I just signed up and purchased the Ultimate course package, and I was able to see the material. I logged out, and I was unable to log back in. I think I signed up with an incorrect/misspelled email address when I actually paid for the account. I had to create a trial account with my correct email so I can post my problem here. I've emailed but haven't had a response yet. I know I should be patient, but I'm kind of freaking out.

Has anyone had this problem?

Please help!! I'm currently working on the curriculum and I'm up to sequencing games with a twist. I've done two games and missed a few. I'm at the third game and I'm having trouble getting through it. I'm missing a few inferences even after watching the explanation. My question is should I continue without getting them right or should I pull out my trainer and logic games bibles and work on drills for inferences. I've extended my curriculum twice .. Please help.

Seems to me that these two websites are the most popular as far as law school research and rankings. I'm finding in several cases that they don't always jive with each other though.

I'm scoring 160s on my PTs, take LSAT in Dec, so I'm not looking at T14. So, it doesn't matter to me that Yale is US News #1 and ATL #6.... What does concern me is that USC (my top prospect) is US News #20 and does not even make the ATL Top 50... and Arizona State (2nd favorite, 2nd highest ranked on my app list) is US News #26 and ATL ~36ish.

Which is the most reliable? Is there a third reliable site I don't know of? How heavily should I concern myself with these rankings/school prestige?

As always, I thank you all in advance for your insights.

I'm having trouble understanding the logical difference between very similar sufficient assumption questions. The questions are from PT 36 SECTION 1 #18 and PT 63 SECTION 1 #10. I'm having trouble understanding why for PT 36 an answer choice (D) that satisfies the sufficient condition of the conclusion is correct but for PT 63 an answer choice (D) that satisfies the sufficient condition of the conclusion is incorrect. Thanks in advance if anyone can help!

I did a full timed test today and during my 15 min break I had nuts, banana and a granola bar. I found myself starving during the last portion of the test. For breakfast I had a big bowl of oatmeal.

Do you think it would be inappropriate if I brought a Chipotle burrito as my snack for the test? If I don't get guac or sour cream if could be considered good brain food?

If not Chipotle, Any suggestions for something more filling?

Sorry for the weird question.

Thanks!

I agree that I most certainly need to take a break from the LSAT, which I am. However, in the mean time I'm trying to work on logic or establishing validity. I've done numerous random worksheets online and in this course on validity and logic. 8/10, I'm getting the logic right as far as drawing valid conclusions and negating statements, drawing could be true and must be true inferences from the logic. However, although I am seemingly able to to identify the the valid and invalid argument forms when it's in its form (for example, A--->B, A--m--> B, etc.), I have a hard time consistently identifying them when I see them in REAL LR questions. Why is that? Almost every quiz I take on drawing valid conclusions, I pretty much nail it. But when it comes to the LR questions such as SA and MBT, or even parallel flaw/reasoning questions, I tend to get the answer wrong. Why is that? Is this normal?

Hello,

What logic form are these? ? And how would you translate this into logic as well as obtain its contrapositive?

Hey everyone!

I am trying to find the best way to study and I was wondering if it is best to study one section (LG, LR, RC) at a time or is it okay to study multiple sections at time?

We debated this question for a long time in Group BR last night. While almost everyone got the correct answer, we were strongly divided about the actual flaw in the stimulus. Some people held the explanation essentially that the argument failed to consider that it was a dichotomy or binary choice. Now, I know JY, Manhattan Forums, and Graeme Blake all state this as the purported flaw of the stimulus, but I find this explanation to be wanting.

Others, including myself, felt that the stimulus was guilty of circular reasoning. To be honest, to explain that an argument fails to consider the possibility of a binary choice seem like a huge assumption. It also seems downright arbitrary. If that were true, wouldn’t that call into question every time we find that an argument is guilty of a false dichotomy? Whereas Circular Reasoning makes sense to me because the conclusion is essentially a restatement of the premises. This explanation requires far less assumptions (especially the difficult-to-swallow “The two options given COULD be the ONLY options”) than those previously mentioned.

I think this is worthy of discussion and I invite mentors, Sages, tutors, and everyone else who wants to to weigh in on it.

