Can someone explain to me why B is the right answer? I had chosen A
LSAT

Hi all!
Just a question on negation. So from what I understand, there are 2 ways we can deny the relationship (i.e A some /B and A and /B). But would it be ok to write /A and B ?
For example, if the record sells well, you will be famous.
Denying this relationship we get:
Would it be illegal to say "the record doesn't sell well and you will be famous" (/Sell Well and Famous) ?
Please let me know, thanks in advance !
Is there any way to distinguish an experimental section?
Anyone have any tips on how to do better on MSS questions, i do understand the question stem and the passage but, I always seem to choose the wrong answer choice. I also understand the question but, maybe what is the point to a most strongly supported question.
Hi! Can someone help me with this question? I understand the stimulus but I am super confused by the question stem 'which one of the following, if true, establishes that the doctor's second reason oes noot cancel out the first?'
Could someone also explain why A is correct?
Thanks so much!
Hi, I am taking the test the September test in about a month and Scoring in low 150 and high 140s. I do not know how to improve anymore. I have been studying for a little more than 4 months already. I am not practicing RC much because it is hard to improve since English is not my first language. I am getting confident at LG slowly. However, my LR is very bad. I get an average of 10 correct in the LR section. Any suggestions on how to improve any of these? I really want to improve my LR section.
Im taking the August LSAT 2022 on August 13. The best score Ive gotten so far is a 140. Ive been studying for over a year. Will the curve help much? I will have to apply to schools out of state with that score to see if they accept me. My GPA is good its a 3.8, but Im worried about my LSAT score being too low to get into FIU in Miami.
Hello 7Sage community,
I'm in the process of gearing up for Oct. LSAT and I wanted to bring to your attention June '22 LSAT LG specifically.
I'll get straight to the point: Did anyone find the LG section unusually hard?
I mean I went through the games in pt.1-92 three times before taking the test but I still answered barely 5 questions in total probably. There could be many reasons why I did so poorly on the section but one thing for sure that I felt while attempting the games was that on 3/4 games, I didn't know how to set up the game- They seemed
nothing like the ones I had tried except for the circular game which I ran out of time on.
If anyone did well on June LG can you share your tips?
It'll be much appreciated! Please help 🙏
Hi guys! What is the best way to approach RC? I tried the low resolution method which helped tremendously and I was able to raise my score from -12 to -3 to -5. However, I am aiming for 175 for October so I tried the Blueprint. It was helpful to learn about structure but now I find myself going back to the passage about 5-6 times because I get so focused on structure that I miss out on the content of the passage. I only went back to read referenced lines when I was using the low res method.
Is there a way to combine the two or approach the section another way to score -0 to -2 consistently? I think it can be done but only with the right approach. Thank you!
Please help, I do not get this question at all! #Help
I am really struggling to see how answer choice E resolves the paradox best and not D -- E seems to be irrelevant and D does a good job of explaining the different reactions of voters.>
are old reading comp passages as useful for studying? i feel like the older passages use less clear language than the ones from more recent years.
Hi all! I'm taking the August LSAT (in ten days rip) and am aiming to crack 172. I'm pretty consistently at -0 or -1 for LG and -1 or -2 for RC but my LR score is inconsistent, averaging around -4. I've gone through all the LR curriculum, which only improved my score by one question (LR diagnostic was -5). I have also checked for patterns with the analytics tools, but the questions I get wrong seem to have no discernible pattern. I don't think it's a focus issue because I have noticed that all the questions I end up missing are questions I marked down as being unsure. Has anyone else had this problem and gotten through it? I've cleared my next 10 days to dedicate to LSAT studying and am currently planning on doing 1 PT a day with blind review in addition to 1 extra timed RC section and 1 extra timed LG passage to keep sharp. Since my scores for RC and LG are pretty high, blind reviewing normally doesn't take very long, and I can study well for about 8 hours a day (returns are diminishing for me after that), so it leaves a couple hours a day for LR training. Thoughts on how I can best spend my time dedicated to improving LR?
For background, I got my diagnostic score from 161 (PT82 taken on 6/17/22: -5LR, -10LG, -2RC) to low 170s in about a month just from games training, so I'd like to think it's possible for me to get from and LR score of -4 to -2 in the next ten days. However, I definitely do recognize that consistent LG improvement is generally way easier than LR improvement, so feel free to let me know if you think it's unreasonable and or insane lmao
and finally good luck to everyone taking the August LSAT!!! one final push and we will (hopefully) never have to think about the lsat again(3(/p)
Hi All!
I'm currently registered to take the September LSAT. My goal score is a 160+ (160 minimum for me to do apps). I've been consistently scoring in the 154-157 range for the last month. It seems I've hit a plateau. I normally miss about 8 LR, 5 LG, & 10-15 RC. It's obvious reading comp. is my problem area but considering I take the test in only a month and I'm just a few points shy from my goal score, should I try to increase my RC score or focus on perfecting LG since that is the easiest section improve on.
Also, any other general study tips are greatly appreciated!
Hey everyone, is it required to take my LSAT writing before my actual LSAT or can it be done after on the same/next day?
Found it pretty difficult to understand and wrap my head around.
For those of you that keep an RC missed questions journal: Do you find it useful? For those of you that don't: Is there a reason you don't? I've studied RC the least of any section and I'm wondering whether or not I should journal missed questions like I do with LR.
Found it pretty difficult to understand and wrap my head around.
Why is A wrong
Could someone please help me with this question? I am confused why C is corrrect; although I agree that author does provide reasons for rejecting an alternative course of action, I don't think he/she arrives at their conclusion 'indirectly' as the stimulus says at the beginning that the proposal to increase fares by 40% 'must be implemented.' surely this suggests that conclusion of this stimulus is direct?
Can someone help with this?
I thought the missing link between the premise and the conclusion (the conclusion being that functioning of public agencies will improve) is that the stimulus assumes that functioning of public agenices will be improved if these capable experienced admin people returned. So I thought B was correct. Can someone please explain why D is correct?
Can anyone offer any tips to master LR? I read loophole and went through 7Sage CC. When I take full length timed practice sections I’m at -2 but when I do a full practice test I’m hitting -7 to -9 on both the scored and experimental sections which is where I was scoring before studying. Anyone else have this issue and have tips on how they improved?
Is it a good strategy to go for the add premises questions first? Seems like J.Y. has been doing it a fair bit especially in the recent tests.
Idk but when the clock is ticking I often freeze up on the questions with no direction despite being able to get them right untimed.
Any tips with processing LR passages quickly? It takes me at least double the amount of the "target time" for me to fully process even the easiest passages....
Does "tend to" mean a correlation? Like for example if X tends to Y. I thought "tends to" meant causation because I thought it was saying when you have X, you'll have Y which is causation.
