You spent months not only putting in all the work, but also sharing your experience and wisdom and touching so many of us on 7Sage. And you spent this past week watching us go through relief and anxiety and hope and freakouts, while you had to still stand quietly on your start line and wait for your own GO! whistle to blow.

You got through that and you're still kind and funny. You felt the pressure and didn't crack - as much as it tried, the LSAT's got nothing on you!

There's a reason the Elite athletes run on their own and not with the recreational masses - so all the spectators can concentrate fully on cheering them on. Brittany, you're our Elite athlete, and we're all here, ready to cheer you on tomorrow!

This Saturday at 3pm EST, I'll be hosting a Webinar on Anticipating Answers.

Anticipating is HUGE - I strongly believe Anticipating is a necessary habit for a top score. I teach my students to anticipate in some way for EVERY question on the LSAT. That's EVERY one of the 100/101 Questions on the test.

There's a lot of misunderstanding about how to anticipate and I'm doing this webinar to address that!

I scored a 173 (99th percentile) and I love tutoring the LSAT, so please join me on Saturday at 3 PM EST!

Last year, I applied to a law school and got rejected. (Because of personal reasons, I could only apply to one school. But this year, I will be applying to a few more schools) My lsat was average, but I thought I had a pretty strong application otherwise. (gpa, extracurricular, reference, personal statement) I got rejected pretty late in the cycle, and now I'm debating whether or not I should call the school to find out where my application was weak. I'm also rewriting the lsat in Sept to hopefully improve my score. Thoughts?

Thank you for your input! :)

I am looking for good books on applying to law school, specifically a book that discusses the whole process from writing your personal statement to getting LORs to hitting submit. Anyone have any suggestions?

Share the most unhelpful, naive, and downright stupid comments you have gotten so far regarding your LSAT studying and Law School admission process! I know I can't be the only one with some funny stories.

For example tonight at dinner my Dad said, "(Insert family member here) passed the LSAT in one try, so you ought to be able to too!"

UGH.

If I buy Ultimate+ now, the most recent PT included is 77. But will I also have access to future PTs as they are released and before the 18-month end date? Just want to know before I shell out the dough.

[Admin note: Ultimate+ includes 12 months now]

Hello everyone! I am writing the June LSAT in New Zealand in 16 days and wondering what else I can do besides taking Prep Tests to improve my score. I've read through countless material on the stuff and done lots of practice but I'm finding it hard to break my scores and really see any subsequent improvements. Is there anything else you can suggest to do to push past the point I'm at now?

I'm on the introduction to logic section, and I'm looking specifically at Group 1. When approached with a sentence like "Whenever it rains, it pours." I immediately, in my head restate it as "If rain, then pours." I know this is correct for Group 1, but I want to make sure thinking about it like this isn't going to hurt me in future lessons.

I'm bored at lunch so I decided to ask you guys what scores do you think you earned on the June LSAT. As usual in my threads, I will go first. I think I scored a 168 because that was the the top end of my pt range recently and the test didn't seem overly difficult compared to other tests.

I'm a mature student and haven't been to school since 2006. I can bet almost none of my professors even remember me . What is your advice for who to ask for LOR's?

I am currently working through the course and I am wondering do you typically complete the entire course lessons before taking another test? My diagnostic was test 56, so I still have the 2007 I can take. Should I take it now, that I have a more basic understanding... or take it once I am completely through the starter package course??? I guess I am semi desperate to see some improvement :)

Thx guys

How do people study for 6+ months without exhuasting materials. The going on this website seems like the longer the better. I'm confused...are you guys just redoing games alot?

I asked my university professor if he could give me a recommendation letter for law school and he told me to prepare a draft and send it to him and he will sign it. I do not know what to put in, is there any guidelines or sample that I can use? It would be great if you could give me some tips and ideas about what to put in since he gave me a blank check.

Hi,

I've been using the 7sage android app on my Samsung tab and have found a few glitches.

1. The video speed option does not work.

2. The print option on the quiz sections does not work.

3. The top bar menu malfunctions.

Here we are June LSATers..time to wait for scores.

What are some strategies for dealing with this horrible waiting game? Does anyone have cool plans now that the LSAT is over (for now at least)?

