I will be visiting Bulgaria and plan to move there (Sofia) next year. Are there many people doing LSAT these days?

Anyone interested in meeting up to study for June 2015 near downtown area?

I know this is a wide range but due to the military I travel a lot in state.

Looking to go over a test every Sunday in the Madison area; if interested please leave me a message.

Hi guys, I found this online. I think it is helpful when sometimes there are LSAT vocab we don't understand

Its not all that painful... Life in law school gets easier ;)

Hello 7 sagers!

My name is Jason. I am looking for LSAT study buddy; I've been studied LSAT more than 8 months(but not consecutively). I ran through other LSAT company's books but improved very few points. (Thank god I found 7sage!!)

I'm prepared for Jun-2015, but I also consider Oct-2015 as well.

Full-disclosure: English is not my native language(which is Mandarin), and I have never been to the U.S.

I live in Taipei, Taiwan (GMT+8).

Anyone who wanna discuss LSAT (via skype) or mentally support each other is welcome.

Or if you live in Taiwan and are fighting for the LSAT, we can fight together.

P.S. If you are likely to be distracted in the U.S. while you study, I suggest you come to Taiwan for some advantages:

1. LSAT June-2015 in Taiwan(Asia-Pacific) is at the end of June, you get two more weeks to prepared.

2. You may not be bothered(or tempted) by your friends and therefore you can focus on your study.

3. Living cost in Taiwan is relatively low, and Taiwan is visa-waived for U.S. citizens.

(3 months for Taiwanese to the U.S., I guess it's same for U.S. citizens.)

Warning: Taiwan is a great place and you may be tempted by food, people and everything you want to explore. In that case, it may cost you an arm and a leg, and then you won't have time studying the LSAT.

Look forward to my LSAT partner, just PM me.

If you have an interest in being a part of this, please message me with your current score, your target score, what you have studied so far (i.e. only 7sage? or other programs as well?,) and when would work best for you (I am thinking to do this over Skype on the weekends.)

Good luck!

Hey, I'm looking for people to gather for mock testing on Saturday mornings at Gangnam from the end of April. We would gather at a study cafe such as 'Toz' around 8:30, start the exam with the 7sage proctor app at 9:00, and go through with all five sections. Looking for a group of four-ish as the rooms are usually booked in that scope. PM me or comment on this thread!

Hey, Anyone interested in studying in the Thornhill area? Aiming for June test.

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.

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.

For those of us that are taking the June test and are in Orange County, do you want to start meeting regularly to take timed tests in person at the library? I'm in south Orange County but typically study at UC Irvine with @connie1130. It's been really advantageous to have another person taking the test with you and timing it together so I wanted to know if people in the area wanted to do this on a larger scale.

This might be a weird question, but I was just wondering if anybody has taken the LSAT at the Texas A&M Commerce location. I am real big on environment so I was wondering if anybody could tell me if it is somewhat loud, if we are sitting in super close proximity with other people, if it was cold, etc. I would like to try to simulate my prep-test environments to what it will be like on the day of - I get distracted very easily with noise, closeness to people, and cold temperatures so I wanted to try to train myself to be ready. Sorry if this is weird!

No test center in ALL of South Bay ALL YEAR is forcing me to look for a new test center. CSU East Bay Hayward is an Oct center.

Which building/room is the test held and who proctors it there?

I once took a kaplan test at CSU with tiny desks so it concerns me.

Hey LSAT prepsters.... I just signed up for that study buddy thing here on 7Sage. If any of you are interested, please respond back or check out that new study buddy sign up and we'll get connected ASAP. I live in San Jose and plan on taking the October LSAT. Let's push each other to greatness and support each other when we are feeling doubtful. I'd love to meet once a week and we can also do phone/internet chats as well. It's all about helping each other stay on track with studying and to break apart question types to see the tentmaker's themes and tricks. We can definitely crack the code and get into top schools.

I am consistently scoring in the low 160s (160-163) and scoring in the mid 160s to low 170s (166-172) after BR. Do any of you have any suggestions on how to get out of a plateau. On BR, I immediately notice many careless mistakes, either due to misreading the questions or stimulus or time constraint, but I always seem to make comparable careless mistakes on the next PT I take. Does anyone else struggle with this issue? I am taking the October test and I have only completed PT 36-46 and June '07. I also have every single PT, including 1-35 and PT A,B and C. Would it be helpful for me to take every single one of them as a PT, or should I save some of them for drilling? I want to maximize my potential on the LSAT and I'm willing to take and thoroughly BR as many PTs as necessary.

Hello friends!

