I'm looking to buy a 180 watch. If anybody is selling, please please let me know. You can e-mail me at richadhirani@hotmail.com or send me a message through 7sage. Thanks so much !

Originally, I was set to take the LSAT for September, but I am just not feeling too confident.

My scores have been ranging from mid/high 150s to low 160s. The blind-review method has improved my LR sections substantially, but I am getting slaughtered in the LG and RC sections (I usually do not finish either section with the time constraint). I feel that with more time and practice I can also improve my LG and RC, but I am concerned with rescheduling to December. I am worried I may panic during the actual test and may need a "fall-back" test date. I am also concerned about how much it will affect my likelihood of being accepted due to the "rolling applications" process.

What do you guys recommend?

Edit: Sorry guys, the deal is over.

I was searching for an online deal for paper and found a coupon code that will take an additional $20 off a $30 case of paper making it $10. (Yes, you read that right).

Add 2 to your cart:

Than apply coupon code 1mn6ss to take an additional $20 off each case.

If you get two cases, shipping is free. If you get 1 case, you will have to do in store pick up.

This is what my receipt looks like for 2 cases:

Subtotal: 59.98

Tax: 1.65

Delivery Fee: 0.00

Coupon: ($40.00)

Hello everyone!

I'm curious the order you watch the videos.

I prefer to watch all Reading comp, then all Logic Reasoning, and finally all logic game(also review LR)

I absorbed in the material better this way, or I might forget previous lessons(or cannot be skillful for some techniques, esp. LG)

Does anyone prefer to follow the "Study Schedule", watching RC, LR, LG, then finishing them all almost at the same time?

Besides, does anyone watch the Coursera "Think again: how to Reason and Argue"

Does it help LR?

Since I'm prepared for the Feb. 2015 LSAT, I have time to follow this course, but not sure if it is worth watching.

Thanks for sharing!

Hey guys,

I just took my first cold diagnostic test (June 2007) and I got a 152. I know that puts me at around ~52 percentile right now... My goal is a 170+. How many points do people generally jump before and after taking the 7Sage course? Of course I know this differs for everyone but my question is, how realistic is it to jump 20 points if I want to take the Feb 2015 exam?

This is my breakdown for the points I missed:

S1 LG -10

S2 LR -10

S3 LR -10

S4 RC -7

Any suggestions/tips are welcome!

Thanks,

Alice

Hey guys,

I am new to this discussion (and the LSATs). I just started studying on my own last week (read half of an old PowerScore Logic Games Bible) but I haven't taken a cold diagnostic test yet. I was planning to take a Test Masters prep course that'll start in late Sept but after reading some discussion blogs and comments, it seems like self-studying might be more effective and useful (with the right materials)? I've also read a chapter of Mike Kim's The LSAT Trainer.

Currently I have the following:

10 New Actual, Official LSAT PrepTests with Comparative Reading: (PrepTests 52-61)

The LSAT Trainer by Mike Kim

2006 or 2007 PowerScore Logic Games Bible

What else should I buy? Which materials should I start with? Would you guys recommend finishing the LSAT Trainer on my own first before taking a 7Sage course?

Any help or suggestions will be appreciated.

Thanks!

Alice

I signed up to re-take the LSAT in September and apply this year for Fall 2015 admittance. I'm almost done with the 7sage course, but I haven't started taking the practice tests yet. I really want to be positive that I do my absolute best, so I'm thinking of moving my LSAT date to December. However, last year ours was rescheduled due to ice/inclement weather, and we took the test two weeks later. I think the score release was at the same time as the other December test takers. Should I risk taking the December LSAT to enter law school in Fall 2015, even with the slight possibility of winter weather affecting the test date? I really want a good scholarship and to get into the school of my choice.

Hi guys,

I'm registering for the LSAT, and saw there's a CRS portion.

how important is it to register for CRS?

Thanks!!

I know the September one is going to be at 8h30am, but I have school, and I have the whole afternoon free. I know I should be consistent but will it have any negative impacts other than not being able to get the benefits of consistency? I will still write other PT in the morning on the weekends whenever I can.

Hi all,

I'm taking in September and as D-Day rapidly approches I am PTing pretty often. I take the tests under timed conditions, with the proctor and early in the morning (sine the Sep exam is at 8:30 am). I'm sitting happily on a 170 average but have had one spike score, a 176, and one drop score, a 164. What can these outlier scores be attributed to? How do you manage them mentally? Does anyone know if similar spikes and drops happen on test day.

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?

I plan on attending law school either in the Spring or Fall of 2015; should I visit law schools before or after taking the LSAT?

What are your thoughts on the order of the syllabus? Here is my thinking: For sure my biggest weakness is Logic Games. So, if i jumped out of order and covered the games earlier than listed on the syllabus, i could spend that much longer on the games concurrent to the other portions. If practice practice practice is the key to games, covering the basics early gives me that much more time to spend on them at lunch break, early in the morning, at any given possible moment. I know that there are key logic points to learn first but, i think i could probably get a benefit from starting earlier.

