Hey Guys,

I am wondering what you guys do with the questions/sections that you missed (due to time, etc) when doing BRM. For example, if you did not answer 10 questions do you circle them all and come back to them like you would normally the 2nd time around?

Would they still count towards your BRM score?

Thanks for the help!

Most beers in are cans. Most cans contain beer.

Conclusion: The number of beers is not greater than double nor fewer than half the number of cans.

B (---most---) C

Conclusion: 1/2C < B < 2C

Most cans contain beer. Most beers are in cans. Most beers contain alcohol.

Conclusion: Some cans contain alchohol.

C (---most---) B ---Most---> A

Conclusion: C some A

Let me know if you think this makes sense. Thanks!

Found this earlier and it's working quite well so far. I've been dealing with birds and landscapers for the last couple days, and I know I'm not the only one with this problem.

But if any hunters want to come deal with the bird that flies in to my windowpane at 3PM everyday, feel free to swing by. Very bizarre, annoying phenomenon.

Hi everyone ! I signed up to take the powerscore live class for the October lsat and I'm wondering if anyone here has taken it before ? I've written the lsat twice and exam anxiety got the best of me the last time... 7 sage has been really helpful so far but I'm determined to get in this cycle and I think that an in-person class would be helpful.

If anyone's taken it before, do you have any tips/recommendations ? I scored in the 140 the first time I wrote it (I was 18 and didn't study at all), and the second time I Had an anxiety attack in the middle of the exam because I thought I filled the bubbles in wrong.

I know that it's an exam you need to learn and not study and I'm slowly trying to shift gears into thinking that way this time around. But if anyone has taken the powerscore exam while using the 7sage course I would love your thoughts and how/if doing both programs together helped your score.

When will it be released?

Hi all,

I'm really new to this, just started the Ult+ class on Monday. I'm a little bit confused about the best way to use the curriculum. Should I be completing all of the problem sets during each lesson, or saving some material for later? I am also especially asking about the Intro to Logic section; did people do all the quizzes right away, or save some to circle back to for practicing and studying down the line?

Sorry, I know some variations of this have been asked elsewhere, but I couldn't seem to find an active thread to ask in. I just don't want to miss out on any good techniques!

Thanks!

After browsing several LSAT forums and websites, there seems to some sort of unofficial consensus (though not everywhere) that three months is adequate time to study and prep for the LSAT? The LSAT is a beast of a test and I could not imagine leaning the foundation, taking enough PTs all in three months (without severe burnout), and expecting to do reasonably well. I understand that people can learn at different rates but if the 7sage core curriculum and the 7sage discussion board has taught me is that slow and steady really does win the race. Just wanted to get peoples thoughts on this, I just found it interesting!

Hey everyone. So I've been going at it with this test for more than a year now. I used to solely rely on the memory method and no notations, but now for the past few months I've been doing Nicole's notation strategy with a small kick of just writing like 1 or 2 words next to each paragraph (e.g. background info, evidence, and so on).

I haven't seen improvement the way I would like to, and RC is the only section holding me back from getting into the 170's. I'm like a machine on LR and LG, but RC just doesn't seem to want to work with me. I miss mostly detail and inference questions, and I usually can always get the bigger picture questions right such as MP and function of a paragraph ones.

I'm starting to get frustrated as even when I do passage untimed, I still cannot go perfect on them and sometimes miss an embarrassing amount. I read for structure, tone, etc. and all of that good stuff but nothing!

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Has anyone ever used sudoku (or any other numbers puzzle) in their free time to get better at LG or increased their reading of complicated articles to help with LR? If so, have they seen any positive results?

Hey 7Sagers, I'm leading another twelve-hour long LR workshop (#6) over four nights (three hours per night) for seven students to provide an intensive and comprehensive overview of all foundational concepts and their application to all types of LR questions.

Schedule

Session 1 - May 5, Friday, 7-10pm PST (10pm-1am EST)

Session 2 - May 6, Saturday, 7-10pm PST (10pm-1am EST)

Session 3 - May 7, Sunday, 7-10pm PST (10pm-1am EST)

Session 4 - May 8, Monday, 7-10pm PST (10pm-1am EST)

Cost

Free. But! There's a $150 deposit to reserve your spot. If you show up on time and participate for the entire duration of all sessions, your deposit will automatically be refunded fully at the end of the workshop. Otherwise, it is forfeit. Please make sure you can attend the entire 12 hour long workshop.

#Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How will you select which five students will participate?

A: Lottery. If you are interested, please comment below in this thread within 48 hours. If selected for the lottery, you'll have another 48 hours to place the deposit to reserve your spot.

Q: Who should take this workshop and what will be covered?

A: Beginners. This means you haven't finished the Core Curriculum yet and you're not starting to take PrepTests yet. Imagine the workshop as a fast paced overview of the entire Core Curriculum that pertains to LR. We'll cover theory and we'll apply that theory to actual LSAT questions. It will be highly interactive and hence the limit of four students. Wherever you are in the Core Curriculum, this a great way to solidify the concepts covered.

Q: Can I sign up even if I'm not a beginner?

A: Yes, you can. I'm certain that it'll benefit you to return to concepts covered in the Core Curriculum. I'm also certain that you will find it very slow at times since I will be speaking to students on the assumption that they are beginners.

Q: Do I need to have a paid 7Sage account to sign up?

