Hi All,

I wondered if anyone knew where to find the starred individual LG's to review later. I starred some hard ones to review later on but am unable to find them individually. Does anyone know how to find them again? I'm sure it's simple enough but here I am lol. Thanks!

Hi all -- I'm confused about how to access the writing section for the June 2022 LSAT. My test is tomorrow morning, June 11. Am I supposed to click "start test"? Also, am I allowed to take the writing section after the actual LSAT? Thank you!

P.S. Good luck to all test takers!!

Taking the June LSAT this Saturday. I have been taking as many tests as I can recently, taking PT 92 today and getting my highest score. I have 2 more full days before test day. What do y'all suggest one does in these upcoming days? I was planning on taking another PT tomorrow and then taking a break the day before the test. I am starting to think I should not take another PT and keep my confidence up with the one I took today. I do know that there is room for improvement for my PT scores, so should I try to maximize that before test day, or is it too close to make any progress?

Also, what kind of advice would you give for test day? My test is at 1pm, so what would you recommend I do that morning?

Hey all! Just need some advice on which section of the CC I should dive into first. I know typically it's recommended to follow the outlined structure: LR -> LG -> RC. I worked on LR predominantly on another curriculum before switching to 7Sage and it's one of my better sections. I haven't touched LG, at all, and know it's my weakest.

That being said, do you recommend I just tackle LG first?

LSAC just sent out an email mentioning that we should not take the test in a room with floor to ceiling windows, but this wasn't explicitly discussed in the Candidate Agreement. The candidate agreement says no rooms with glass walls (like cubicles), so this entire time I've been planning to take my test in my kitchen where I have a dining table. However, the kitchen leads to the backyard so there is a sliding door that is almost floor to ceiling...what should I do?

I think I have learned the key to LR.

Overall you can classify most LR questions by the type of answer they are looking for.

  • Powerful: AKA answer choices that are broad and strong
  • Provabe: AKA answer choices that are not broad and are specific
  • Powerful Question Types

    Strengthen

    Weaken

    Sufficient Assumption

    Paradox

    Provable

    Necessary Assumption

    Flaw

    Main Conclusion

    If you focus in on these chareteristics of correct answer choices you will be able to rule out most of the time 3/5 answer choices. Leaving you with a 50 percent chance to get the answer correct. Once you've done this you look at the two answer choices and look to see whats wrong with one rather than whats correct about one.

    Hey guys, so I am testing my laptop for this weekend and I've allowed camera and microphone use, but everytime I test it, it says that camera width and height are not found. Can anyone please help me?

    Has anyone used a mobile hotspot on an official exam recently? I used a hotspot when I took the exam in June 2021 and I had no issues. I don't think I let my proctor know that but my phone was in sight of the camera the whole time. I'm retaking the exam this Saturday and I just read over the rules and it says that we can't use a hotspot or VPN...I don't know if this is a new rule but I'm not really sure what to do because my WiFi does not pass the internet speed test but my hotspot does. Anyone have any insight?

    Hi everyone,

    I'm an international candidate, and the only reasonable time I could sign up for was 5:30am local time.

    Early morning hours between 2am and 5:30am were the only options I had left right after receiving the sign-in email from LSAC at around noon on May 26 eastern time (I'm a first-time test taker). I sent an email to LSAC to ask if I could schedule for an evening time, but I'm not confident that they will let me reschedule. Candidates in my country have been complaining about this time zone issue since 2020, and LSAC still isn't providing more time slot options for international candidates.

    Are there other international candidates who had to take the test very early in the morning, and do you have any tips? Right now I'm performing at about 15 points below my practice test scores because I can't even finish the questions on time. (I normally finish all of the questions and have time left to review.)

    I've been practicing waking up at 3:30am, have 2 hours to wake up my brain, and take a practice test at 5:30am, but it hasn't been very successful. So I would appreciate any and all tips you could share! Thanks in advance.

    I have been scoring almost perfect on LR & RC within the time constraints (-1 or -0 on both).

    I can only get -6 when taking LG with the time constraints BUT when I do LG problem sets with no time constraints I get -0. Does anyone have advice for doing LG faster without messing up?

    When does ProctorU open up time slots for the September and October LSAT? Should I make a ProctorU account prior to receiving an email from LSAC? Additionally, does anyone know the earliest and latest times in a day to take the exam?

    [I am posting on behalf of a 7Sage user. Please feel free to leave your comments below. Thank you so much for your help!]

    Hello! I started studying for the LSAT March of 2021 and took it twice in August 2021 and November 2021 (had not used 7Sage to prepare). Both times, I experienced something strange with the LR section: it was as if I had never seen the section. I wasn't able to process the words or make sense of the questions or able to see the patterns associated with the question types (as I usually am during studying and practice tests). The first time around, I thought this may be happening because I am not as prepared as I should be but the second time, I felt prepared. I have been following the Core Curriculum and it has helped me tremendously. My PTs after starting the CC have been 166 and 163 respectively (as opposed to my 158 official score both times). I will be taking the test September 2022 so I have a solid 3 months to reach my goal of 172+ but I am worried about experiencing what I did for the LR section my previous two administrations. What do you think this could be and how can I ensure that this doesn't happen again during my September test? Looking forward to your response, thank you!

    I was doing some LR drills, and Q26 on PT 6 S3 felt like I just needed prior knowledge to answer the question successfully. I feel like this is what catches me up on a lot of questions that are rated as max difficulty. I really struggle with the stimulus content and question wording and it just feels impossible to answer. Has anyone done this question specifically and could give me a breakdown of how they came to the right answer? Or just general tips for handling an extra wordy stimulus?

    I took the LSAT in 2018 and scored a 167. I plan to take a diagnostic test tomorrow to see where I stand now. If I score 160+ in my diagnostic test, would 2.5 months be enough time to study to take LSAT in August and complete the 7sage curriculum? According to the study schedule generator, I would have to study 20-25 hours per week starting today to ensure I take at least 6 PTs by the August 2022 LSAT.

    Thank you!
