What are the three ways to weaken an argument again? I only remember alternative hypothesis. I swear there was a lesson that taught this but I don't remember which one.

Basically what title says! I know I most likely want to register for the August test and since registration just opened a day ago I was wondering what the pros/cons are to registering early. I know when it opens up a couple weeks before test day really matters for picking time slots just didn't know the difference between if I register for the test now vs. in July or something lol. Thank you!

Can someone explain to me the difference between those two flaw types?

Hi everyone! I took the LSAT in April and am now studying again for the June. I only need a few more points to get up to my goal score of 168, but I have been taking some sections in the PT80s and am feeling like I am getting worse. LR used to be okay for me (average -5ish) and with these particular PTs the questions I have missed have been much higher.

I'm not sure if this is some weird dip in my studying, or if this is just a result of the 80s LR being really weird. I would really appreciate some insight if anyone else is seeing this or if it is just a me problem. And if it is just a me problem, how others have overcome a dip in between tests. Thanks!

Hey everyone! I'd really appreciate some advice on this issue as I am scheduled to take the test in a few weeks and am really struggling with conditional mapping/translations. I have already read the conditional logic section of Loophole and done the majority of the 7sage lessons on conditional logic. I definitely understand the basics, but when it comes to mapping actual long and complicated sentences and linking conditions I am struggling. I either completely mess them up or when I do get them right I take way too long. In a perfect world, I'd have time to go through and re-watch every single 7sage video and do every single SA, NA, and parallel reasoning/flaw question there is, but I need to be practical since I only have a few weeks. As of right now I am just drilling and drilling and watching explanation videos when I get something incorrect in the hopes that it will click in time. If anyone has any recommendations or advice PLEASE let me know, I am desperate lol. Thanks!!

I am registered to take the June 7 LSAT test, my first ever attempt. I have finished almost all of the circulum and took my first PT since by diagnostic which was 138 :(, I got the same mark on the PT but with blind review I got up to 157. Happy with the BR progess but does anyone have any tips on how I can translate this progress? I am aiming for eventually a 165 but also planning to take it again in August without the LG. Any tips or reccomendations are appreicated.

I recently took a cold diagnostic (I took the LSAT cold in Summar of '23... big mistake) without the LG section using the new 4-section format for this August. Scored a 171 timed, 172 BR. Is it worth it to go through the syllabus, or should I just spend the whole summer grinding out PT's and BRing? I'm thinking my time might be better spent that way, since the syllabus will likely cover a lot of stuff I've already got a grasp on.

Hello all,

I am wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction to how to sign up for the August LSAT test. I am also wondering how/when to apply for extra time on the August LSAT test.

Best,

Drew

This passage talks about the baroque period and im unsure why the answer is guiding instead of compelling. There was no explanation available. It asks you to identify the meaning of the word directive. I feel like the passage implies that it is more compelling and forceful than the word guiding.

I'm just wondering about which prep tests are used to create drills for logical reasoning. Are they taken from a couple of tests or are they scattered from all the prep tests available?

I can't figure out why the answer is C! No matter how much I look at it, I gravitate towards D.

Hi everyone! I am taking the June 2024 LSAT and am registered to take it in person at a testing center. The registration for choosing the day you take the test opens tomorrow for the Wednesday and Thursday test days and the day after for Friday and Saturday test days. Is there an advantage to choosing a certain day of the week? I had been planning on taking it on Saturday, June 8th because that works best with my schedule but wasn't sure if there is an advantage to taking it on one of the earlier days instead. Thanks in advance for any advice and insight on this!

Hello all,

I want to type out notes for questions while taking the logical reasoning section. However, I do not see an option to type out notes on 7Sage when taking a test test. My questions:

Thank you all!