Suppose you chose A, then chose B during blind review and it turns out the answer choice was C. How do you guys approach this situation? These are the questions JY claims we don't understand and are a good candidate to skip. I'm curious to know folks personal approach (e.g., flash cards, discussion, tutor, etc.).

Hey guys. I need you advice. After doing many PT's I have realized that I just need to focus/master my LG section in order to break into the 170s since I have been doing consistently well in LR and RC. I have read several methods, which one has worked for you? Thanks so much!

How do you guys handle it? How many days do you take off? How strictly do you avoid the LSAT? I mean do you not look at any questions? Only do games? Review 5 questions a day? What strategies do folks find not only useful but effective?

I am thinking about taking a few days off starting today -- I will probably take a PT on Tuesday. That's 4 days off. It would be a better idea to take a few days off ahead of time (as in now) as opposed to closer to test date, right? I'll probably keep my head clear and stay away from the LSAT the day before the test though.

What do you guys think? Any tips, suggestions, strategies, etc. will be appreciated. Thanks :)

It's quite frustrating when this happens, especially when it's one of the " easier" logic games...

the first problem of the sequencing homework from the curriculum.

I've done it 4 times and I keep getting some inferences, paring down, and ultimately answers wrong.

What do you do when this happens? I'm so short on time with the test in the 27th, it's starting to loom sinisterly over me.

With the re-occurrence of rare/old game types such as the circular game from feb 2014 and pattern game from June 2014, should it be anticipated that this kind of trend will continue with the upcoming LSAT's? Also, how would we go about preparing for these games? Focus solely on the old games that shared this game type?

I don't know if anyone else feels the same way, but here's what I feel would make this presently perfect website even better.

For the videos for the prep test Review, I would like these two features added:

1) the "Next" button that we see on the lessons. For the LR section especially, since there are so many questions, it would be easier to navigate if there is the "Next" button right under the video instead of having to scroll down and manually look for the next question. I know it's really not crucial, but it's the small details that really bring about perfection.

2) the option to stay on full screen while the videos move from one to the next automatically (kinda like the playlist feature on Youtube). As for me, since I am a man of weak will, I easily get tempted to be distracted every time I exit from full screen and switch between videos. If I could stay full screen, I think it could help control my temptation.

Thank you 7Sage!

Hey All!

This may be a long shot, but if there is anyone in Kuala Lumpur studying for the LSAT and would like to join forces please let me know.

this is a minor question, but is the bubbling sheet during the exam a loose leaf piece of paper that is separate from the testing booklet or is it IN the testing booklet? i feel like i lose so much time by flipping to the back of the PT book to find the bubbling sheet, i just want to see if that will also be part of testing day

http://classic.7sage.com/lsat_explanations/lsat-65-section-4-question-23/

This question has had me stumped for like 3 days! I have done everything I can to wrap my head around it, but it just doesn't seem to want to click for me. So, is there anyone out there that may be able to help me understand why the correct answer is correct, I basically ruled all the answers out and guessed (E), but can see why its wrong after the fact. It is a most strongly supported question.

The question begins with background: Dogs are descendants of domesticated wolves.

Premise: It has recently been found that some dogs are much more closely related genetically to wolves than to most other breeds of dogs.

Conclusion: This shows that some dogs are descended from wolves that were domesticated much more recently than others.

(B) starts off telling us that we are talking about the dogs more closely related to wolves than to other dogs (so thats good), it finishes with the former breed (the ones we need) has more recent undomesticated ancestors than the latter breed has.

For simplicity, lets call the dogs that are from wolves domesticated more recently, Group A. The other dogs = Group B

I ruled (B) out right off the bat because of the UNDOMESTICATED. I thought that was to an inference that was to far out of scope. Next, the stem tells us that the dogs in group A come from wolves domesticated more recently than the wolves Group B is related to. But, based on this how can we infer which group has more recent undomesticated ancestors?

I don't know what I am overlooking for this not to make sense. Hopefully someone can clear this up for me. Thanks in advance!

Hey All!

This may be a long shot, but if there is anyone in Kuala Lumpur studying for the LSAT and would like to join forces please let me know.

Would taking a preptest every other day during the last 3 weeks be a bad move? What about more than every other day, like one on monday, one on tuesday, one on thursday, one on friday, one on sunday, ect?

What about a preptest EVERY day during the penultimate week?

Thank you!

In an ideal word, the best decision one can make regarding the LSAT is for them to just take the test when they are ready. I get that. Unfortunately, I'm not living in an ideal world and am working full time and studying 12-15 hours a week. While this is sustainable for the next month (and maybe until December) I have NO DESIRE to do it again, starting from scratch. I'm currently registered for the September LSAT and will likely score in the 166-168 range. Is there any admissions downside to powering through and taking the December LSAT as well if my score is lower than expected or I feel like I'm on a roll and can add some points with fine tuning? My current line of thinking is that it would be the most efficient and effective use of my time to build on the months of studying I have already done if I don't like my September score and try again for December. I know the advantages of waiting to take the test again in February or June next year include more time to study, but as I mentioned before, my current study regimen and professional workload are incompatible. Any thoughts or recommendations are welcome!
