Hi everyone, I was just curious if anyone has taken the LSAT at the testing center in Cary, NC. NC ELITE CAREER SERVICE CENTER (10061)? If so could you tell me if the conditions were good? The setup, individual desks, good lighting, proctored well, and distraction free? Thank you

The example given on the cheat sheet states, No candy is bitter.

pick either idea and negate it right?

what about No candy? doesn't that mean candy is negated?

so instead of C arrow /B shouldn't it be /C arrow /B?

I would like to erase my old scores and re-enter new ones on the tests I am re-taking . I cannot find a way to do that.

I found out today that I was significantly less anxious during my LR sections because I decided beforehand that I would check the time after the 10th question, the 15th, and at 20. Obviously if I felt I spent a long time on a section I might check how much time has passed by, but I feel like constantly looking back and forth between my watch and the questions ruined my train of thought on many occasions. I had to turn my watch over so I wouldn't be tempted to keep looking.

For reading comp though, I'm not sure when to be checking my time. It would be ideal to only check after each passage, but I don't want to lose track of time after spending a good deal of time on a tough passage or question. I'd love to hear what top scorers have put into habit.

What do people consider the pros and cons of gap years? I've done some research on my own but was wondering what you sagers think, because I know we come from a variety of backgrounds.

Personally, I had always been anti-gap year because I've had over a year of internship experience with a law firm while in College. But now, being a senior, balancing LSAT studying with a full course load which includes my senior thesis is really piling on the stress. Plus December LSAT mixed with final exams sounds like a recipe for ultimate burnout.

Do people generally think gap years are the best move? On the one hand you can make $$ to put towards law school expenses, and can really focus on the LSAT. But on the flip side you start a year later and could lose some motivation.

All thoughts are appreciated!

Hey everyone, I have realized that they way I learn best for LG is to focus on one specific type at a time instead of going from sequencing to grouping to in out. Has anyone categorized the games from 1-35 in this way? I know the game type is listed in the answers but I was wondering if someone has already done it or not and was willing to share. Thanks in advance!

I just began the prep test intensive part of the curriculum and I'm finding that mental endurance seems to be a major issue for me during the 3rd and 4th sections (regardless of type of section). Is this something that just gets better with practice or are there things you recommend doing as well?

Sequence Games With A Twist

I Am Pretty Good At Making Inferences When I See Rules That I Am Accustomed To. However, Just About Every Game Introduces A New Concept That I Am Totally Oblivious To. Therefore, I Am Worried That When I Am Ready To Take The LSAT, Many Games Will Have Concepts I Have Never Seen Before.

Is It Safe To Say That Once I Make It Through All Of The Sequence Games With A Twist That I Have Seen Just About All Of The Tricks Of The Trade? This Way I Can Be Prepared?

I took the October test and didn't feel so hot, so I'll be retaking in December.

I've worked through all of the PT from 35-72, and I'm kind of stuck as to what now?

My plan is to do 2 timed and BR PT/week. (I feel like I overwhelmed myself a bit last time b/c I was doing about 4-5 PT a week, but what do you guys feel about this number?)

RC is my weakest section time wise, so I'll be doing 1 section every day timed.

LR is my weakest section quality wise so I'll be doing 1-2 sections. 1 timed, 1 un-timed (depending on how much time I have)

LG I'm okay on, so I'll so 3 sections timed/week.

I felt like I was under so much stress all the way up until the test, so the first thing I did was give myself a week off! And now that I'm refreshed, it's time to focus and go for it again!

So, for those retaking, what are you guys doing to prep?

I've taken about 9, and just recently started taking them every weekend (I work full time during the week), and I jumped a huge amount (14 points) but now I have kind of stopped making any better and i'm getting discouraged. I need about 10 more points to get where I want to be, but this weekend was the first time I have not raised my score (even if it was just a point or two) and I'm freaking out.

By today I finished 10 PTs. LSAT Analytics reads that my accuracy in Flaw is 40% ! I was planning to do section by section drilling but after seeing this number I thought I probably need to drill Flaw type questions from the Cambridge Bundle. What do you say?

I think that I am good at Flaw questions especially after finishing The Trainer, but still this what LSAT Analytics shows. The number is reflecting older PTs which were taken before reading The Trainer. My worst types are NA and Flaw.

Thank you very much

For those applying this cycle or are already in law school, what is your take on the personal statement length. The majority of the schools I'm applying to either doesn't list a specific length or says 2-4 pages max. With my current draft, I believe I could finish out at around 3 pages.

Hi friends, I'm having a hard time with conditional relationships chaining. I am not sure what course of action to take when there are two logical indicators, how can I be 100% certain that the one I chose isn't the redundant one? Also, I am not quite clear on how to link several concepts, I seem to freeze!

Does anyone know what PT this "never-before-disclosed" test is? I haven't done it yet, but afterwards I would like to go over the test explanations, but without knowing what PT # it is, that won't be possible. Thanks for any help!

Howdy y'all.

So I took the October LSAT last week and decided to take this week to go back to drill certain arguments while working on RC and LG as I usually do. However, when I took a timed arguments section today I got -11 (yikes), and after BR I didn't do significantly better (-9) as I usually BR around -4. I haven't taken more than 3 days off of LSAT since I first started studying back in May, because I'm afraid that if I take the recommended week off and then come back with a fresh mind, I'd be in a worse position.

I think I have become too attached to the LSAT and it's hard for me to leave it aside for a little while...help.

,

Are you getting a clean copy of the preptest to BR the entire preptest ? Or are you just doing the problems you thought you may have gotten wrong ?

So I cancelled my October score and I'm looking to kill it in December. That being said, I want my score to go up by at least 7 points in these two months and crack 170....

I know some people study 6 hours a day, and I was just wondering...what do you do for all that time? All I do right now is take a full practice test 3 times a week, and do a BR of the practice test the day after I take it. And I take one day off every week. Sometimes when I see I need help in an area, I review the lessons on it.

But I don't know what else I should be doing? I know I have to do much more Logic Games so I'll work on that, but I feel like I'm missing something important because I don't study 6 hours a day...!!!!

Hi Everyone!

I just started studying for a retake next year (ughhh...) and had a quick question regarding the differences between the trainer and 7Sage. I know that in the trainer, they begin the first real chapter by talking flaws. Whereas, with 7Sage, the first test based content is main conclusion. Basically, for those that have used both simultaneously, do you use the Trainer to support the 7Sage curriculum or vice versa? To elaborate, do you follow along with the 7Sage syllabus and then when you skip to that chapter in the Trainer? Or vice versa? Idk...just trying to make sure that this go is much more effective than the last.

Thanks!

.

My syllabus is no longer updating as I progress through the course: I am having to manually put the green check next to it. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Question: What is the difference between the two? What can you get out of the question bank that you cannot get out of the problem sets?

I know the question bank helps distinguish level of difficulty but doesn't the answer section of each problem set also lay it out?

Just trying to figure out the biggest difference between the two.

I have gone through several lessons tonight, however, when I check my syllabus, it does not show that I completed them. I clicked the next button at the end of each lesson until I was done with a section. So far, I can keep track of where I am but I am afraid once I get further, I will get confused as to what I have or haven't done.

Any reason this is not working? Thanks!

Hey everyone, I'm about to start taking the preptests and was wondering which books you guys bought to do able to do the preptests discussed here in 7sage?

Will the following three do?

10, Actual, Official, LSAT PrepTests

10 New Actual, Official LSAT PrepTests

The Next 10 Actual, Official LSAT PrepTests

Thank you!