I'm planning to start studying for my LSATs around mid to end of June for the October lsat. Is anyone in the area that's down to be study buddies? Message me if so and let's get the motivation rolling! :)

Hi! I am scheduled to take the June test on Monday, though I don't think I will hit my goal score. I have been PTing 168-170 (but dipping as low as 166), and I really would like to get a 171-173. This means that I am going to give it a shot on Monday, but I am planning to take the test again in the fall or winter since I know I can still improve. I have only been studying for 3 weeks.

HOWEVER! My question is - if I purchased a course, would it be easily modified to take less time considering that I am already very familiar with the test? I lose most points in LG but can lose 2-3 in the other sections as well, but it seems like the bulk of the course is covering not-LG stuff which I don't necessarily want to spend weeks and weeks re-learning. Thanks for any advice that anyone can provide before I decide to purchase!

Hello 7sage warriors.

I've posted in a different discussion with regard to my recent troubles on putting the 7sage curriculum into practise however, I would like to hear some thoughts on whether or not some type of different strategy would help.

Basically, I am shooting for the Oct. LSAT date (and a 138 ->160*ish improvement) so I can hopefully enrol into 1L for next 2016. I have the rest of the summer left with no large distractions (taking 1 summer class twice a week); have put in already 1 month worth of the curriculum (33% of ult. complete) at roughly 5-8 hours a day. Long story short, I have ups and downs, correct answers and misses throughout the lessons, yet when it comes to the PS I find myself struggling to complete these and really gain any confidence in my skills and abilities.

As far as scheduling, as stated I go MON-SUN and study for as long as possible (or until I get to the point of negativity and frustration emerge) and I take a break, or take a day off, workout, etc. I have been writing detailed notes on many of the problem types, and have done most of the PS scheduled in the curriculum (the changeover kind of messed me up, but I've done most of them). I am also just starting the Logic games portion of the LSAT Trainer, and have been doing at least 1 lesson a day of that for the past 2 weeks.

Some of you have messaged me with support and advice, and I'd like to thank those who have taken the time. With that being said, I am starting to acknowledge that perhaps this will take me a little bit more time than others to fully grasp some of these strategies and problem types; should I continue on in the curriculum with these troubles in mind, finish the curriculum, and then go back for a round 2 so to speak? Should I schedule my day's in smaller blocks of studying? Have other's felt this sort of 'quick-sand' feeling, where, after a month - no concrete or tangible improvements have been acknowledged?

As I said, I've got work-ethic on my side and I'm not going to quit... but damn would I love to see some improvements or signs of skill building. Thanks,

Matthew

1. How far back is safe for me to take real LSATs? A little bit ago I read somewhere that anything before 40 is too different and can throw you off slightly. Spare me the preferences c-rap unless its insightful. Obviously there are obvious pros and cons to taking them all or just taking the last 30 for accuracy. I just want to know when the major changes in the test occurred. Thanks :)

2. People be crazy on here, studying for a year plus (aka I'm jealous of your planning and dedication and determination). I'll be putting in 4 months total, three months super serious like 50 hours a week minimum. I fully expect to get a 170+. I don't believe in PTing until I've finished all my coursework (Trainer, 2 Powerscores, and Cambridge drills 40 - 61, so I can't back this claim up whatsoever. After I finish I'll be doing at least 51-73/74 PTs, and probably 10 hours with a tutor. (Yes, I am totally fine with doing a PT a day). My point is this: Don't believe the gentle haters that so politely tell you can't or that you need more time. You got this, I got this. Watch a shia labeouf satire video and read a quote about persistence and necessary failure.

3. twoscoopsofpoop, seriously. I'm bearded balding overweight and I've accomplished all this at only 20. I'm totes down to study anything in the trainer now, or powerscores and PT/BR (not sure what BR means) starting Friday. Have a nice day, smiley face.

I was wondering what everyone's schedule looks like..is the amount of PT's a week a very subjective thing? So far I only have 3 full timed tests and one untimed test, a section and BR a day, this month, with LG drilling in between. Do you think I should squeeze in another timed PT in this month, or have 1-2 PTS a week for August and September? Not sure what everyone's take on the amount of PTS's to take is. My last few tests were 155, 158, and 161.

YAY to collapsing lessons! Foot in the door phenomenon, I hope it's a real thing...

Regarding the questions for there are not yet explanations for, in the new test sets, I know we have the option to click discuss, which opens up the option to start a blank new discussion on it... but if the video could open up to a separate page, so we can discuss the question below the video? In its current state, we have to open up a new discussion, then cite to the test/question # (and depending on how motivated we are, type out the question again) but it would be nice if we could post our questions/observations/thoughts right on the same page below the displayed question?

I don't know if this interferes with new LSAC licensing requirements.. but thought it was worth asking anyways?
