Hi. I need help with something. I know how embedded conditionals work. For example

A---> (B---->C) then it becomes A and B ----->C

But what happens if its (A--->B) unless C

Negating sufficient, does it become (B/----->A/)----->C. Or conversely, C/------>(A----->B)

And then does it become C/ and A---->B. Its a question from PT 74 S2 Q24. Its really tripping me up

Hi Everyone!

I was wondering any of you guys had opinions as to the difficulty of the new flex tests? It seems like on all previous (non flex tests) there is one harder LR and a less hard LR section (proof in that 7Sage seems to rank one section as 2/5 and the other as 3/5), do the flex tests seem to have a middling difficulty in the one LR section? I haven't taken any of the actual flex tests yet.

Any opinions would be appreciated! I have been using the flex converter on my PT's now and I'm wondering how accurate the scores are.

Hi everyone,

I am attempting to study through chunking. What I mean is, in order to get myself back in rhythm of studying I'm going to use the chunking method so I don't burn out, so I can understand what I am learning, and to properly execute what I learned through practicing.

My main concern currently is how should I chunk the material?

For LG I do pretty well, I'm somewhere between 3-4 questions wrong (this is was the case in FEB) I don't know where I stand currently until I do some practice LGs.

The biggest section I want to focus on is LR. So,what should I chunk? Should I do 3 30 min chunking sessions throughout the day and have different concepts to chunk such as MP/MC, STR, Weaken or do 1 30min chunk session with 2-3 concepts and then later on in the day go through some flashcards to reinforce what I learned and do a couple of practice problems?

I believe this could help a lot of people if they don't have time such as myself.

What are your thoughts?

How far in advance should/can I sign up for the LSAT? Also, how is the format right now? Is it still fully online and all four sections?

Im finding that Im having trouble passing quizzes (as in getting the results that i desire) at the end of a given section. Im really good at solving the questions correctly while practicing- as in pausing the video before JY explains it so that i can figure out the answer myself. But for some reason during the quiz section, Im not as good. To remedy this, I was wondering that as Ive completed each section, that I should use the practice exams to practice out those specific types of questions and to look at the video explanation for each of those questions. Would anyone suggest this? Has anyone tried this in the past? Please help!

Thanks.

Hi I took the April LSAT and got a 161. Much lower than my average Pt's. My last 5 PT average is 168.6 and my last 10 is a 166.8. If anybody wants free tutoring I'm offering it. This is would be my first time tutoring someone and also keep in mind I am still in the process of taking this exam. The reason I am doing this is because it would benefit me as well in explaining topics or AC's to someone. If interested lmk

Please also DM a short paragraph where you are in your study journey/ skills/ weaknesses/ how many PTs you have taken/ if you've finished the CC/ and anything else you'd think is important to state.

Hi everyone!

I've recently decided to take one more year off before I start law school so I have adequate time to prepare for the LSAT. I'm currently in Colombia working with a grant and I absolutely love being here. For my second gap year, I would love to be abroad somewhere else for about 6 months at least before I start law school, and I was wondering if anyone has any advice on how to begin looking for opportunities. I'm here with a grant that took a year to apply to and I don't really have the time to do that all over again, but I'm learning that it's not as difficult as I once thought to just go and work in another place.

Any advice you guys have on programs or how to look for jobs in a new country (digital or in person) or anything at all would be so appreciated.

Hope you are all having great days :)

I have a clear top choice for law school, and while I would love to apply Early Decision, I will likely need some scholarship money. Obviously, Early Decision reduces that chance of receiving money you would receive otherwise. But is it still standard for a law school to dish out money to an Early Decision applicant? My application for this particular school will likely benefit from an LSAT score at the median or 75th percentile but a GPA at the 25th percentile.

Thanks in advance.

Thoughts?

Does anyone know how to indent bullets and or numbered lists via keyboard shortcut on 7sage? When I try to indent/nest my points using the Tab key, the input focus just tabs over to the "Save" button field. Does anyone know how to get around this? If there are any resources listing keyboard shortcuts specifically for using keyboard shortcuts in the Lesson Notes sections of Unit Lessons and Explanations, please drop a link in the comments. Thanks y'all!

Hey gang,

I'm on the verge of taking my timed PTs. I figure I will take my first PT, see my weakness, drill with the question bank, and then resume PTs (if anyone else has any suggestions on how to do this, please feel free). My main question is this: How often should I take PTs? I have a full time job and little one so I don't exactly have the ability to PT between the hours of 9-4. Should I just PT on the weekend? Or should I aim to take a PT after dinner some nights in addition to the weekend? If the idea is to take the PTs with consistency and do it in the morning, I will only have openings on Saturday and Sunday mornings. Is this sufficient or should I try and get some PTs in before I go to work? I work from home so it's not that unrealistic to do, but this would mean me taking PTs starting at like 5 in the morning.

Thanks in advance!

