Hi Guys,

I have just heard from my Top Law school that my application is currently wait-listed. Does anyone know how to get off this and become an admitted candidate? I know re-doing the LSAT is a possibility, but with less than two months, it sounds like a rush reaction. Any suggestions would be awesome. :)

Thanks.

But things are just not working out with me and this test. I don't know what else to do. In considering just taking the June test and what ever score I get is what I get.

Hey everyone!

Anyone in LA preparing for the June LSAT (perhaps in the San Gabriel Valley/626 area)?

Open to meeting up for PT's, BR's, and to discuss Q/A's.

Thanks!

did you see great improvement if any between your diagnostic test and 2nd exam? and between your 2nd and 4th test?

please give me a brief insight on your journey through these prep tests and your performance. I know it's different for everyone but I'd like to get an idea of what's going on.

Hi everybody. I want to practice Reading Comprehension but I need passages to drill with and we need 6-8. Where are you all getting your problem sets from aside from 7sage? I strangely remember the answers so I can't recycle 7sage material unfortunately. Thanks!

I was not a very talented reader and have been struggling but I found correlation between my ability to understand the content of this book and my ability to read RC passage with accuracy.

It is called Cleopatra: A life by Stacy Schiff.

I did not major in History so understanding the flow of this book was a challenge but and also this book is written in a manner that required identifying tons of referential nouns and also drawing out inferences.

I recommend this book for those who did not major in English or History and are struggling with understanding complex passages. Just read during your break or before going to bed!

Is 7Sage no longer supported in Safari? I keep getting a 507/Bad Gateway message while all other websites work just fine.

One day I jotted down "How many do you NEED?" on the front of an envelope. I was asking myself how many LSAT's I really needed to understand the general structure of an LSAT. The reason I need to answer this is because I am debating two different ways of taking practice tests. The first way is the way I've heard JY advocate, which is , as I understand it, circle questions you don't feel 100% sure on and come back to them until you understand how they work (or something like that).. the blind review. I did this and realized there were many questions I THOUGHT i had gotten right and so hadn't circled but had gotten wrong. I only found out such a question was wrong once I had graded the test, and so already knew the answer and so lost the ability to find it myself...

Because of that problem, I decided to just blind review the whole thing, and the logic games section I did, well, over and over again on clean sheets. After I did that, I wanted to see how it would feel to take the LSAT again. I knew that it wouldn't give me an accurate score, but I felt like it would be a good exercise in what it would feel like to perform at a very high level, to maybe learn how quick you need to be in the actual scenario etc.

So yea, took LSAT, blind reviewed whole LSAT, then took LSAT again. That took me a solid week. So this story is a long-winded means for a question I have... Is it better for me to take the WHOLE test 3 times (The second being a blind review), or is it better to merely take the circled questions again and move on to the next test?

If it's better to take the test 3 times, then that makes me think that I might do better to closely study a small number of LSATs, instead of quickly studying a large number of LSATs.

My intuition says closer and slower is always better, but I just wanted to get some perspective....

Thanks for your ear and please respond!

I have been drilling games for months now, using the fool proof method. My score was beginning to increase (last pretest I got 14 correct in the games section) I just took pretest 61 and absolutely did horrible in the section. I froze, was unable to see inferences, and only got 9 questions right! Also, my RC score, usually 19, dropped to 14. The RC section seamed harder than usual. My LR sections greatly increased ( think this is because I took this test 6 months ago. Overall I got 155 with an aim of getting 160 this june! I need to improve my LG, I think thats the way to secure the 160. Any tips? Should I drill full sections? I think my weakness is when I do sections not individual games. Please help. I need to develop a study strategy for this last month that does not kill my mood. I usually tend to freak out and drill like crazy and end up burning out. I am so close to the 160...Is RC harder for the recent lsat's?

This has been my section distribution:

PT 55 PT 56 PT 61

RC 19 , 19, 16

LR 20,16, 22

LR 15, 15, 19

LG 9, 13, 9

152, 153, 155

Hello fellow 7sagers!

I would like to organize a group prep test. Basically, get together in a quite area and take the test as a group to simulate testing conditions.

If anybody is interested let me know ASAP so I can begin looking for a good place.

Thanks!

Hey guys/gals,

I'm a very serious undergrad preparing for the June 2014 lsat exam.

Let me know if anyone is in my local south florida area and wants to get together daily/ multiple times a week either in person or online (google hangout) to study by doing the same LSAT tests, problems, comparing our answers/logic, etc.

my info is cgrosinger@gmail.com

i am looking forward to getting started asap.

good luck studying!

