I can't wait to input my answers and get a detailed analysis of my performance. When will 7sage release the grader for PT 72?

Anyone from the area (UNT, TWU, etc.) want to get together?

Is it better to take the September LSAT if I want to enroll for the fall of 2015? Or would it matter if I change my test date to the December LSAT? Do schools give all of their scholarship money to their first applicants?

It can be in person or online..

Hello 7Sage!

I am a May 2023 University of Georgia School of Law graduate. I am offering myself as a resource for anyone interested. Feel free to shoot me a PM! 7Sage was a resource for me; I always wanted to give back.

I am currently studying for the February 2024 bar exam. I am clerking for the New Mexico Supreme Court and have another clerkship planned for the New Mexico Court of Appeals afterward. I am interested in Hispanic and Latino civil rights work and advocacy—specifically, issues affecting the Nuevomexicano community.

1L summer, I worked for a Federal District Court Judge and an Immigration Law Firm. In Fall 2L, I did a D.C. Semester in Practice working for the Department of Justice Civil Rights Division. During the 2L summer, I worked at the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund's (MALDEF) National Public Policy office in D.C. I did an immigration clinic during my 3L and got my clerkship offers in the spring of 3L.

I had a 154 LSAT, a 3.5 GPA, a small state school, four years of work experience, and URM status. I do not say this bragging, but I proffer that I graduated cum laude to show your stats do not always correlate to a predetermined success in law school. For any other stats, ask!

I look forward to helping anyone I can!

Best,

Jonah

I have only one potential topic for the personal statement which is mock trial in high school and why that made me want to pursue law

The video explanation was a bit murky here. I'm not so sure why the answer choice is C. I have a good theory on why people likely mistakenly pick C even though it is the right a/c. There are some issues I have with it.

1. its trying to say that if the number of science and engineering students in university programs has increased in the last 5 years then that is somehow proof or strengthening the idea of there being no shortage of scientist and engineers. This is a problematic shift, it requires us to assume they stay in that program, graduate it, AND work in that field. There is no evidence that these people have even graduated never mind ward off an IMMINENT and CATASTROPHIC shortage. Imminent means about to happen, how can people who entered university 3 years ago and are not even employed ward off and IMMINENT shortage? we don't even know when in the last 5 years this increase happened. We just know generally

2. It is also using a raw number to address a question about a total proportion. In otherwords, the correct answer choice here, C, is a percents and numbers FLAW! It would be like saying ok you have a shortage of 90% of workers. C is saying but you have a significant increase in the NUMBER of science grads, so what, you went from 10,000 to 50,000, that doesn't ward of the IMMINENT AND CATASTROPHIC shortage of 400,000 science grads needed. This matters because shortage means proportion it is a ratio not a raw number. It is the amount of jobs to job seeker ratio. You cannot solve this question with a total number.

3. I try to see how C could at least be right, but I have a real problem with it. I suspect most people don't recognize it as a ratio issue and just say yeah more students ----> more grads -----> -more job seekers ----->avert shortage and therefore Strengthen conclusion. There is a problem at literally everyone of these jumps but the worse one is you can have a significant increase of students, grads, job seekers, and still not avert an IMMINENT and catastrophic shortage. Maybe I am just not seeing where he is trying to strengthen correctly.

4. So which a/c would I have chosen? Probably D? Why, it is the only question who addresses the issue in the argument and thus has the POTENTIAL to strengthen. If certain science fields have an oversupply and others have a shortage. That indicates 2 thins. 1) For the oversupply field clearly there is no imminent and catastrophic shortage, supporting the conclusion. 2) For the shortage field there is also no imminent and catastrophic shortage, it is a shortage but its not described as imminent or catastrophic, so it indeed also supports the conclusion.

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!

As the June test is fast approaching, I have been focusing on what seems to be my weakest section which is reading comprehension. I miss at best 8 or 9 questions, and usually do not finish within the time restraints. I would like to reduce this number to about -5. This would help me boost my score by two or more points. Does anyone have a specific way that they attack the passages which has led them to see an increase to their score on this section? I employ certain techniques such as circling keywords and names as well as evidence/conclusions. I have also tried looking at the questions before reading the passages but it does not seem to help me improve. I am open to any suggestions anyone might have. Good luck with your studying!

