded/created a good LSAT quizlet that has logical indicators, premise/conclusion indicators, etc.? Basically, the more "memorize" portions of the LSAT.

Would appreciate any assistance!

Best,

Hi everyone! I just switched to 7sage. I am wondering what the difference is with V2. Should I switch to it?

I am also wondering how Practice Tests are scored now that Logical Games are not tested. Is that section still graded in the practice tests on here?

Hello, I am kinda late to this process and I took a diagnostic test and scored a 135 and my goal is to get a 155 on a LSAT and I am planning to take it in October or November. Any tips and strategies that could help me. My weakest part is Reading comprehension.

Public calendar link

Is there a public calendar link for all of the live classes? I would like to be able to sync everything onto my personal calendar app and then just look at the events from there.
