Sometimes I eliminate the wrong answer choice for the wrong reasons (I look at the Manhatten Explanations online and sometimes it's different reasons than why I eliminated)

Is that okay as long as I'm getting to the answer?

This is for logical reasoning.

Do law schools accept less students if their ranking goes up because they want to show exclusivity?

I read that some of you were looking for schools that offered prep courses/PTs and today I received an email from Faulkner Law. Not sure if anyone would be interested but it's on 3/21/15 at 9:30 AM.

Hey 7Sagers,

Someone emailed in with a question I thought you could help out with! Here it is:

I recently started using 7Sage, and I am currently having difficulties with identifying embedded clauses, modifiers, details and predicates. I've gone over the lessons a few times and done the practice quiz. I am looking for some insight.

Hey 7Sagers, I think it would be great to get a bunch of Calgary LSAT geeks together to work towards the June 2015 exam. PM me if you'd like to set something up!

Hi everybody,

I recently found a few courses on Coursera that might be a good supplement to LSAT prep. If you're not familiar with it, Coursera offers online courses taught by university professors about a wide range of topics. The courses have video lectures and some accompanying assignments, and you can watch many of them for free.

I just found a course called "Think Again: How to Reason and Argue," which examines arguments and reasoning. I haven't taken any lessons yet, but the topics in the course description are very relevant to the LR section. There are also various classes on logic, which may help with the LR and LG sections.

Fun tidbit that I found online!!! http://www.dailycal.org/2012/08/23/study-shows-studying-for-the-lsat-can-change-brain/

Did you take an Adderall the day of the exam? If so, did you take your regular dose, less, or more of? I am most interested in those who the title applies to that didn't take it the day of the exam, and how it affected you, either beneficially or detrimentally.

I am taking the test in June and as you might of assumed have ADD. I have heard a variety of answers from friends/colleagues and was curious what other answer samples might conclude.

Also I was going to request accommodations for my LSAT, but time turned fragile and I ended up not going through with all of it due to the opportunity costs associated with getting re-diagnosed for LSAC standards. A part of me wishes I would of done everything required to get the accommodations, because hey more time is MORE TIME. Please share any experiences or input you have on the issue.

Good Luck in June!

I have the Premium package, yet am unable to view my comment and others' responses on a question in an available problem set. Is there any way I can bypass this?

Hi, y'all. I'm looking to connect with folks who are going pedal-to-the-metal prepping for the June LSAT. I know everyone here is working hard—probably putting heart and soul into every step—but I think the hardcore folks probably self-identify as such. I'm not talking about burnout-seekers (too old and too long out of college to tease that dragon). I'm talking about folks who are keeping strict study schedules, supplementing lessons and drills above and beyond schedule, and taking at least weekly practice tests (and later on, 3-4 a week+). People who (like myself) are going whole-hog this season. No matter what your ideal score range may be, how are you harnessing the ever-mounting adrenalin to build momentum towards your goal?

You know who you are. You know what you want. So, what are you doing?

Here's to lively discussion, friendly competition, and mutually reinforcing one another's very best efforts.

I know some people have stated that they PT in a library or in a coffee shop like Starbucks. I was wondering how many people here ACTUALLY do it. Is it only a few people. If you've taken more than one LSAT, and you took one while studying in silence and one after studying with ambient noise, did it help? I'm just curious. I finished the curriculum the second time around and going over all the old PTs I already did before jumping into new PTs. Soon I should be PT on fresh tests and was wondering what you guys might think/have done.

When you blind review are you supposed to get in the 99th percentile since there is no timing

I know that study for the LSAT can be a struggle. It can take everything you have and even at times you may feel like you no longer want to do this. Because everything in your personal life + studying is starting to add up and it'll make a lot of things change. Some may need encouragement to continue grinding for whatever their end goal may be. Maybe a 170+ but in the process you may lose sight because you aren't reaching your goal, or nowhere near that score. And that is okay because you can't blame anyone but yourself when things don't go right. It's important to have that type of mentality especially during this time of your life. So I speak for myself and everyone else who sometimes get carried away by a score or for how certain situations play out in one's life. If anyone is going through a situation where they want to give up, I want you take some time out and thoroughly think through it.

I also want to recommend for everyone to read "Gifted Hands: The Ben Carson Story" by Ben Carson it will really change your perspective in life.

Hi,

I'm new to 7sage. I've been watching the games on YouTube and noticed 7sage has an app so I had to download it immediately! lol

Anyone want to study? I'm almost there with my prep

Thought you might get a kick out of this.

Hi folks,

for all of you studying for the LSAT.. I know it can be a stressful process... so here's something to cheer you up and lighten your mood... and trust me, you'll be better able to laugh at it now... and not when you're facing the actual bar exam ;) - enjoy:

I'm 30% through the 'Ultimate' syllabus, and having trouble soaking in a lot of LR strategy. When I look at mixed questions for the section, I still feel like I'm unable to laser in on the strategy for that specific question type, etc.

One section that really threw me was the introduction to logic. After a second run-through it went in perfectly. I'm thinking I'll have to go through the entire theory course again to make sure all of 7Sage soaks in.

Has anyone gone through it twice? If so, did you find it helpful on the second pass?

Hey all,

so i am new here at 7sage (Ultimate) and just finished PTJ07 scoring a 157. my original intention was to prepare for the better part of a year and take the real deal in Feb '16. at this point i would just like some feedback on what significance that sort of score (if any) should have on my preliminary timeframe. i hope to get to 170 (at least 165+) and the sooner i take the real LSAT the better, but i'm not at all willing to compromise my preparedness in order to save time. is it reasonable to think that i can bump up that score 10+ points? before PTJ07 i essentially did no LSAT prep outside of reading about the test.

i'd appreciate any and all feedback!

Hello! I'm studying for a June retake. Score was in the low 170s--aiming for a mid-to-high 170s (I know...it's ambitious...) But I could use a study partner. I'd be down to study if you're in the Koreatown area in LA!

Hey all! I'm currently living in Bologna, Italy. If there is anyone here studying for the June 2015 exam and looking for a study partner, please let me know.

Cheers!

Hello,

I can't seem to access the test and videos for PTJ07. It isn't showing up on my syllabus and I currently have the 'Ultimate' package.

Hi 7Sagers,

I just joined 7Sage about a week ago and the reason why I joined is because of the comments that I read about the course. My last PT was 135 :-( and my goal is to score between 160-165 on the June/October LSAT. I just don't know where to start. Should I finish the whole course first and then start taking practice tests? I signed up for the LSAT Starter. Should I upgrade to the LSAT Premium or LSAT Ultimate? When do I start using the Cambridge Drilling Packets? I will be studying an average of 20 hours per week and English is not my first language. Help.

I am wondering anyone has any advice on building mental endurance? I tend to get tired around 90 minutes or so, RC section tend to nosedive if I am already tired...

I already workout and read quite a bit so I am hoping for advice on other areas that may help.