Hello, I am currently doing untimed practice sections for LR and I am finishing sections in 75 minutes and getting around -4- to -7. Should I be reviewing the strategies more, drilling specific questions type or keep on practicing with individual sections until I get my time down? I have read the Loophole book and it definitely simplified LR for me.

I just stumbled on the news.

"Due to the COVID-19 emergency, LSAC has made the difficult decision to cancel the March LSAT. Candidates will be rescheduled for the next LSAT and be offered additional scheduling options should interactions continue to be limited. "

Highly doubt anyone would have this info but what is the average distribution of questions based on level of difficulty per section. For example (average 3 level 5s on LR, or 80% level 3 or below on LR).

After sitting for the October LSAT, I took the LSAT writing portion the following day. Upon re-reading it after its recent approval, I am worried that because I made some grammatical and phrasing mistakes, it will impact how schools view my application. I am registered for Nov. 25, but want to send my apps off as soon as possible. If I do retake, is it worth postponing my apps for roughly one week to have a better piece of writing sent to the schools? Does it replace the current one on file? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi there,

I wrote the August LSAT and scored a 149, so I have registered to take the November LSAT. I studied this summer with PowerScore books and Khan academy, but really enjoyed the 7Sage LR videos that are on YouTube- which made me decide to join 7Sage for access to the Logic Games videos in particular. I was PTing in the high 150s before I took the test, so getting a 149 was a bit of a shock.

My excuse/disclaimer is that I am currently on parental leave and home with a now 4-month old baby, so studying has been tricky. I'm excellent at managing my time during his naps and after both my kids are in bed, but I am well aware there is a lot of ground to cover in the 7sage curriculum and I won't have enough time.

My question is, in this situation- how would you suggest focussing my time? I struggle most with Logic Games, though I'm obviously not nailing LR or RC either.

I can commit at least 20 hours a week (approx. 3-4 hrs a day, 6 days), give or take.

Thanks for the advice!

Hey everyone. If you are taking the most recent PTs, like 91+ etc, should you review questions you got wrong on the experimental sections? Thanks!

Hello. This is my first post here.

I studied for three years a Dual Degree in Law and Political Science in my home country Spain; left unfinished because I moved to the USA. Then, once in the USA, I applied for a private school, undergrad (Green Card holder - I am, thus, not an "international student"). After one year and a half, my family could not handle the burden of increasing debt, so I transferred to a more affordable school option. I have two semesters (one year, obviously) left.

My question is: when applying to Law School, will LSAC include my grades from Spain in order to calculate the GPA? According to the LSAC: "... LSAC makes no attempt to assess the value of grades earned at different colleges (outside the US/Canada system)".(https://www.lsac.org/applying-law-school/jd-application-process/cas/requesting/transcript-summarization).

I know that LSAC requests all transcripts from undergraduate, so of course they will be getting the transcript from Spain; however. The question is not about the transcript, but rather about the grades, are these grades, earned abroad, counted or not?

The school I am at now does report earned Spanish credits, but does not include the grades to my GPA.

I honestly hope these Spanish grades do not count because I did better in the USA than in Spain...

Thank you.

Hey Guys,

I am an Indian International Student studying in the US. I have been preparing using the US LSAT exams, mostly because I last took the LSAT in the US and also because that is the only material I can find. I am back home in India for a break and registered to take the LSAT here. I am concerned that the material in the test might be different from what I have practiced. Can someone give me some insight into that?

Thanks!

Does anyone know if we can take the Flex with the color inverted on our laptops? This is where the background is black and the words are white.

Did any Flex takers try this?

Did 7sage somehow update or change their "Preptest Sections to show" part of their drilling mode? I'm so confused. For a long time the sections were divided into four drilling modes: "Core curriculum" and then three other sections of prep tests. Now it has four sections different from before: "Recommended for PTs", "Used in Core Curriculum", "Recommended for PTs", and "All Prep Tests (101-158)". I was keeping track of my progress and what I had gotten done the way it was previously set up. I was working my way through all of the core curriculum drills. Now, some of these drills are either all gone or have a bunch new added. This is kind of annoying? It's all differently organized now and I can no longer tell which levels of difficulty from which section (RC or LR) I've completed. Did I press something to make it appear this way or is this a new update that will permanently stay?

hii! does anyone know how many questions one needs to get right per section to get a 150? 160?

Hi guys, September test date approaching and getting extremely anxious. This is first time I'm taking LSAT, I need a 160. I've been PTing and my lowest 2 were 157 & 159, then mostly 160-161. For those that have taken it, have you found that PT genuinely reflect the real score? Or does your real score turn out higher or lower than what you were normally expecting?

Hey 7Sagers!

My name is Jake Baska and I'm one of the admissions consultants here at 7Sage. Just FYI that I'll be doing an AMA tomorrow on the Law School Admissions sub-Reddit over here: https://www.reddit.com/r/lawschooladmissions/new/. It'll be from 11AM - 1PM Eastern. Come on by, ask a few questions, maybe give my ridiculous gif-game a kind upvote, etc.