Hey guys,

There used to be an add-on option where you could just buy the materials for each section (LG, LR, RC), but now I don't see it. Is it coming back or gone forever?

Is anyone else getting a "502 Bad Gateway" message when trying to access the site? I've gotten it a few times now, always been able to load it eventually but it can take awhile.

Hey everyone! I'm just wondering if there are some people from the PHX area that are taking the June LSAT that are willing to meet up for maybe 2-4 hrs weekly. It doesn't even have to be that long, but just a couple of people getting together to discuss tactics (lol, i feel weird saying this about a test) and their best practices. Let me know please. Thanks!

Hey guys, Alan and I are both in Vancouver so we're hosting a Meet & Greet here!

April 29th, Tuesday, 6:30pm - 9:30pm

Everyone's welcome!

RSVP here

P.S. The one in NYC was a lot of fun. Thanks again to the New Yorkers for coming out!

I'm averaging -15 on LR, -6 on RC and -4 of LG. Clearly LR is my biggest issue right now. Should I be drilling only LR sections so my LR score "catches up" to my other sections or should I just keep doing full tests?

I'm about 6 raw points away from my target score for June.

Life is stressful right now. I now I'm not ready for this life changing exam. I will continue this course and hope to get some tips and hints from you guys to help me for September

My lsat analytics graph won't show the blue color of the bars, so no mater how many pretest I do, the chart remains white and empty. I was wondering how to have to have it colored in.

Any help form anyone?

Thanks.

The deadline for the June 2014 LSAT is May 6th for the United States, Canada, and the Caribbean! Register soon if you're still intending on taking it for June! Just a happy reminder for my fellow 7sagers!

Hello fellow LSAT warriors!

I began to notice that I got really good at LR but my confidence was not reflecting during timed conditions. Today I took two LR sections from PT 47 using two different strategies. The first, I took my time with each question until I was very sure, rarely skipping! I only got 14 our of 26 correct!!!! I attempted 19 Questions.

In the second LR I tried to be very fast. I read the stimulus, and once I saw what I thought was the right answer I quickly moved on(this was very hard for me because there is always that voice in the back saying what if you mis read, this feels to easy). Second, If a question seemed to convoluted or complex, I skipped, even if it was a question in the first 10 Q. In this section I got 19 out of 26!!! I attempted 20 questions. I got lucky once!

In summary I think moving fast, in the sense that you quickly pick you answer, and if you hesitate ask your self if this is a question that you can understand in the next minute, if not pick you best answer and move, if yes, re read the stimulus briefly and make the best choice!

What do you all think? I think my mistake was doubting my self and that was causing valuable time spent in a questing that I was still going to get wrong!

I am paying a tutor for help in grouping games, can anyone help me out throughout Skype? I am really low in cash and will be taking a hard hit financially to pay for this two hour tutoring session($120). I need help with In/out games...

Hi,

My name is Michelle taking 2014 June test. I really want to achieve my goal score by June so that I can focus on the application procedure during Fall. I had to make a decision to take a leave from work in order to completely focus on studying – this shows how much I am serious and determined. I am looking for someone who can share this motivation and be a support each other. I’ve studied with few other people and found it very effective to analyze questions together and talk it out and explain to each other.

I met good studying buddies through 7 sage forum but they all live little far. So wanted to find someone close by so that we can meet up in person. I live close to Downtown LA so anyone around me to meet up and study together I am down any time. However, I found Skype or Phone are still very good communication tool. So anyone who has the same goal and motivation Please contact me at 213.700.3059 or michellemoon0708@gmail.com. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Michelle

Hello,

I have been studying off and on for the last year or so. From my initial diagnostic of 139 I scored a 155 on the december lsat. I began studying again after taking a three month break. Initial diagnostic this time is at 152. My goal is to get to a 160. However, recently, my energy levels and focus has begun to drop! I need help getting pumped up and maintaining my M-S 9-12 and 2:4 schedule. I cannot afford not to get a 160 or more. I quit my job to study all day!

I have taken the test in December and cancelled. I spent the last two months drilling and cementing all the skills I've learned before December (which was TRULY helpful. I don't think I really had a grasp of the concepts).

I am still bad at timing in logic games and I am looking to drill LG in the evenings. I'm at -1/-2 in RC and LR. Is it realistic to expect to improve to the 170+ range these next two months? I plan on taking 5 tests a week for the next 8 weeks, BR in the evenings and also drill. That prepares me to take about 40 tests. Or is this overkill?