A: Yes, you do. If you have an expired account, message Dillon and see if he's willing to reactivate it for you.

Q: What materials are used in this workshop?

A: The workbook that you will be provided with will contain LR questions from PrepTests 54, 55, and 56. Yes, we will be "burning" those PrepTests in order to get a closer look at the modern LSAT.

Q: What do I need to do to prepare for the workshop if I get in?

A: You should print the above mentioned workbook. You should be in a quiet space where you can talk freely. You should have a fast internet connection. You should have headphones or earphones ready.

Q: How do I attend the workshop?

A: The workshop will be hosted on Amazon's Chime. Instructions and meeting location will be sent to you once you've successfully registered.

Q: Will there be more workshops in LR / LG / RC in the future?

A: Yes. This session accommodates east coasters who work during the day. Future sessions will accommodate others.

Will some of you please share what your diagnostic test score was and what you are hitting now after taking the 7sage course? Thanks!

After much deliberation, I have decided to attend the University Chicago Law School. I came really close to picking Notre Dame because they offered me a near full ride but as others have mentioned before, the doors that Chicago opens are just unmatched by most schools. The debt was a hard thing for me to move beyond but at the end of the day, I think it will all be worth it. I have heard people tell me that I am a dreamer but today that dream becomes a reality.

I can do a BA in Bio and still do this thing right? I checked the website and they never specify what type of Bachelors degree they want.

I'm planning to take the June LSAT and have started taking PTs. I have the Premium course, which includes up to PT 58. I was curious how many of the newer PTs one would recommend taking to better simulate what the more current test is like. Also, do I need to upgrade my account in order to hear explanations on the newer PTs (59+)? Thanks!

I've been studying seriously since February and am worried about my progress. I started with a 134 cold diagnostic and the highest PT ive gotten is a 156. My score has been stagnant for a while. LR was my weakest section so I focused on that for 2 months and haven't gotten much better (still averaging -12 to -8). I'm not sure what to do since Im registered for the June test. A 160 is all i really want. Should I focus on all sections of the test again or stay focused on LR for now?

Thanks

Hey guys. About to do my first timed LSAT as a diagnostic as per the syllabus. Since this will be the first test I take as well as being the first time I go through actual questions, is blind reviewing worth it? Since I don’t know the tactics to take on LG and RC (etc) , will blind reviewing be worth the time even if I don’t fully understand how to answer the questions?

Howdy 7 Sagers

So I signed up for this curriculum about a month ago, and am a little under half way through the core curriculum. Thus far when I take take the problem sets I feel fairly good about them, but some days still feel discouraged. Does this test ever get simpler? Also if anyone is still in their Undergrad, or took this test while in their undergrad, and has tips I would greatly appreciate that. I'm taking the September LSAT and would like to score 165+. Thanks friends!

Hi Everyone, my first post on here wanted to get some answers on this.

So i believe that I am good at reading No statements. However, I want to be sure that I am translating/understanding them correctly. I still feel iffy when reading no statements from time-to-time. Is there any advice you can give or a rule of thumb that I should consider.

I know "No" is a group 4 translator and all that this encompass. However, when reading a statement like, "No single species of dinosaur lived throughout the entire Mesozoic era"

Can this be said as: Every single species of dinosaurs did not live throughout the entire Mesozoic era

or

Can this be said as: All single species of dinosaurs did not live throughout the entire Mesozoic era

Also, is there any other words that I can use besides "Every" and "All" that can break down No statements.

Thanks a bunch guys! Appreciate any response back.

Ask him anything!

Hi all,

What's your pre- preptest routine? I want to have it become automatic before the June, or September, lsat.

This is what I was thinking (and I haven't actually done this, it's theoretical):

Total time: 1 hour.

Thoughts? Any additions-subtraction?

hello, I'm using google chrome to print the preptest thats been uploaded as a secure document. But every time I press the print button, the printing "job" won't go through my printer. there isn't anything wrong with my printer since I can print other documents without any problem. Has anyone faced similar challenges? I would appreciate if anyone could share some solutions!

For those of you that are registered... I had to send in a confirmation email to DigitalLSAT@LSAC.org in order to confirm my participation today. Otherwise, according to email, my seat would have been released. Perhaps an oversight on my part from the original email? Just wanted to give everyone a heads up who hadn't done so.

I understand the importance of getting into a top law school, but why does the 'golden marker' seem to be T14 or higher? What I was hoping would be my 'safe' school (pending LSAT scores), Georgetown, just dropped to #15 on the 2018 list. Are the best, most notable schools really only 14 and above?

I've been studying the LSAT for a little more than 3 months now, and I've greatly improved in RC. But LR is an issue. I finished the CC about two weeks ago and started taking timed individual LR sections to see where I stand in terms of LR, and the results are not so great. I took four timed individual sections from (PT36 and PT37) and got -6, -9, -8, and -8. BR turned out to be -5, -8, -4, -5, respectively. For the first two timed individual sections, I didn't use a clean copy for BR, which is why I think there wasn't such a big difference between the scores. But really, am I just expecting too much from myself? I'm trying to bring down my LR score to -1/-2 before I start full PT mode, but I don't really know how I can reach it. In terms of timing, I do skip difficult ones and end up finishing all the questions with about 5 minutes to spare. If anyone has any advice then I would really appreciate it!