How do you all feel generally? Maybe it's psychological, but I feel like I under performed..I'm trying to estimate in my head what I went per section but I feel like I'm assuming anything I was unsure about was wrong. Is this normal? Basically looking to commiserate

This question may be putting the cart before the horse, but I am planning on sitting for the September 2016 LSAT and applying this same cycle (and would like to have apps out ASAP because I'm an aspiring splitter). Assuming all goes well with LSAT prep, how should I time the drafting of my personal statement and letters of rec. Obviously any work on these two areas trades off directly with LSAT studying, so should I plan on using the time between taking the test and getting results to hammer all of this out? Any insight or links to threads where this has already been discussed would be very helpful. Thanks!

I have a few withdrawals on my transcript. They are all non punitive and do not effect my overall GPA in any way. One was due to receiving a bad grade on an exam and having no way to recover because of the way the class was structured and the others were only because I changed majors and wouldn't need those classes anymore. Regardless of the reasons does this negatively effect my application?

So I'm unfortunately stuck having to drive out of state about 15 hours (each way) and want to make use of the downtime in the car.

Are there any podcasts or (audio) sections of the 7Sage lessons that anyone would recommend? If only I could figure out how to take a PT while driving :)

Is the LSAT prep helpful to GRE at all?

Where is the conclusion in the stimulus??

Hello all,

I’d like to start off by congratulating those who just finished taking this past June administration! I’m taking the LSAT this September, and I’m looking for some advice as far the PT phase of my prep. I’ve been fortunate enough to have access to every published PT, so I’m wondering if it makes sense to take every single one of them. Sticking to my original plan of taking every PT, I would be taking about 4 PT’s a week up until the September administration. I took PT’s 1-3 so far and my scores have thus far been sporadic, and much lower than I’ve anticipated considering where I believe my level of understanding actually is with the LSAT, and also having been through the curriculum twice with months of previous preparation.

After having taken PTs 1-3 so far, I feel as though the LR sections in particular have been substantially different from the questions I’ve been prepping with through the curriculum, JY’s videos, the LSAT Trainer, the Power score Bibles, and foolishly enough…. a Kaplan book or two (lol). So really my question is, from the experience of others in the community, if it makes sense to take the earliest PT’s, and if BR’ing and learning from the questions will actually be of use for my upcoming September administration? Or if I should limit my focus to the more recent exams… say around 20 or so, and to retake the PT’s in the 60’s and 70’s if I have the time.

A thank you in advance to any of those who take the time to respond, any advice is appreciated.

Proctors: Exemplary, except they started checking in all 205 people at 12:25, resulting in some serious delays. I was in a room with about 60 people and maybe 6 proctors. One proctor was running his hand down a railing next to me, but other than that things went well. Time was kept precisely, etc.

Facilities: Nice, modern lecture hall. Good bathrooms. Nice building.

What type of room: Toered lecture hall. Important note: Each row of seats has one continuous desk, and people were spaced out every other seat. There is a small, raised microphone implanted in the desk that was in my way and forced me to change my usual placement of my booklet and answer sheet. Just being aware of this beforehand is preparation enough.

Lefties: No idea.

Noise: pin-drop quiet except for occasional faint sounds. I think the room has sound-absorbing walls, and there's a buffer area between the room itself and the hallway outside that probably reduces outside noise.

Parking: there's parking and they said there were discounts for LSAT takers, but I just had my momz drive me so can't comment on parking location.

Time elapsed from arrival to test: got there at 11:30, we probably didn't start till 1:15.

Irregularities or mishaps: none, thank god, except for the brief railing incident mentioned above and the delay checking in. Lots of people brought cell phones for some reason.

Other comments: you're going to have to move your answer sheet further away from your test booklet than usual because of the desktop mics. This wasn't as big a deal as I thought it would be, just be prepared.

No libraries in LA are open Saturday or during the week at 8:30 (even university due to summer schedules), though a few coffee shops are. So far I've been going to a library at 9:30a. Any recommendations for where to PT at 8:30 in LA?

Looks like we definitely had a 101 question test today. I think we will be lucky to get a one for one exchange all the way down to 170.

Put me down for -11.