I really can't wait to be done with this exam. I'm starting to get a headache every time I see a question. I feel like I've put a lot of time and energy into this exam but am not getting the results I want. I gave up on trying to score in the high 160s. Hell, I'll be happy with a solid 155, but it seems impossible to achieve, despite my efforts. I am not reconsidering going to law school at all, but I really wish I could just get past this rough patch in my life, known as the LSAT. I feel like I'm in a bind. On one hand, I can't just say F it because if my score is below average, I doubt if I can get into a decent school. On the other hand, I'm struggling to get into the 150s, Lord help me!

Just throwing this out there, has anyone/a sibling/a friend played a club sport while attending law school? The schools I'm eyeing these days have club hockey teams that practice 2h/wk and play 2 games/weekend (~8-10h/wk commitment). Wondering if anyone knows if this is feasible, or if I need a reality check. I'm definitely eligible by NCAA rules and regs, but I'm going to law school to learn and network, not to screw around and graduate with no employment. Thus, if it would make more sense to devote myself to a moot court or an academic club, then I will do so...but it would be really nice if I could do it all.

Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks all.

Can someone please explain why C is the correct answer and A is wrong.... And also maybe a guide how to approach a similar question.

In the LSAT Ultimate course package, I noticed that full explanations for LSAT exams before PT 36 are provided when watching individual explanations for problem sets. Is there a direct way I can access these explanations without having to first find an explanation for a problem set?

Hello all!

I am taking the LSAT in February and I am on a very tight budget but was wondering if the LSAT Starter is sufficient? Will it only be helpful for easy question sets or will I be able to utilize the skills in the LSAT Starter to sufficiently solve difficult problem sets as well? My concern is not being able to master difficult problems on the exam.

Hey Guys,

I was wondering if anyone knows what I can do regarding the December 5th LSAT. I was scheduled to write; however, I got into a terrible car accident 3 days ago. Does anyone know if LSAC is willing to reimburse me for the cost or at least move it to a later date without penalty?

Any feedback is helpful. Thank you for taking the time to respond.

Hello all!

I recently finished taking PT 58 and 59, and got the same exact score!(feeling slightly bummed) I would love to have a skype/google hangout group where we can discuss PT 58 and PT 59 in detail! If anyone is interested? Let me know :)

Hello,

Does anyone have a cleat sheet on which LR questions you need to identify conclusion/P. I know, or atleast I'm under the impression that, there are some questions that don't require this.

I learn best when teaching (like most people,) and have also spent enough time with the LSAT that I feel comfortable teaching others. I'm strongest in LR and LG, but open to working together on RC as well.

I have studied Manhattan LSAT (for LR,) LSAT Trainer, Powerscore (for LG,) Testmasters, and obviously 7sage so I am open to using a variety of methods for the different sections.

Available via skype (@lsathopeful) - if I'm online, I'm usually pretty much available.

Good luck with your studying!

So is order to avoid burnout and a brain drain, I'm curious to see what absorption time you guys give yourself after blind reviewing before starting a new pt session. Today for instance, I've BR and drilled all day since 9 AM, and I'm debating about a PT tonight at 9PM. I'm sure with less then 30 days left til DEC lot of cramming is being done around this time and subjectivity aside, some guidance from the vets would be much appreciated.

I was under the impression. When I upgraded to the Ultimate Plus package that I would be getting the question bank with video explanations.... And at least the correct answer for each question. Was anybody else under that impression? Is there a reason 7Sage hasn't posted the answers for all of those questions as well as video explanations?

How do I get a list of all video explanations (or at least the available ones) in the question bank? When I click on the explanation it merely says "discuss" I want a video explanation

Do anyone share the same feeling that PT in #60s are much harder than PT in #40s and #50s? I completed fewer questions when I took PT in #60s.

I took the Oct. 2015 LSAT and would love to see the review for it before I take the December LSAT. Does anyone know if 7Sage will be making that available anytime soon?

I erroneously chose the wrong answer because of the word "reject". I knew the argument was committing an absence of evidence argument/flaw. However, I felt "reject the possibility that" was too strong because I felt just because the author didn't mention it doesn't mean he rejected it. He may have simply not thought about it. It's not like someone brought up the idea and he rejected it.
