How does one do that? Who do I email or speak to? Help?

So this is my problem. If I give myself ten extra minutes for each LG section I do, I will get 100% right. Every time. But the issue is time. Often times, I find myself struggling over a problem because there is ONE RULE that I haven't seen the full implications of. When I finally see it, I say to myself, "Oh...duh!" and wonder why I didn't see it in the first place. After about three months of studying, I went from a 161 to a 173, but I haven't practiced LG nearly as much as I have RC and LR. If I can shore up my LG, then I'll be set. Can anyone help me out? Is my problem simply due to a lack of practice? Thanks.

General Michaels rejects the use of outdated weaponry. All other generals do not reject the use of outdated weaponry. Therefore, General Michaels is the best war strategist.

A) Rejecting the use of outdated weaponry is not a factor in being a good war strategist.

B) Rejecting the use of outdated weaponry is not sufficient to be a good war strategist.

Hey everyone!

This may be an odd question, but to all of those belonging to the LGBTQ community, do you mark on your applications that you identify as LGBTQ?

I am trying to figure out whether or not this is a good choice? Do school's actually care? Does this contribute positively or negatively to your application?

Since this is a safe space (thanks to all of you that are awesome 7Sagers!), I'd like to add that I identify as bisexual, but I am not super "out" about it. It is not something that defines me as a person, and if you don't know me, or have only known me for a short amount of time, you'd probably never know because I have been dating my boyfriend over the past couple of years.

Only my closest friends and family know about this, so I am debating whether or not I should bother marking what I identify as....

What do you guys think?

For my diversity statement I am thinking of writing about going through a both physically and emotionally abusive relationship for 4 and a half years. I ended things about 3 weeks and its by far one of the most impactful things that has happened in my life. I initially was going to write about how my father left my mother and I when I was in high school and I could also tie the two together but do you think the abusive relationship story is going to be too much? I don't want the readers to think its a sob story and I certainly will frame it in the way that it made me infinitely stronger (and it did) but I just don't know how tense/serious the topics can be for diversity statements.

I got a letter from LSAC today saying there was a discrepancy with my SSN. My master file (which, I checked, is correct) does not match what I wrote on my answer sheet on test day. So tomorrow I have to fax them my correction.

Will this delay my score?

Go see Rogue One. Seriously, go. It's great.

I am having issues watching the videos on an iPhone. Is anyone else having this issue? It has been this way for some time but I've just been using the app. None of the three options are selected in my settings. Should I change any of these? TIA

I've been studying for about a year and my last few PTs (PTs 60s and 70s) have been 163-167. Do you guys think there's any value in the earlier PTs (other than LG, of course)? I really want to take in June, and use the Fall as my fallback just in case.

I just want to know if it's worth spending time doing the earlier PTs (other than LG), because I don't know whether the test has changed drastically since then.

After taking a month off I'm ready to get back to it, I plan to take two per week at minimum, three maximum while doing full BR. I do want to take in June and I'm afraid it may be cutting it close in terms of time.

Hello, is there anyone here who has applied to Canadian schools? Reading past forums, OLSAS has posted a mark breakdown at the end of November/beginning of December but there is no such info on my OLSAS yet. Further, logging into the schools webpages (ie windsor law) it says that they have not received any of my information from OLSAS yet other then my LSAT score.

Has this happened to anyone?

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone could take a look at my personal statement for a public interest law program. I plan on going into civil rights law and the personal essay discusses this ambition.

I've been reading about these different games that are apparently on the LSAT now? Are these really that much harder than the old games, or are people struggling with them on the test because they simply aren't expecting them? That is to say, are these new one's just as learnable if you can see them coming?

So, I was looking for advice in the TLS forums, and pretty much everyone told me to rethink my entire life plan. The plan is (or was?) to take part in OU's early entry program, which allows me to start 1L a year early. The catch is, I don't technically have my BA until after 1L. The plan all along is that my husband and I would stay in Oklahoma, but recently we've been wondering if we would really be happy here forever. So, I was planning on doing well enough (top 5%) and applying to transfer to a T14 school. If I got in, we would move. If not, we'd stay.

Everyone in the TLS forums (all current or former law students) told me that I should reconsider this path and that I cannot bank on being in the top 5% of my class. The more I thought about it, the more it seemed like a risky plan. If I'm not able to be in the top 5% of my class, then I would be stuck in Oklahoma...forever.

Anyway, now I'm rethinking my entire life plan. Since we're not sure we would be happy living here forever, I'm leaning toward finishing my BA (graduate a year from now) and retaking the LSAT in June (unless I somehow miraculously scored over a 170 in Dec) and applying to T14 schools next cycle.

Thoughts? Good plan? Or should I stick with my previous plan? I should also mention that I am a little older than your average 1L...29. (sorry I am so needy for advice on here...)

Are there technically 2 application fees? One for the LSAC, and one for each school?

I've noticed that some of my target schools don't charge an application fee. So, would the LSAC still charge me to apply to those schools?

I have read a couple success stories with people who had issues with logic games and jumped enough to increase their overall scores to the 170's from the 150's.

My case is that I was scoring -8 in LG, -7 in RC, and -20 in LR to begin with. My improvements have come through slowly, and I do believe it is because I am working to improve on a more difficult section.

With that said, is that normally the hardest route to take in terms of improvement? Are any of you guys faced with the same situation? If so, how have you attacked jumping your LSAT to your desired range?

Hey is anyone else having problems with the proctor feature on the 7sage app? I use an iPhone and as I was taking timed sections today, it would cut off right before the part where the proctor says, "...and start working now." And not only that but it essentially wasn't really keeping the time as there was no 5 minute warning nor did it tell me to put my pencil down after the 35 minutes was up. This proctor feature has been invaluable to me and I really don't want to switch to anything else. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

Do we have to talk about why we are applying to a particular law school in our personal statements? Some of the schools I'm applying to do not ask for a "Why School X?" type essay so do we have to talk about that in the personal statements even if it's not asked of us in the prompts?

Assuming I was perfect through the first 3 LG's, I believe I have a great shot at my "This makes me happy" result. In fact, I felt so good about the other sections that even a single correct guess on Game 4 would give me a decent shot at my reach goal.

My only fear is that I am overconfident on my performance. I generally have a strong read on LR and RC, and the consensus seems to be that those were 3* sections or below. It sometimes happens on LG, but the first two games seemed easy. I literally do not even remember what they were about, which is normally a good sign. The second one was trickier, but I believe a double sequencing set-up and (late) recognition of the key inference lead to solid results there.

I am currently working full time and would not want the stress of another month of work then library til midnight, study all weekend. However, I need to come within 2 points of my goal to get the financial offer that makes it much easier to go back full time. For reference, I was averaging one point higher than my goal over the last five simulated tests, all of which were from the 70's series.

I'd appreciate perspectives of others as I mull it over.

Hey guys,

I believe the answer to this question is no, but are there any methods to obtaining preptests in PDF formats? I have a bunch in standard paperback that I purchased, but I would really like to have a couple of printed out versions for retakes.

Anyone willing to critique my PS?

Hello, I am looking for a study group in NYC to start studying for the LSAT 2017. We can meet over the weekend or weekday. Let me know.

Hello all ,

i sat for my first attempt at the LSAT on december 3rd and I'm eagerly awaiting the results , but i was just wondering whats the best way to review the exam once i get my score?.

from what i understand you get a photocopy of the exam itself. should i treat it like a new exam and redo it?or should i BR my answers instead?

also , how long does it usually take 7sage to upload the answers for the test?

thanks
