What is everyone doing to conquer NA? I have a really difficult time on these questions...I'm thinking maybe I need to go back to the curriculum, but even then I'm not sure where to start. Review Assumptions? SA? BOTH? maybe weaken?

Or if not the curriculum, what else is there to do to help me improve?

HELP!

I used to be great at LR getting anywhere from 3-4 questions wrong per section. Now I have actually been getting worse at it and improved drastically in logic games. Has this happened to anyone and is there any advice you can give on how to study and improve? I have been doing BR but sometimes it just ends up making me second guess my answers, is it sometimes ok to do BR by knowing which questions you go wrong but not the answers? Assumption questions are definitely the hardest questions for me.

I am able to psyche myself up for RC passages and LR stimuli and become generally interested in them. But, I'm having trouble actually having fun doing logic games. I have been drilling LG sections as well as foolproofing my problematic games but I tend to find the process really dull even if I am making progress. Has anyone gotten to the point where they enjoy games? Could you explain how you frame games in your mind to make them more fun?

How do you guys cope with this during prep and especially when you have a schedule and deadlines you highly prefer to abide by? :(

I am having trouble fully grasping conditional logic. I understand it to an extent but not as much as I think I should to truly master this test. Any tips?

*clears throat*

Since I love y'all, I'm going to start offering tutoring services. As some of you know, I scored a 169 on the June 2016 LSAT, and I'm gearing up to retake in September.

My "specialty" is working with accommodated test takers and/or test takers who aren't traditional learners. I, myself, have learning disabilities and physical disabilities for which I have been granted accommodations by LSAC for my administration. I have a good bit of insight for accommodated test takers as far as the process before and on test day and what to/not to expect.

I have studied for the LSAT for almost 2 years, and I really believe in the 7Sage curriculum, but some things just don't click or work for some of us in the ways they do for others. I understand that, and I will work with you to accommodate your learning style and share with you some things that worked for me on my administration.

I have over 5 years of tutoring experience in other areas of study including working in my university's writing center and teaching English as a second/foreign language.

If you would like to schedule a consultation, pm me here, and we can work something out. I am based in Boston, and I'm available to meet in person, over the phone, or via Skype/Facetime.

Pricing $20/hour; free 30 minute consultation.

Hello,

I am getting ready to send out a few emails to ask for LORS. I know a little unprofessional, but its summer and most of my professors are out of town. Here is my question, how do I explain to them the process? Can someone give me an example of what the email should consist of?

So, I have the LSAT beginners package. I have been studying since for 2 1/2 months now. I am at the invalid arguments section. I was initially planning on taking practice test on my own once I finished all the sections on here (to be extremely familiar with everything). However, I have been told by friends that they took 2-3 practice test a week. Is that the smart thing to do? I am taking my LSAT in September. Should I start putting more focus on the actual prep tests vs the lesson plans? Any advice is greatly appreciated!!

Hey guys, I have seen PTs 52-77 at least once (twice and thrice in most instances) and I am wondering if it would be better to use those to gear up for the Sept LSAT or if I should rely on older PTs that I haven't seen as much/not at all. Thanks!

Hey guys, third time taker here. I have seen basically every LSAT PT at least once (most of them at least twice). I hear that there are some previously undisclosed LSATs that I could get my hands on but I am pretty clueless on how to get them. Any advice?

Not many people realize that “Juicy” is actually about Blind Review. The most effective way to go from negative to positive since 1994.

Currently watching lesson but the videos aren't playing. I checked to see if it was my internet connection but that seems to be fine.

Help!

Like I imagine most of us, I never had to study in high school/undergrad. The LSAT is the first time I've had to seriously study. I find that I'm able to do about two, maybe three, hours a day before I just can't focus anymore. What tips can you offer to help me study more?

I posted this on another forum a few minutes ago, so I apologize if some people see this again:

I've been scoring 167-169 lately on tests in the 50s, with a few in the 40s, and one in the 60s (65). I just did PT 70 and got a 165, though, but I've been struggling to balance work and LSAT prep so that is probably a factor. However, I have heard anecdotally that the newer tests are/seem harder. I guess my question is: should I be concerned? I know I've only taken one in the 70s, so I'm definitely going to take more really soon. Does anyone have tips for adjusting to newer tests and for getting over hurdles?

I'm aiming for 170+ (no specific score in mind but I simply want to maximize my scoring) and will be writing in September. Is this realistic? Even more, if I want to get a low to mid-170 by the September exam, is this achievable?

I'll be done work mid-August so I'll be able to study full-time after. I want to know if I'm on the right track for where I want to be.

Edited: For some context, my BR is 175 or 176 most of the time.

Thanks for the info.

Who's going this Saturday??

I'm going and would love to meet up with some fellow 7Sagers!

Any 7Sager taking the September 2016 LSAT in London? I'll be flying to London just to take the LSAT (studying abroad in the fall) but I have little knowledge about the area. Would love some advice!

Hi team,

I have been studying with 7sage for a month now. Learning a lot of stuff, but just want to do a double check, what do you keep in your head when reading the passage?

For me, I feel like I have constantly do the following set of things:

-Untangle the passage into context, premise, conclusion (minor/major) by asking the WHY question.

-Writing the sentence into logic terms by constantly looking out for any logical indicators (all, never, only if...) and pause for 2 seconds and write it out (sometimes if the sentence is symbol I still try to do it because in the end the passage is an argument)

And yes, I do this for all the questions. Surly, I speculate when doing actual PT this may be done unconsciously, but for starters, what do you keep in your mind when reading for RC?

@twssmith, @"Accounts Playable" and anybody else care to share?

Much thanks,

Panda

I just have a quick question about the December LSAT. I was wondering if I take the December LSAT can I still apply for the Fall 2017 cycle or would it be to late?

Hi everyone! I just upgraded to the Ultimate+ (super excited) from the Starter Pack. I'm planning on taking the September LSAT. Do you have any tips on making the most out of the Ultimate+? Thanks in advance :D

Hey everybody - just joined 7sage a few weeks ago and have been absolutely loving the curriculum. I took the LSAT last January and prepared by using Mike Kim's LSAT Trainer (great book) and scored a 165 which I'm proud of, but want to really bust into a significantly higher score.

Anyways, I'm just wondering if there are people out there who have done so on the actual test by using 7sage. I know there are, and I thought there might be a thread dedicated to people celebrating their success - I just haven't been able to find it! If so, someone please kindly direct me to the right place. :) I'm just looking for some real-life motivation!

When you get accepted, are the schools going to straight up offer it on the letter or do you need to apply? Can you haggle?

So I'm working through the problem sets on the harder weakening questions. Through BR I can get 80-100% correct, while doing timed I am only able to get maybe 40-60%. Should this be a concern at this point in time? I have also been doing prep for about eight hours today, so that is one thing I can attribute to the scores. There was a point earlier today I was 25/25 on timed.

Note: My test date is December 3rd, 2016