Sincerely,

Stressed New LSAT Studier

These logical reasoning questions make me feel so stupid! It makes so much sense afterwards but not in the moment. I don't know how i'm going to get a strategy down that will make me see this in the moment and before I make the mistake. I need a foolproof strategy for this! Anyone got any tips or methods they've found helpful? Please message me! I'd love to bounce ideas off of one another for LR and become study buddies.

i'm curious if you could still actually study and practice logic games even after they remove this section from the test. i find learning and practicing these problems are very beneficial in developing analytical skills for law and other aspects of life. i'm not very good at these under time pressure but appreciate the challenge and feel good about showing improvement in my practice scores.

Hi everyone. I have been studying for the lsat for more than 2 1/2 years now. My highest score was a 175 and I am usually scoring between 165-169. I took the April Lsat and scored a 159 :(. I don't know where to go from here now. Im really solid in LR and LG, but Reading Comp kills my score, consistently getting -7. Can anyone help me, or is anyone interested in being a study buddy?

There's still time! Drilling as much as possible before June!

I swear I remember learning in one of the lessons that the lawgic if A then B and C can be rewritten as if A and B then C and vise versa but I can't find that lesson anywhere and am not sure if I just made that rule up in my head. Is this lawgic logical?

Hi,

This is a question about an answer choice like that of PT62 S2 Q20.

It's: The younger a universe is, the brighter the stars are.

Do these relationships work similarly like conditionals, in that only after concluding that the universe is younger, we can say the brighter its stars are?

i.e. you can't see a situation that the stars are brighter, therefore conclude that the universe is younger with this type of relationship?

Thank you.

I see people say they "drill sections" but it doesn't even look like 7Sage has the option of drilling an entire section without actually opening up a whole test. How would I drill, for example, an LR section from an actual test? How do you (person reading this) do it? I get that there are filters on the Practice > Drills but I don't want just random questions with tags, I want to drill a legit section for a test to make sure I don't muddy up a bunch of tests if that makes sense.

I have been immensely stressed about this test. It has monopolized my thoughts since I took it last Nov. and didn't score that well. However, if any of you are like me, maybe it will help to hear this: you ARE capable. Put your game face on, and show these test-makers who the real boss is. Know that your knowledge and preparation will not fail you on test day. The hard work you put in will pay off! Keep striving and keep hoping, because you can achieve anything you put your mind to. Best of luck to all of us next month and to those in months to come. LET'S DO THIS!!!

We've added new lessons on LSAT writing to the curriculum! For those of you taking the test in August 2024 or later, LSAC is making some changes to the writing section. (Here's the official announcement from LSAC in case you missed it: https://www.lsac.org/blog/new-approach-lsat-writing-will-debut-july-31-2024)

In order to help you prepare for the updated writing format, we've introduced three new lessons to the curriculum:

https://classic.7sage.com/progress/#lsat-writing-august-2024-and-later

(NOTE: To see the new lessons, you must be using v2 of the core curriculum. If you're not sure how to access v2, see here: https://classic.7sage.com/accessing-ccv2/)

Lastly, if you're planning on taking the June 2024 LSAT, fear not! The old writing curriculum isn't going anywhere. You can continue using it.

I just finished this test and spent a lot of time on this question. B seems like the obvious correct answer at first (and is the correct answer), but the argument about efforts being wasted on protecting endangered species' NATURAL habitats is, in my opinion, unaffected by the creation of an animal refuge. The establishment of an animal refuge seems to me like an obviously distinct effort than one that is protecting a natural habitat. By it needing to be established and the word "refuge", it seems artificial by definition.

Can someone help me understand this?

I often have trouble with parallel reasoning and this one is throwing me. SOS

So my April LSAT score was a bust, so going to gear up to take it in June. Any recommendations for a 6 week study sprint? My best section is Logic Games so truly going to be my last time to take the test with the best conditions possible. I studied a couple hours 6 days a week from February - April (with tutoring) and was pretty consistently scoring above what I got on the April test. Think I got tripped up just through general test-day anxiety (and what I thought was a super difficult RC section). Should I just try to take as many PTs as possible the next 6 weeks? Should I do more drills? Go back to some of the basics? Little lost here.

Truly so frustrated by my April score and June will be unfortunately my 4th time taking the test, so any words of wisdom or success stories to make me feel some hope would be lovely.
