Using up material

I know the prep test are limited and to be used wisely (i.e. blind review and review all wrong answers), yet I am still scared of the fact that I may use my last 50 prep test wrongly, and will never be able to increase my score again. I know I should get over that fact, and just keep practicing questions, games, and passages, but I just want to confirm that I am using my material wisely. I go over wrong questions and question I am short of 100% certainty with. Can someone please get my fear of using material to go away, or tell me how to correctly use the rest of my practice tests?

Hi, I currently am prepping with fully 5-section timed in 161, and I am registering for the June LSAT in Asia. I am for a 167. In my timed section when I did them separately a in early May, I got high 160s low 170s consistently. I then stopped for 2 weeks for my finals and resumed again since late May after my exams. From then I started with full timed tests of late 50s-early 60s tests and got 161 in all those tests. I tried to drill into each sections but my scores do not seem to rise at all. LG used to be my best section where I got -0,-2 consistently in the 40s tests, but now I can't seem to get it off the -5,-4 level due to either I misread a rule or I make silly mistakes with inferences. RC is my worse section where I got -4 at my best if I do individual sections. LR is also erratic as I often got -2.-3 in May, and also in J07 test which I did as a full test rather than diagnosis, but now my best is usually -5. Do you have any suggestions on how to improve points in my case? Would it be wise for me to postpone the test till Sep if I don't see major improvement in the next week? (My test will be late June, ie 2 weeks from now)

Thank you in advance for your help. Hope you all did brilliantly for the June test!

Work Experience

Hey Everyone,

I just graduated from University (April 2014) and am planning to write the LSAT September 2014. However, I will not be entering law school until September 2015 (assuming I get accepted). So my question is, I would like to maximize my experience throughout my year off, and would like to hear some suggestions of viable experience options. I will certainly be looking for a full-time/part-time job in order to make some money before entering school for another 3 years, but is there a particular type of job I should look for that would aid me in not only getting accepted to law school, but also potentially aiding my career down the line. Also, is there any places I could volunteer to get some extra experience? I understand it is hard to get experience without having a law degree and what not, but I am looking for some minor things I could do, to give me that extra boost.

Thanks in advance.

I have a problem turning the necessary condition into words sometimes.

For example, the sufficient condition reads well:

Zombies attacking the city makes it sufficient for me to know the market will sink.

Z -> S

But for the necessary:

the market sinking is necessary for me to know that zombies attacked?

The market sinking is necessary for zombies to attack the city?

or maybe

It's necessary for the market to sink if zombies attack the city?

How do I make this into English correctly?

Hey, if anybody in NY (Brooklyn) wants a free copy of Mike Kim's LSAT trainer, the Logic Games Bible from powerscore and (I don't know why you would but...) marked and scored books of PTs 52-61, 29-31 and 61-71 you're welcome to come any of it. Just come pick it up anytime before the 17th of this month. PM me and we can figure it out.

EDIT - ALL GONE.

7Sage Website Messing Up?

Hey J.Y.,

As I am going through the videos, I hit "next". Every time I have been clicking "next", the next page says something along the lines of "You do not have access to this content, please upgrade". I can only rectify the situation by clicking back to the previous page and then hitting next again. Any chance of solving this technical problem? It's not the biggest issue in America by any means, just a pain.

Thanks!

Of course you are. You're about to take an important test. It's not the most important test though. That one you will be taking in September.

Just kidding. This is likely the last LSAT you'll ever take.

I'm only trying to remind you that for something this important, there are second chances. That's not true for a lot of other important things in life, so that's something to feel good about.

For most of you, you already know what score you'll get. Take your last three recent properly administered LSAT PrepTests (e.g., 69, 70, 71) and average your score. You'll get plus or minus 3 points of that average.

There is nothing separating you from that score except the mere passing of a few day's time.

You are as prepared as you can be. You have already seen everything those crafty LSAT writers will throw at you and you've amply demonstrated your ability to respond with craftiness of your own.

Monday will not be a new day and the June 2014 LSAT will not be a new LSAT. It will only be "LSAT PrepTest 72" which will be just like PT 71 and PT 70 and PT 69 and so on.

For Monday, remember only this: keep moving.

You will encounter a few insanely difficult curve breaker questions. Every LSAT has them. Every student who has ever taken the LSAT before you has encountered them. You will encounter them (again) on Monday. I am telling you this now, so you will be prepared. Skip those difficult questions. Maintain your rhythm.

Keep moving.

You got this.

Hey 7sagers. I am doing the in/out games and am trying to print off the pdfs for each practice question. For example, http://classic.7sage.com/lesson/inout-game-2-prompt-and-questions/

However, sometimes when I click the link to either download the pdf or to just get to the link above through the syllabus page I am instead directed to https://classic.7sage.com/enroll/?_s2member_seekingpage=1256

I am a member already so I shouldn't be having this issue. Any ideas?

Edit: Tried on other various links from the "syllabus" page and all links are doing it randomly. Sometimes I click and it will work, sometimes it will take me to the enrollment page.

Technical Question

Hello, I am planning to review the course, so I was wondering if there is a way to get rid of the green check in front of each lesson, which really gets in my way of doing this. Thanks!

Memorizing LSAC Info

On the MC Score Sheets, at the top, it requests the LSAC Account Number, the Social Insurance Number, the Center Number, and the Test Form Code. Are we required to memorize all this information?

Random PT score

Hi guys,

Sorry for the endless score-related posts I've been doing!

I have been doing a couple PTs a week lately, and I've seen a very gradual increase to about a 162 average. The other day I got a 167, but the next PT I took was back down to 160. The 167 was when I had the entire day dedicated to the test, and the 160 was after a long day at work. Do you think this is enough to account for the score discrepancy, or was the 167 more likely a fluke?

This question really bothers me. I do not understand it. PT 68-part 2, question 21. This is a disagree question about why law firm decided to settle a case instead of going to trial. Do we need to assume that jury/judge would not award more than the legal fees if the case went to trial? Why are they talking only about settlement and not judgement?

Confirm action

Are you sure?
