So, I've already gone through equations on powerscore and manhattan prep.

Let's say Ppp was $100 20 years ago, and now $10

while tpp was $8 20 years ago, and now $11(as it doesn't say how much it had increased)

20 yrs ago, tpp was way cheaper than Ppp and it was more than10 times of tpp.

Still, currently Ppps offer a less expensive approach than tpp.

So my question would be, not knowing the increase rate of TPP, why do we have to assume that TPP*10 > Ppp 20 years ago?

Hey guys! I noticed on my last exam that I had trouble differentiating between the logical indicators, "requires" and "is required by." Can anyone help me out?

Hi, does anyone know how to sort exclusively for correlation-causation questions in the question bank? Thanks!

Any tips on how to get from -4/-5 down to -1/-2 on LR?

Thanks!

Hi everyone! I'm currently struggling getting SA and NA Qs correctly and wanted to ask what your study strategy is to understanding the concept of SA and NA Qs? And what do you think about before answering these the questions?

When a sentence begins with "Unless", does the beginning of that sentence become the necessary condition, and you would then negate the second half of the sentence? #help

Anyone? :'(

Hello everyone! I took the August Flex as my first LSAT attempt, and so I have the option to preview my score before deciding whether to keep or cancel the score. I did very badly and am quite disappointed, will definitely be retaking it but I was wondering if there was any negatives for law schools if I do cancel the score? There seems to be some type of popular consensus to not cancel the score but considering this is a new feature I figured I'd just ask! I'd appreciate any advice or recommendations, thank you!

PT 63/ LR 7/ (C)

I fully understand why (B) is an answer, but I think (C) is also plausible.

The argument is talking about 'symptom' and (A), (B), (D) and (E) are about 'symptom'.

(C) is about 'host animal' not 'symptom'. Isn't it flawed?

Why are answer choices A and D incorrect? Thanks in advance!

I've been drilling PT 35-end, I'm currently almost at 50, but I've struck a string of just not very challenging games, or at most 1 challenging game per section. I eyeballed the difficulty based on 7sage rating, and a lot of these games have 2/5 difficulty with maybe one having 3 or 4/5. This rating is mostly consistent for the most recent PT's (with exception of the awful flower game section).

I guess what I'm asking or what I may inevitably find out is are more recent games either significantly different or harder than those in the 40's or 50's? I almost feel like I'm wasting my time drilling 40's and 50's given that they all seem not very challenging.

When I did PT 66 Game 1, the last rule was confusing:

"J must meet on an earlier day of the week than O."

Why is it not "J _ O" but it is JO, since it said: AN earlier day?

Thank you

Hi all - does anyone have any good strategies for taking notes/marking for RC on the LSAT Flex? Usually RC is my strongest score when I'm taking the test on paper, but having to read on a screen is really screwing me up. I'm taking the October LSAT (trying to raise my score from August) and really need to increase my accuracy on RC. Appreciate any tips!

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to better approach the Argument Part Questions? I feel like they are "freebies" yet giving me a hard time. #help

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for a tutor for a few sessions on reading comp. before the October LSAT. I am scoring around 160 right now with the majority of my incorrect answers (Usually -10 to -15) from RC so I'm hoping to make some improvements before the test.

Thanks,

Marcello

Does anyone know of a good reading comprehension tutor? This seems to be the one section I can't seem to master and would love for someone to help me figure out how to improve on this section.

I'm looking for an RC study partner or 2 where we go over at least 1 passage in depth every other night leading up to the October exam so we can all become more consistent in our strategies and answers. I'm PTing in the mid 160's but scored below that on the August exam so I'd like a study partner who is in the same range as me and dedicated to improving. We've got this!

Hi all I am really struggling with the games section. I have foolproofed all the games from 1-35 and 60-70 and am still really struggling on my pt’s. I just can not seem to get better than -6/7 and am feeling kind of hopeless and not sure of what else to do. I continue foolproofing the above games during the week between practice tests but it just does not seem to be helping my performance much on new pt’s. Any suggestions on what to do would be very much appreciated!

Hey everybody, If anyone needs any help with LG I can help increase your score! I’ve done all the available games through 7Sage (I think 380 games in total). Please please message me if you need help!

I'm beyond excited. It feels so surreal. I'm positive I couldn't have gotten this score without 7sage, especially on Logic Games. I'm gonna miss J.Y.'s voice!

