Just curious to know if anyone has ever been selected to participate in PBAP for the law school of their choice? Since their LSAT score was lower than the median score?

Hey Fellow 7-Sagers,
I'm a slow reader. I'm struggling with time-management on LR quiz practice questions. I'm unable to complete the quizzes within the allotted 15-minutes. I am,however, getting the questions I do answer correct. I've been reading magazines such as The Economist and The Atlantic, but I've yet to see any increases in my reading speed. When I purposely try to speed up, my accuracy suffers. Any tips on increasing reading speed while maintaining accuracy? I know this problem will be a factor on other sections, especially RC. Thank you.
Hey guys, when taking PT's, in order to simulate the conditions on the LSAT, I use the proctor and cut out each section from the 10 official LSAT books. I cut them so they're still attached, as if the real LSAT would be. They're like $20 on Amazon for 10 tests. Not a bad deal.
How do I know if I should solve for all game boards? Is there a way to distinguish the best approach when time is limited?
Anyone find much success limiting (at least at the outset) what you write down during a Logic Game to the second page? My last few games have really improved in time since employing this strategy. I find i write smaller and I refer back to the rules more because they are within my line of sight for almost all of the logic game. It turns out, at least for me, that the LSAC wasn't doing us a favor by changing from one page to 2 pages.
Maybe it is just me, but sometimes i just don't feel motivated to do LSAT. I guess LSAT has not grown into me well yet, what do you guys do to get motivated? Sometimes I noticed switching to logic games sorta "wakes" me up ( I know I am a wierdo but I love the logic games). Reading comp and logic reasoning my mind drifts off , can't focus sometimes. Any advice on keep drilling?

I am having problems understanding why that AP is the conclusion. Structurally, I understand that it is the conclusion (because of the conclusion indicator 'but'). However, the argument, IMO, is terrible. There is no support that the risk of a satellite colliding will increase in the near future. It says that ONCE it happens, then more collisions will occur. But, what if a collision never occurs in the first place?
Any suggestions for website that has online timer? Any suggestions for online proctor ? Any suggestions for live practice proctors in DC area?
I found this online thought it would be nice for test day lol.
Okay, so I noticed JY does not really do "mapping" when it comes to reading comp. I have taken a Kaplan course before and basically I had to make numerous notes on the side of each paragraph and think of the Topic/Scope/Purpose/Main Idea.
JY doesn't seem to have specific route to doing the reading comp ( like notes, or mapping or whatever). The Kaplan method slowed me down ! ( English is my 3rd language) haha so I am already slow enough. What do you guys do when it comes to reading comp? Do you take notes on side? Do you just underline? Do you just highlight? What sort of things do you always keep an eye out for?
Hey everyone,
I was just wondering how everyone has been doing on the question sets given after every lesson?
I seem to be hit and miss and sometimes i get 8 out of 10 and sometimes 4 out of 10. My blind review also is not helping that much either as it seems i just seem to go with the same answer as before. what can i do other than re-watch the lesson to bring my marks up to a consistent 8 or 9 out of 10?
Hi All! I have not applied yet to law school but when I do.. I have a question.
When you submit the school's application. Do you have to send your scores right then and there? For ex. I took the Feb test but will be retaking the test when I am ready to get a better score. Is it possible to send the scores together versus one first and then one when I retake?
Thanks in Advance!
I know there've been a few posts on this already but I just wanted to be absolutely clear...I haven't logged in for 2 weeks (taking a much needed lsat vacation) and the first thing I see when I come back is that lsac is taking allllll our pdfs back :( So just to be clear, 7sage will no longer offer ANY pdfs that have lsat material on it after April 21? Not even the practice tests? Will they still be sold on the official lsac website?
Man, what is going on at lsac and could they please get it together...
Hey 7Sagers,
Saw there was some confusion, so I just wanted to let you know that our videos are NOT leaving. Only licensed PDFs are being removed. More on it here:

I was just wondering, what does it look like to a Law school when you re-take the LSAT, but get a lower score the second time? I know all the law schools i'm going to apply to do NOT average your scores, but instead consider the highest score.
Hi,
I'm looking for a dedicated and regular study partner. I want to be able to discuss tricky lsat problems with the partner during the prep and gain from each other's insights. Someone who knows the material well enough to discuss problems and can articulate their reasoning and thought process would be a fit.
My lsat score is 165 but I was PTing much higher in 170s. My target is 174+. RC brings my score down (-6/-9) negating any gains with LG (-0/-1). I'm focusing my efforts on improving RC/LR. I'd be interested to meet weekly for a few hours to discuss challenging issues and prep done during the week.
If interested, let me know and we'll set something up.
Hello friends. A number of us ( h/t @emli1000 ) gather via Skype voice chat on Saturday's at 4pm PT/5pm MT/6pm CT/7pm ET for group Blind Review.
We are reviewing PT43 this Saturday. Group member @alexandergreene93 pointed out that the more folks we have on the call, the greater the diversity of analysis and input. With that in mind, I'd like to extend the invitation in advance to those who might be interested.
If you would just like to listen in for all or part of the call without taking an active role, that's fine too. This might be particularly useful for those who are not yet taking PT's but want to see (hear) the BR process modeled by several folks from different backgrounds. All ranges of goals welcome (whether your goal is 155 or 175, you will learn something). We've been getting180's on our Group BR consistently.
PM me for details or questions.
And everyone ... Enjoy your LSATurday!
For some reason, I can't load videos in Law School Prep and the "Next" buttons are not showing up on the lesson pages anymore. I bought access yesterday and completed some lessons normally, but today, it isn't working correctly. I've tried refreshing the page and logging out and logging back in again with no success. Also, when I am trying to view the lessons, the "Upgrade" button is appearing at the top of the page. I have already bought premium access, so I don't know why that would be there.
It looks like all explanation videos with LSAT questions will be removed, is there any way to download those videos?
Hey, Anyone interested in studying in the Thornhill area? Aiming for June test.
Now that we're a the 9 week mark, I'm really trying to hone my body to kill the June test. My diet is pretty much set but I'm trying to devise a workout schedule that requires the minimum amount of time to be healthy but maximizes my brain potential. I know for women HIIT intervals + strength training is supposed to be the magical solution for fat loss optimization but I am curious what other people's workout schedules look like and consist of. Please share your secrets :)
Hey guys! I'm kind of new to the 7sage community and I am hoping to be more social when I buy my ultimate course in a few weeks. I was just wondering how you guys recap what you've learned without repeating the same skill set questions. Are there any other exercises or books that you recommend to supplement this course?
Sorry if this has already been answered...but how do you change your avatar pic? It takes me to another website, "Gravatar" where I signed up for an account but to no avail...isn't working for me. Maybe I'm too tired and I need a cup of Dilon's coffee..
I signed up for the June LSAT at OSU's campus. Does anyone know what room(s) the exam will be held in? I'd like to scope it out because some of the buildings have notoriously tiny desks.
Hey guys, I was wondering when I take the LSAT in June, what form does the LSAT come in? Is it like a booklet? I want to know because as of now i'm taking the PT's with loose pages. Also, on my lsac.org account theres a place to print out a bubble sheet, do they not supply one?
