Hi Everyone! I came across a some most drill in a LSAT text book which ended up having some trouble with. I thought I would post the question here and get some feedback.

Drill:

Most of the dishes at Oldies Diner are unhealthy and most are offered on special during luncthime. The dishes on special come with the customers choice of free fries or a free soda. All of the dishes offered on special are written up on the chalkboard.

From this information I was able to come up with teis inference:

Oldies most Special---> Chalkboard

The question states "True or False, most of the dishes on the chalkboard are on special".

The answer is true but I am unable to understand why. Thanks in advance! #help

Hey all, I remember someone asking a few weeks back about NYC test centers. I just checked LSAC and CUNY Law is now has open seats. I’m guessing some folks may have cancelled for November.

I’ve tested at CUNY before and it’s a great test center. Registration went smoothly, you have plenty of table space, and the restrooms are near the testing room.

I've been studying on my own with books but I really need to improve on LR to do well in December after bombing Sept. So I new to such terms as drilling and blind review.

I'm living in Jaffa - Tel Aviv right now and taking the test this Monday and hoping against hope that someone out here in the 7sage community is here as well and willing to study with me as I/we prepare this last week.

Good afternoon fellow 7Sagers,

I see a lot of study buddy partnerships and groups being formed in many areas, so I am starting one in the San Fernando Valley! I just recently lost my study buddy whose moving overseas, and it'd be great to study the LSAT together! I have a lot of material including the Powerscore books and all the printed practice materials from Blueprint. I am aiming for a 170+, with my current preptest scores ranging from high 150s to mid 160s. Let me know here if you're interested!

Best regards,

Isaac

Hey everyone, I just registered for the LSAC forum in LA this Saturday and was wondering if anyone has advice. I wasn't planning to go, but now I'm retaking the LSAT in November so I'll be applying later than expected. I have no idea what to expect - has anyone been to one? Does talking to the reps from schools actually make a difference? Should I bring copies of my resume? Any tips appreciated, and if you're in LA let me know if you're coming too!

Does anyone have a PDF of the little thought bubbles that are shown at the beginning of lessons sometimes? it would really help me to see big picture breakdown. If anyone has this or has made it, please let me know!

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!

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.

Prepping for the December test.

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

I am writing the exam in July and September. Based on my diagnostics, I am pretty average in all sections and LG is not as intuitive for me so I am currently foolproofing LG by type (as in drilling all games in PTs 1-9, 10-19..20-29 in order*). I am on week 2 of this studying regimen. I plan to transition to foolproofing PT section by PT section and then doing timed sections after registering and reinforcing inferences for each game type. I am currently doing 2 PTs worth every day but finding this to be difficult since I am averaging 5 Games past target time and/or not at 100% accuracy.

*- I am drilling like this:10 Seq, 5 In-Out, 8 Grouping etc. some of the miscellaneous games turned out to be the other general games in disguise that I previously foolproof but others are just super old LSAT games that may show up on recent LSATs in some form (give or take 5-7 games that I am not doing for every 9 games so far).

What I'm doing:

LG by Type X-X

Attempt Game

1st attempt Under Time and 100% accurate: Do game a month from now

If not, do it again that day, and then at the end of the week

2nd attempt Under Time and 100% Accurate same day: do game at the end of the week

2nd attempt NOT Under Time and/or 100% Accurate same day: watch JY's video, do that game same day, then repeat that game on the weekend

Weekend Day 1: 1st Attempt Under Time and 100% accurate: Review game 2 weeks later

Weekend Day 1: 1st Attempt NOT Under Time and 100% accurate: Watch video and do game again, and do it again next day of weekend

Weekend Day 2: 1st Attempt Under Time and 100% accurate: Review game 1 week later

Weekend Day 2: 1st Attempt NOT Under Time and 100% accurate: Do Game 2X the following week

So based on this information...

How many games per day would make my review optimal (currently doing about 8 right now, but slowing down)?

Any suggestions and/or tips for full-time studying in general?

I am taking the July exam but aiming to be most prepared for the September exam. I have the most potential to improve on LG games so I am foolproofing these until the July exam with maybe some LR and RC practice beforehand.

William Patterson University Test Center, Wayne New Jersey

The biggest surprise was the small size of the desktop. Otherwise a great facility.

Proctors: Two were very cordial and professional, stuck with the LSAC script which was fine. Monitored students but not distracting.

Facilities: College building, vending machines in the lobby

What kind of room: classroom

How many in the room: 25 students in a room with 35 desks

Desks: individual desks, tiny desk top, not enough room for booklet without hanging off the edge, challenge for RC and LG to see. LR just folded booklet so one page visible.

Left-handed accommodation: a few lefty desks

Noise levels: quiet

Parking: ample campus parking close by

Time elapsed from arrival to test: no wasted time, very prompt

Irregularities or mishaps: none

Other comments: none

Would you take the test here again? Yes

Date[s] of Exam[s]: September 9 2018

Hi,

Seems like I read if you go into public service law, you can get your tuition forgiven.

Does anyone know of any scholarships for public service or legal aid work?

Has anyone sent their applications over while the transcripts are still being sent over?

Hi everyone!

Has anyone applied to St. John's law school? If so, has anyone completed the video interview? What questions do they ask?

Thanks!

Hiyo! Looking for a study buddy in the NE Ohio area. I'll be taking in June. E-mail me at bluesmurf13@gmail.com if you're down. Thanks much!

Hey guys,

Hope you all did well on December LSAT. Is anyone thinking about applying to Fordham or has already applied? I heard mixed reviews about acceptances and was wondering if anyone has some insight.

Thanks!

I am (re)taking lsat this Saturday and I am starting to worry if pt 84 and 85 indicate an increase in difficulty in lsat. It seems like people have a consensus that 84 has a tough RC, and 85 has a super tricky LR, but neither of them has a generous curve. Both of my scores from these two tests are ~5 points below my pt average. Or....maybe I am just overthinking and panicking about this coming exam?

It seems I consistently make 1-3 LR confidence errors per test. If any of you have had this issue, how have you fixed it? Thanks for the help :)

Anyone have any tips on how to approach these? Are they essentially just MSS questions?

any suggestions appreciated!

Hi,

I heard if you want to re-apply the same school you should re-write your essays, but what about LOR?

Can we use the same letters?

Thank you in advance,

I've been trying to make a LG summary and was wondering if anyone has any notes that they'd like to exchange? Just a brief overview of what to keep in mind when encountering each type of game set!

Thanks so much and happy studying!!