Holidays are coming up, testing a while from now, was going to take a short break perhaps a few days during Christmas so was wondering what was the bare minimum to not get worse on the test?

Would you recommend just taking a few days completley off or doing just like one hour a day of games or something

Hi guys!

So I am a senior in college and will be signing up to take the June LSAT. I am currently scoring in the 165-166 range but am looking to score at least a 170 in June. I will be having a very busy senior spring and thought it wise to try and find people to study with in order to keep up the energy and motivation for the next coming months. Also, I think it's a great way to speed up the learning process by learning from each other. While I will not be able to meet (school in a relatively remote location), correspondence by email/Skype/morse code/Batman signals would all be ways to stay in touch (albeit some more ideal than others). Thanks and happy studying!

I will be taking the June 2020 LSAT and plan to take it once more either in August or October. I have paid for the test itself, but I'm wondering when would be the best time to purchase CAS. Additionally, should I purchase the packages that allow me to send the reports to schools now, or wait until I have taken the test (in case I don't get the score I want)? Or should those be done after I take the second test so that those scores will be sent? I'm new to this whole process, so I would love any advice on this! Thanks!

Hello!

Can anyone help explain this question from the grammar section on comparatives?

"At least 59 percent of households maintained a lower indoor temperature than they had been accustomed to maintain on very cold days"

Looking for study buddy, shooting for 170 range. Msg me if you are around too :)

any study schedule for 2 months. It’s been a little over a year since I last studied for the LSAT. Going to try and take it in February. TIA

How far above should your blind review score be above your target score before you move on to phase 3 and do 2+ PTS a week?

Blind reviewing about 169-173 right now and my goal score is 167-170.

Ive been studying for about 2 and a half months now... Am not taking the test till February. Should I just go slow and steady and continue to take about 1 PT a week?

Hi,

I’m seeking a tutor to help me prepare for the July exam. I’ve been studying on my own with 7Sage for awhile, but with the exam nearing I’m hoping that a tutor will (1) motivate me to commit more, regular time to studying until the big day and (2) help me understand some of the more difficult questions that are keeping me from getting the 170+ score that I’m aiming for consistently.

I think it’d be most helpful to have someone who scored in the mid-to-high 170s, since I’m occasionally scoring in that range. I’d prefer in person, if possible but would be happy to do this over phone/Skype also.

Please message me if you think you could help out! Thanks in advance.

Hey all,

I'm a 1st-year med student currently studying for the LSAT to potentially apply for an MD/JD program. I'm running through the studying materials here and enjoying them, but I'm also pretty tight on time for LSAT studying (June 2019). Does anyone have any high-yield recommendations that worked for them/ways to get through materials and to practice questions faster?

Thanks!

I’m going on a 4 hour plane ride and would rather not pay extra for wifi so I was wondering if anyone knew if or how I could download a test.

Does the AI drill builder feature draw from recent PT's (like the 5 most recent)? I want to make sure I can take them without using questions that I will use within my next few prep tests.

My BR score has remained in the mid 160s with 166 being the highest, 164 being the lowest over the past 4 PTs. There is no question type that I am particularly struggling with, most of my wrong answers I just did not fully understand what I was reading. As for my timed scores my first PT was a 148 and it gradually has gone up each test with the highest and most recent one a 160. What do other people recommend I do? My goal for BR is to get it around 172-175 and my timed to be high 160s latest by January, hopefully by November or October. Should I just take practice tests over and over until it goes up? Is there any specific strategy I am missing? Side note: If anyone is in my same position and has the same goals would you like to get in touch and chat / study occasionally in discord? I am enrolled in school so I am taking 1 PT a week atm and drilling other days.

Is anyone interested in checking out my personal statement and giving some critiques/advice? It is still in fairly roughish form, but I'm having internal conflict about what to change/improve/take out etc.

Does anyone relate or have a possible explanation on why my score has been consistently higher on lawhub PT than 7sage? Lawhub I score between 159-161 and on 7sage I get 154-155! What is going on, need advice Im starting to freak out, my exam is in a week help!