Title pretty much says it.

My study schedule right now is prep-tests Monday and Friday, RC, LG and LR practice Tuesday-Thursday and Saturday. I just scored a 162 on the August Flex but need at least a 165 for my target school (Arizona State). My weakness is always RC. I tend to miss 5-8 questions there on my prep tests and I know that is holding me back from getting higher scores. I always emphasize RC practice on my off-preptest days and put more time into RC than the other two, simply because it is my weakest section.

Does anybody have tips for getting better at RC, other than practicing passages over and over? It is very possible that I just need more practice but I figured it was worth reaching out to the community to see if you guys/gals have any other strategies that work for you!

Appreciate any insight here, thank you in advance!

I just wanted to put this here to end off my LSAT journey right. I started studying using 7sage in April. I studied full time, almost 7 hours a day every day for months and ended up with a 165 on my first try. I wanted to put this here to reinforce the fact that studying pays off. If you follow the core curriculum and work hard you will get the score you want. I only needed a 158 for my school of choice and scored 7 points higher because of this community and platform. Thank you so much 7sage!!! I will continue to recommend this incredible network to all of my friends.

hi guys, just my score an hour ago and i am insanely upset, disappointed, and angry at myself. i started at a 144 and i received a 159 on the august test. i know there are worse scores, but i had been studying for 6 months for 6-8 hours a day and when i walked out of the test, i really thought i did at least above 160. i felt good about it, so i just dont understand what happened. i had been pt'ing 160-165 and br 166-174. i am so upset and i dont even know how i will bring myself to feel encouraged to study for the november exam, as i feel like ill just be disappointed again.

now here i am, gonna waste my whole friday crying about the score and drinking at 1130am...happy score release day lol

i hope that the rest of you are drinking because you got what you wanted, or wasting away ur friday because u got ur goal score and deserve a day off.

thanks for reading

I had a 140's diagnostic around January 2020 and was stuck in the 160's since at least March 2020 (with an occasional 170+ score but these were on older pre-J07 tests only-- I only got one 170 score on newer PT)

Like many of you, I was aiming for a 170+ score on the real LSAT, but I was scared as hell because I was stuck in the mid-160's for sooooo long; to be exact, I was stuck at 166 for almost every single preptest in the 70's and 80's

After I took the 2020 August LSAT I continued to study assuming I was going to have to retake for October, and my score actually dropped from 166 to 164 during these past 2 weeks in the last few preptests I took; it made me so sad and scared

Just found out I got a 170 today

So relieved...

P.S. For those who wanted to know how I studied, I have used 7sage (obviously) but never did the CC; I had one hour of tutoring but the tutor just didn't work for me, and I am cash-strapped, so I didn't hire a tutor ever again

In addition-- here are my 2 cents:

Contrary to popular belief, the LSAT is incredibly formulaic; so even if you have no natural LSAT gift (like me), by recognizing what wrong answers look like and what right answers look like, the LSAT becomes almost like math

LEARN from your mistakes; and when I say learn, I don't just mean understand why each answer is right and why each answer is wrong; go one step further by learning WHY you thought an answer was wrong (when it was actually right) and vice versa, and then write down what you learned in a journal and review that journal so that you don't miss questions like that ever again

so many questions on the actual test I think I got right simply because I spent hours/days/WEEKS trying to fully understand a few really hard problems (especially in LR); as a result, on test day, there were so many questions where, while none of the answers looked right, I just picked an answer based on pattern recognition of wrong answer choices that I wrote down in my LSAT journal

it is not about how many PT's you take, but how well you review; the 2 weeks before the LSAT, I spent the entire time just making sure I fully understood PT 88 in its 100% entirety; apparently doing that worked

And lastly, THANK YOU to everyone on this forum who has answered my LSAT questions-- I couldn't have done it without you all

A long and hard 8 months and I'm finally done studying for the LSAT. It was my dream throughout this study experience to be able to post something like this. I am absolutely thrilled to see this score today, it is the most fulfilling experience I've had, to see my hard work worth it in the end.

Thank you so much JY for making me a logic games pro and being an absolutely fantastic instructor. Will happily share with anyone how I studied!!!! :) Good luck to anyone studying -- You got this!!!!!
